Editing Theatre Exhibit (section)

=== '''DRACE LEGACY''' ===
This panel doesn’t really do the Drace family justice, but that’s because we’re going to have a full exhibit specifically about Charlie Drace in the main exhibition hall. “Uncle Charlie” was an impactful figure in early Greer: on city council, running an early newspaper (before the Greer Citizen started), playing baseball (see the “Fats vs. Leans” photo), running movie theatres — but most importantly, capturing dozens of Greer’s earliest photographs and history.

Similarly, the panel doesn’t go into detail about the Grand Theatre burning down in 1928, but that was one of a long series of devastating fires that consumed most wood buildings in downtown Greer. These will be covered in a new exhibit on police and fire, which will probably be the next major exhibit to open after this one.
