Sumter Today: Sumter High Celebrates 38 Years of Gary Nelson

Posted

Gary Nelson has been a pillar in the Sumter High School community for decades. A surprise party was held for him at Patriot Park to celebrate his retirement and honor his impact on our city's students and athletes. The Athletic Training room at Sumter High was officially named the Gary G. Nelson Athletic Training Room, and Mayor Merchant read a proclamation from the City of Sumter, South Carolina establishing June 3rd as Gary Nelson Day.

Sumter Today is presented by the Sumter Opera House, University of South Carolina Sumter, and Prisma Health Tuomey Hospital.
