Summary
Virginia McClure used her three minutes during a petitioner slot to reintroduce herself as a candidate for the South Carolina House, District 18, highlighting land‑conservation work including a voluntary ag zoning win covering about 2,800 acres.
Virginia McClure addressed the Greer City Council to reintroduce herself as a candidate for the South Carolina House of Representatives in District 18 and provided her address for the record (600 Lister Road, Landrum/Gowansville). She detailed local conservation work and organizing that led to a 100% voluntary agricultural zoning classification for roughly 2,800 contiguous acres and cited a successful trust purchase of about 365 acres now slated to become a state park.
McClure said she would not offer "empty promises," adding, "I am a hard worker who can get things done and will be visible and available to the whole community." She framed land, water and wildlife protection as high priorities and noted ongoing work with county partners to protect Highway 11 from development pressures.
