C O M H ere we are, having completed another year of Best of Mount Pleasant, and we are thrilled! The turnout in this seventh year was outstanding, with 52,450 votes cast to support our readers’ favorite business, places and people. Our enthusiasm aside for the growing success of our annu- al “Best Of ” compe- tition to rally for our local businesses and services, you – the voters and win- ners – should be proud of the support our com- munity is so richly steeped in and proud of the patrons who care enough to frequent and support their “bests.” You should be proud to be Mount Pleasant. We all know finding that perfect spot to change your oil, get a great haircut, walk the dog, go on a date or grab a quick bite to eat with a bunch of rowdy kids can be challenging. But we all grow to find our favorites … or our “bests,” if you will. So based on the votes we received, please take this as your insider’s guide this year to all the best Mount Pleasant and the East Cooper area have to offer. Maybe you even recognize some of the familiar faces on our cover from all of the places you’ve inevitably stopped into throughout this past year. After all, these people are the very fabric of our society. (A special thank you to Jean’s Bridal and Consign Haven for providing the attire and props for our photo shoot.) So if you happen to see Jessica Chandler with Kickin’ Country 92.5; JD Zubia with Palmetto Christian Academy; Pediatric Dentist Dr. Randy Pagenkopf; Jeremy Ellisor with Convergent Finan- cial Group; Erin Kienzle with WCIV News 4; Christine Calcavec- chia with Burtons Grill; Jerry Jenkins with Heritage Trust Federal Credit Union; Dean Ste- phens with WCIV News 4; Emily Schutte with Rock Solid Gym- nastics; Jim Clark with C&C Myers Heat- ing A/C, Plumbing & Drains; Wade Boals with Salterwater Cowboys; Kristin Villa with Ziggy’s Dog Parlor; or Wes Sellew with Renasant Mortgage, make sure to mention how spectacular they look on the cover and what a great job they’re doing at their respective businesses. We were honored to have them all. Now onto the reading. I hope you enjoy perusing each category, written in a lighthearted, upbeat manner by the talents of Colin McCandless, Bill Farley, Anne Toole and Denise K. James to best take you on a tour through all our town has to offer, from the Best Place to View the Rav- enel Bridge to the Best Place to Go for a Run to the Best Happy Hour.
