On behalf of the Bamberg Board of Public Works, we would like to sincerely thank Ms. Douglas with Denmark Olar High School for inviting us to participate in your Career Day on yesterday. It was a pleasure to be part of such a meaningful event.

We truly enjoyed the opportunity to engage with your students, share information about the work we do, and discuss potential career paths in public service. The students were attentive, curious, and a joy to speak with, which made the experience even more rewarding. I would also like to thank Rosebud and Josh for coming with me; the both of you did an excellent job.

Well…the good thing is that the Winter Weather isn’t projected to be ice. The bad is that it will be very cold and snow can create dangerous driving conditions. Bamberg is projected to see 2-4” of snow.

Prepare by insulating exposed plumbing. Seal around drafty doors and windows. Lower the thermostat a few degrees to lower energy consumption. Dress in layers to stay warm.

As always, follow State and Local Emergency Services for Weather guidance. Bamberg BPW will be ready to assist your utility needs. Call (803) 245-5128!
