Here's your local news at a glance for Sunday, the 22nd of June.
Good morning, Rock Hill.
🏘️ Community
A lottery ticket worth $180,000 remains unclaimed after matching all five winning numbers drawn on June 19 at the Flying J on Mt. Holly Road — players have 180 days to claim their prize.
A local man won $1 million from a scratch-off ticket purchased at Quick Food Mart on East Main St — he plans to use his winnings to pay off his house.
🎭 Culture
A local family, led by Andrew Lazenby, has preserved the Fishing Creek Place Cemetery in York County by marking 144 graves with slate headstones — the project included a ground-penetrating radar survey, a legal easement, and outreach to descendants.
The cemetery now features a protective fence decorated with West African symbols — it is open for free public tours to honor its historical legacy.
🏛️ Government
The South Carolina House approved H.
3021, the Small Business Regulatory Freedom Act, to cut state agency rules by 25% and let small business owners contest unfair rules. The Senate will review the bill soon—small businesses may gain more flexibility if it becomes law.
🏥 Health
River District Smiles Dentistry in Rock Hill is expanding its implant options—using sedation dentistry to boost comfort and deliver natural-looking teeth to patients.
The clinic also offers flexible payment plans to make effective tooth replacement accessible for local residents.
🏈 Sports
ESPN will launch its '50 States in 50 Days' SportsCenter tour on June 27 with a special edition hosted by Scott Van Pelt in Washington, D.C.
The tour will include the American Cornhole League World Championships in Rock Hill from July 28 to August 3—where live finals will be broadcast at noon—to celebrate local sports traditions.
Alex Fair has resigned from his role as head basketball coach at Great Falls High School to accept a new opportunity at Rock Hill High School.
During his six-year tenure he led the team to five region championships and a state championship — his resignation comes just before the team’s home opener against York on Tuesday.
