History, Tea & Buc-ee's with Storehouse Tours! The Pee Dee History Gallery in Florence is the largest gallery space in the facility, comprising 3,300 sq. ft. of exhibit space. This permanent collection gallery occupies the entire second floor, east wing of the building. Artifacts on display are supported by historical images and narrative interpretation, providing a comprehensive introduction to the Pee Dee region from prehistory to the present. Highlights in this gallery include: Cretaceous period reptile material, an 18 ft. tall Ancient Bald Cypress trunk sub-fossil, Native American and Colonial period artifacts, Civil War artifacts from the Florence Stockade prison camp and Confederate Naval Yard at Mars Bluff, artifacts related to life and career of former FBI agent and Florence County native, Melvin Purvis and fragments of the MK-6 atomic bomb which was accidentally dropped on the Mars Bluff community in 1958. You also have time to explore the other Art Galleries at the Museum if you would like. We will enjoy a true Victorian Tea which includes a pot of tea, assorted finger sandwiches, a scone with Devonshire Cream and Lemon Curd, and more! And a visit to Florence would not be complete without a stop at Buc-ee?s for some shopping and to grab a snack like Beaver Chips, Beef Jerky, House-made Fudge or a Brisket Sandwich for the ride home!

The Swamp Fox Players in Georgetown presents Nunsense, directed by Karen Morello. The play follows the capers of the Order of the Little Sisters of Hoboken as they take over the church to hold a fundraising variety show to raise money to bury several sisters, who were accidentally poisoned by their cook. They must inter the nuns before the health inspector comes and finds the dead nuns in their freezer! Fraught with hilarity, both Catholic and otherwise, the audience watches as the nuns try to perform their planned performance amidst chaos and calamity.
