At Thursday's meeting we had dealers from as far west as Aiken, up to Newberry and east to Sumter. The independents were there and the chain retailers as well.
With the trend toward fewer retail locations, members decided to combine the Aiken and Sumter Chapters with Midlands for a year or two.

Mark Eberflus, MHISC's Midlands Chapter President is a naturally sunny person who brings a lot of positive energy the the meetings. He put together a great agenda for Wednesday's meeting.
John Owen from MHISC Member Lender SCB&T gave members an insider's view on how retailers can increase the odds in getting their deals approved. I gave a report on how to use the First-Time Homebuyer Tax Credit to draw traffic and sell homes. We're going to expand on that subject with lots of proven marketing ideas at MHISC's Convention in July.
Speaking of the convention, Mitch Howard won the door prize, a free night's stay at the Westin Resort & Spa at MHISC's annual meeting in July.
Just a personal note, our thoughts and prayers are with the Howards as Ellen goes through her cancer treatments.
Here are some photos from the meeting.
Coming up:
MHISC's Beaufort Chapter meets Tuesday the 7th and the Charleston Chapter meets the next day on the 8th.
