The Leap Year Triplets
- Details
- By Press Release
Triplets, Harris, Elizabeth, and Andrew Rowe will have a special birthday on Wednesday, February 29, a Leap Year birthday! Born on February 29, 2004 at MUSC in Charleston, SC, these spontaneous triplets are very rare. The odds of being born on Leap Day are 1 in 1,461 and the odds of being a spontaneous triplet is 1 in 8,100 births. Therefore, the odds of being a spontaneous triplet born naturally (not via C-section) on Leap Year are virtually non-existent; the Rowe triplets may be the only set in the world. Born full-term at 37.5 weeks after an uncomplicated pregnancy, the healthy triplets at almost 17 pounds collectively went home after 2 days of "rooming" in with mom and dad, Jeff and Kelly Rowe formerly of Mt. Pleasant now livng in the upstate of SC. They continue to be active 8 year olds, home-schooled, and involved in sports, cub scouts, church, and their large family of nine.

Scouting for Food Campaign
- Details
- By Henry Pickard
The number of young boys from Boy Scout Troop 107 in Taylors, SC, just about matched the number of degrees the thermometer registered. It was in the low 20s Sunday morning and the pavement in front of Taylors First Baptist Church were cold and unforgiving. But the boys were there, in full uniform, and smiling! It was the second part of Scouting for Food Campaign, an annual event by Scout Troops around the country that provides a collection of non-perishable food stuffs for distribution to families in need. The Scouts met church-goers as they made their way to the building with plastic and paper bags holding food. They were all smiles as the Scouts approached them, and cheerfully asked, “May I take that for you sir or ma’am?” It was genuine American generosity with a helping “Doing a Good Deed” on the side.
