  1. Spring cleaning in Myrtle Beach! Area volunteers rolled up their sleeves and pick up litter in Myrtle Beach this weekend during the “Cleanin' for the Season" event to get the area ready for the upcoming influx of visitors.

  • North Myrtle Beach Police: "Let us introduce you to our B-Rotation Swing Squad and Night Squad. Our swing and night squads are made up of dedicated officers who keep our city safe from the afternoon into the wee hours of the night while most of us are sleeping. " (North Myrtle Beach Police via Facebook)
  • The Humane Society of North Myrtle Beach: "Today’s featured #PetOfTheDay is Molly! Her adoption fee is being sponsored today by Bully's Pub. Miss Molly has been bounced around since she was just a puppy simply because no one would commit to forever for this girl. Molly just wants to be your companion. She'd be an excellent buddy to have for hiking or running, or if you enjoy cooking, Molly is more than happy to help out in the kitchen and sample your cooking. She prefers to give all of her attention to just humans, so she will need to be the only pet in the home. Please help us find Molly’s long, overdue home! To meet Molly, please call 843-249-4948 to schedule an appointment, or you can submit an application at https://humanesocietynmb.org/dog-adoption-form/."
