Darlington Mayor Curtis Boyd (at left, on ladder) helps adjust the metal awning over the front of Classic Cuts & Style, 121 S. Main Street in Darlington. The owner thought about replacing the awning with a new, modern-style fixture. However, after consideration and discussion with the mayor, he decided to refurbish the vintage metal awning, helping to maintain downtown Darlington’s tradition and history. PHOTO BY STEPHAN DREW
