South Carolina Association of Counties

Fifty Years of Local Leadership

ADCO’s relationship with the South Carolina Association of Counties dates back to 2017, when we helped update their logo for the association’s own 50th anniversary — a project that also included a printed history in the form of a President’s Report and an accompanying anniversary video. So when SCAC set out to mark a second, larger milestone in 2025 — the 50th anniversary of the Home Rule Act, the 1975 law that transformed South Carolina’s 46 counties from state-controlled entities into self-governing local leaders — they came back to ADCO. We designed a new commemorative anniversary logo and banner-up displays for SCAC’s annual conference, then took the lead on a documentary-style video honoring the occasion: outlining the story, coordinating interview subjects and videography, and conducting the interviews with state and county leaders reflecting on home rule’s lasting impact.
