JOHNSONVILLE, S.C. (WPDE) — Drugs and cash were seized from a home in Johnsonville Thursday, according to Florence County Chief Deputy Glen Kirby.

Kirby said a search warrant was served at a home Thursday night on Hanna Lake Road and it led to the seizure of one pound of heroin and 5.6 pounds of meth.

Kirby said they also confiscated $13,000.

He added this investigation is a follow up to the arrest last week of Samuel Earl Ramu.

Deputies said Ramu faces felony drug charges.

"It’s taken a little while to build a case and this case is one that our narcotics agents were working on for a long time," said Kirby.

Kirby said this is a sizable drug bust in a community that’s dealing with a heroin problem.

“You’re not going to set up shop in Florence County. You’re gonna have to set up shop somewhere else. I mean, we’re never going to stop all the drug dealing, but we’re going to make it inconvenient for them to set up shop and make money off of our kids and our people in Florence County," Kirby said.

Back in August, deputies charged seven people in connection with the distribution of meth and heroin.

In 2017, officers arrested 18 suspected heroin dealers in a special operation.

At that time, Johnsonville was dealing with an increase in deaths from overdoses on heroin.

The community rallied together and held town hall meetings and other public events to raise awareness of the problem.

Kirby said they’ll continue to patrol that community in an effort to make a dent in illegal drug activities and save lives.

“No parent in any part of the country should ever have to be told your child has overdosed and I realize that children are choosing to do this, but it’s an addiction. It’s a problem. Addiction ran in my family. It is a problem and these kids can’t help it once they get started, but these guys are going to be out of Florence County. They can’t stay here," Kirby said.

Kirby said the FBI is providing some assistance in these investigations.

JOHNSONVILLE, S.C.(WPDE) — Julius Gamble went missing on August 28, 2014, in the Johnsonville community of Florence County.

Relatives said he was supposed to go visit his aunt but never made it there and hasn't been seen since.

Gamble's mother Harriet Kelly said the past four years have been hard on her family and she'll never give up searching for her son.

"I just need to know where my son is, that's all," said Kelly.

Major Michael Nunn with the Florence County Sheriff's Office said in 2015, deputies had spent hundreds of hours searching for Gamble and even called in outside agencies to help in the investigation.

Shortly after Gamble vanished, deputies named a person of interest in his disappearance, but Nunn said it's not clear what was the outcome of that part of the investigation.

Kelly had invested in billboards over the years, with Gamble's face on them, in an effort to gain leads in his disappearance.

Her family hoped the billboards would have turned up some promising information that could lead to Gamble.

The CUE Center for Missing Persons has listed Gamble's case on their website, as well as other missing persons advocacy groups across the county.

Kelly is just hoping to one day find her son, who she loves with all of her heart.

Nunn released the following statement about the investigation:

"Clearly the investigation into Mr. Gamble missing is ongoing. Throughout this entire matter, we've followed every lead that's come our way. We welcome any new leads from anyone and we will follow them. We certainly request the public's assistance with any additional information they may have."

If you have any information regarding the disappearance of Julius "Juju" Gamble, you're asked to call the Florence County Sheriff's Office at (843) 665-2121, ext. 360, Crime Stoppers of the Pee Dee at 1-888-CRIME-SC or “Submit-A-Tip” on FCSO app for iPhone or Android telephones.

‘I wanted to prove a point to girls that it’s okay to play:’ Johnsonville 8th grader only girl on football team

JOHNSONVILLE, S.C. (WMBF) - If you look closely at the sidelines of any Johnsonville High B team football game, a long braided ponytail should catch your eye.

‘I’d watch it on TV and then my dad would be outside throwing the football with me,” 8th grader Addie Harris said.

She’s the Golden Flashes’ kick return team - and she’s the only girl on the roster.

Her dad, Ron Harris said she started out playing in the recreation league in Florence County before she was old enough to play at school.

“When she finally gets to lock one and participate in the play, and do a good job, and then hearing her reaction of their faces when they realize it’s a girl who just laid them out,” he said.

Between all the buzz cuts and mullets on Johnsonville’s B team, one braided ponytail sticks out. Addie Harris,the team’s kick returner, is the team’s only girl. When a women’s pro player found that out- she drove 6 hours to see her play. Her story tonight on @wmbfnews pic.twitter.com/mdyebmo6Xs

— Katherine Phillips WMBF (@KatPhillipsTV) October 22, 2021

She followed Lois Cook, a women’s professional tackler player for the DC Divas to know she watches her videos on Instagram and Tik Tok about being a girl and playing football, and that she too puts on her helmet and pads and gets on the field.

She sent her a message, never thinking she’d even get a response. But she did.

“She sent me her picture and told me that she played football! And I was like ‘where are you? I’m on the way,” Cook said.

A few messages back and forth and a six-hour drive later, Lois made it to Addie’s game. She said she just wanted to let her know she can do anything she sets her mind to, including playing football.

“If I can help or support one girl, then it’s all worth it. There’s a lot of debate sometimes with football if girls should play or if they shouldn’t play but they should know they are supported!” Cook said.

Cook said when she first started playing she was told she couldn’t, and is proud to see more girls start to enter the sport.

“Learning how to be a team player, and a leader and those are the very important things that we want girls that we can do this too and it’s not only about playing sports it’s about learning life lessons, that’s gonna keep you for a long long time,” Cook added.

Her mom, Samantha Fox said she couldn’t be any more proud of her daughter.

“I never thought I’d be here, watching my daughter play football while one cheerleads, but it’s the best thing ever. If that’s what they want to do, doesn’t matter if they’re a girl or a boy. You just show them, you can do anything,” Fox said.

“I wanted to prove a point to girls that it’s okay to play and it’s not just a boys sport. I don’t plan on stopping,” Addie said.

Addie said she’s already considering playing football long-term.

JOHNSONVILLE, S.C. – There was a calmness Monday at Johnsonville Football Stadium as players left practice. Holed up in the fieldhouse were Flashes coach Ken Cribb and his assistants drawing the latest X’s and Os for Friday’s 7:30 p.m. Class A lower-state final against Cross.

It will be anything but calm when toe meets leather Friday, with the winner advancing to the state championship game. If the Flashes win this one, they would be in a state championship final for the first time since 2012 under then-coach Lewis Lineberger.

For Cribb, with a win, he would be in his first state final as a coach since 2011 at Hemingway.

“We get to play Friday at home; that’s special,” said Cribb, whose Flashes are 12-0 after last week’s 14-0 win against Lamar. “The kids have worked awfully hard, and they deserve this opportunity and I’m excited for them.”

Cross (11-2), meanwhile, is on a seven-game winning streak and features dual-threat quarterback Tyler Mungin He has passed for 625 yards and seven touchdowns (along with seven interceptions) and rushed for 426 and seven more scores. Running back Carmello Montgomery, meanwhile, has 1,125 yards and 23 touchdowns.

“Cross has a really good team,” Cribb said. “This late in the season, everybody’s good. They’re big and fast and physical. And, they’re well coached. We’ll have to play well to have a chance.”

Johnsonville got this far with a powerful running game by Daquan Burroughs and impressive game management by quarterback Malik Shippy. Burroughs has rushed for 1,737 yards and 22 touchdowns, and Shippy 257 and three. Through the air, Shippy has accounted for 1,103 and 14.

“Mailik just needs to run the offense and take care of the ball and be the field general that he has been,” Cribb said. “He gets us lined up on Friday nights and gives us a chance to run the play like it’s designed. And Daquan is a good one. Everybody knows as he goes, we go. I’m sure there are a lot of eyes on him. There have been eyes on him all year.

“But we have made this thing work so far,” he added. “Maybe, we’ve got a couple of more times in us.”

But that’s not the only key to the Flashes’ success. Johnsonville’s defense has come to life this season, returning an interception for a TD against Lamar.

Sophomore Landyn Cribb leads the Flashes with 99 tackles and also has a sack, two forced fumbles and an interception. Kavontre Singletary has 92 tackles and two forced fumbles. On top of that, he has recovered five fumbles and intercepted two passes.

“Defensively, we were really good last week,” Ken Cribb said. “They were, too, but we were really good. We didn’t make the big mistakes at crucial times like they did, and that was the difference in the game.”

JOHNSONVILLE, S.C. — The Wellman Golf Club in Johnsonville, closed since 2010, reopens to the public on June 1.

The golf club, formerly known as The Wellman Country Club, was bought by Florence County and leased to the city of Johnsonville in 2021. Since then, the city and county have been working to improve the course, which is finally ready for a soft launch.

The Wellman Golf Course Committee, organized by the city of Johnsonville, finalized the opening day and rates at a meeting on Wednesday.

“This is definitely a soft opening, and then we’ll do the major opening later,” said City Administrator Holly Swann.

Those who wish to play golf will have two options: pay the “rack rate,” which is how much a single round of 18 holes costs, or pay for a yearly or monthly membership.

The rack rate changes based on time of year, time of day, day of the week and whether or not the golfer lives nearby.

For those who live in Florence County or within 30 miles of the golf club, the rates for a weekday from June to September are:

In the morning: $29.95

From noon to twilight: $24.95

At twilight: $19.95

Rates on the weekends under the same conditions are:

In the morning: $39.95

From noon to twilight: $34.95

At twilight: $24.95

Starting soon, golfers will be able to book tee times at golfnow.com.

Memberships can be paid either yearly or monthly, but each is different. Those who purchase the yearly membership get unlimited golf, carts and range balls plus 10% off merchandise and food and preferred pricing on future renewals.

Yearly prices are split up into two categories: weekday-only memberships and seven-days-a-week memberships. Prices of the weekday only are:

Single: $1,995

Couple: $2,495

Family: $2,995

Prices for every-day memberships are a thousand dollars more at each category.

Those who choose to pay monthly do not get the unlimited range balls and are charged a $15 fee each round they use a cart. Monthly prices are also split into weekday and all-week categories for pricing.

Weekday-only monthly prices are:

Single: $75

Couple: $99

Family: $120

All-week prices are:

Single: $99

Couple: $120

Family: $139

While the course is mostly complete, a few things still need to be done. According to Swann, a golf cart shed has not yet been built and likely will not be finished until after the opening.

Food service contracts for the clubhouse also fell through, so the committee discussed bringing in food trucks every day and serving beer, wine and snacks in the clubhouse instead of having a full restaurant.

“I think we certainly need to open to generate funds,” said City Attorney Shannon Prosser. “It’s a delicate balance, because you don’t want to open when you’re not ready, but you want to open because you need to be ready.”

Four positions in the clubhouse still need to be filled, but all of the outside employees have been hired, according to Harold Perry. He is the club manager and works at DTE Golf, which the city hired to manage the club.

The Wellman Golf Club operated as the Wellman Country Club from 1968 to 2010, when the company that owned it went bankrupt.

The course changed hands a number of times before Florence County bought the property for $575,000 in March 2021. The county leases the property to the city of Johnsonville for 5% of the gross revenue of the course, including pro shop revenue.

To rebuild the course, the city used its share, $3.9 million, of the county’s third penny sales tax.

The city then awarded a $3.59 million contract to Southeastern Golf to build and improve the golf course.
