It was like when I walked in, the house hugged me,” Ferebee said. McLeod said she knew it was the right home for Ferebee (Continued on page 4)

Lucy’s Boutique in Landrum adds option to local apparel market by Samantha Hurst
Summer style in our area received a boost from the arrival of Lucy’s Boutique earlier this year. Mother and daughter duo Sonya and Lindsay Dobbins launched the new clothing boutique in Landrum March 31. “This is something I’ve always wanted to do,” said Lindsay, who graduated about a year ago from Chapman High School. “We’ve been really excited by the response.” Sonya Dobbins said they wanted the clothing store to be accessible to a wide range of customers – young or mature – and not shy anyone away with prices. “People have taken to us well and I think it’s because our price point is attractive,” Sonya said. “I’ve been delighted by how well it’s done.”
The average item in the shop costs about $40. There are items above and below that range as well, depending on what you are looking to buy. Styles inside lean toward youthful and preppy looks, but Sonya and Lindsay said customers of varying age ranges and tastes can find something to meet their needs. “We try not to have the same stuff as other boutiques,” Lindsay said. “Our biggest goal was to provide a place for someone to come in really quick and find an outfit or dress for a wedding or weekend event.” The store’s primary lines include dresses, shoes, jeans, handbags and a variety of accessories. Lucy’s also carries a small collection of men’s clothing from Southern Point Co. and hopes to add Coast apparel in the near future.

Landrum High School’s Hamrick leaves for Chapman High by Joey Millwood
For the first two years Tucker Hamrick taught and coached at Landrum High School, he lived in Landrum athletic director John Cann’s basement. Landrum is like family to Hamrick. That made his decision to leave Landrum for Chapman a tough one. The Cardinal coach has accepted a position to be an assistant principal at Chapman High School. Hamrick has spent the last 12 years at Landrum. “I want to concentrate more on the education side of things,” Hamrick said of the move. That was apparent in his coaching style as well. “As a coach, I tried to teach the kids the sport, not just coach it.”
Hamrick has been the softball Russell Mahaffey said. “Coach Hamrick was a great coach and football offensive coordinator for the last four years so football coach,” Mahaffey said. “He has a great offensive mind.” he will leave a void.

Landrum finished 9-3 last season years ago. Since taking over the softball and Hamrick’s offense was key program, the Lady Cardinals were in the run. The Cardinals have not yet dominant. Landrum won the renamed a new offensive coordi- gion championship every year in nator for the upcoming football Hamrick’s tenure and played for season. That offense, however, the Upper State Championship will remain in place, head coach all four years. He was 75-25 as
coach. “He did a great job with our softball program,” Cann said. “He was close with those girls.” This was the path he wanted his career to take so he’s excited about stepping into the administration, however, there will be plenty to miss. “I’ll miss the games,” he said. “I’ll miss Friday nights and our softball games. I’ll miss everything about it.” The loss of Hamrick is one that Cann sees as bittersweet, considering he rented the basement of the Cann home before he got married. “I feel like he’s a son to me,” Cann said. “We’re going to really miss him, but at the same time we wish him the best.”
