The 2026 Horry County Museum Documentary Film Series continues with G-Man: The Rise & Fall of Melvin Purvis, part of the Carolina Stories Series by SCETV. The name, Melvin Horace Purvis, to many people today, means nothing. But it was not so long ago that Purvis was a household name, and over 260,000 boys and girls were digging through boxes of Post Toasties breakfast cereal to get their very own decoder rings and Junior G-Man badges. Purvis, the Timmonsville native with the unassuming name, skyrocketed to such fame in the 1930s as leader of the FBI team that took down some of the biggest gangsters of his day, including John Dillinger, Baby Face Nelson and Pretty Boy Floyd. His death in 1960 is still shrouded in mystery. Was it a suicide, as first reported? Was it an accidental shooting? Or was there something more sinister behind it? The film is free to the public and will be shown at 1:00 PM, Wednesday, June 10th, at the Horry County Museum, located at 805 Main Street in Conway. The Horry County Museum Documentary Film Matinees will continue throughout 2026. For a list of films, visit our website at www.horrycountymuseum.org.

Since 1980, Conway Riverfest has been a beloved summer tradition, drawing tens of thousands to the heart of the city for a vibrant mix of activities. The celebration will be headlined by live performances from ‘80s rock icons Slaughter and Vixen, with local opening act Badlander setting the stage for an unforgettable night. Formed in the late 1980s, Slaughter rose to fame with hits like “Up All Night” and “Fly to the Angels,” earning multi-platinum success and a loyal fan base with their signature glam metal sound. Vixen, often dubbed “the female Bon Jovi,” broke barriers as one of the most successful all-female rock bands of their era, known for chart-toppers like “Edge of a Broken Heart” and “Cryin’.” Together, these powerhouse acts promise a high-energy soundtrack to a day filled with celebration. 𝐄𝐯𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐬 & 𝐀𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐞𝐬:  Paddle Battle River Races: Back by popular demand, the Paddle Battle River Races will feature three watercraft races (kayak, canoe, paddle board) starting at 10 a.m.  Celebrating America’s 250th Anniversary: The Horry County Historical Society will bring Revolutionary War re-enactors, a living history campsite experience, themed photo booth, a Marsh Tacky (horse) and immersive moments that honor the country’s rich heritage.  Kids Zone: From 11 a.m. to 8 p.m., your kiddos can enjoy a dedicated area featuring bounce houses, water activities, face painting, and a petting zoo, ensuring fun for the youngest attendees for a small fee presented by Thompson Farm & Nursery.  Red, White & Vroom Golf Cart Parade: Beginning at 11:30 a.m., the patriotic Golf Cart Parade will showcase creatively-decorated carts from local businesses and residents.  Stars & Stripes Cornhole Classic: Back for its second year is the cornhole tournament for both backyard and advanced players. Registration will begin at 11 a.m. Bags fly at noon. Both brackets will be a double elimination format, meaning you must lose twice to be out.
