To anyone that lives in the Fort Mill area, or is just thinking about possibly moving to the area....I would like you to be aware of Anne Springs Close. To myself and many others she has made Fort Mill the great place it is to live. She can be spotted around town but more often than not it will be at the Greenway that carries her name that you will see her most often. A woman that could have the world at her feet...yet chooses to spend time teaching children how to ride horses, or often be the one to lead hikes throughout the greenway. To learn more about her there was a recent article in The Herald that can be viewed online....It is titled: Walking the Walk. You may have to register with The Herald prior to reading but I highly recommend it.

Walking the Walk
Before she became the matriarch of South Carolina's textile industry, Anne Springs Close was a wisp of a towheaded girl who played in the woods around Steele Creek, weaving swings from grapevine.
