Frankie Lawson, President
Frankie grew up in Greenville, near Judson mill in the 60’s and 70’s. Life was very simple in those days. She moved to Dacusville in 1995 looking for that same quiet and simplistic life. She found it! She worked as a Registered Nurse for approximately 20 years while raising 2 teenage girls and a son all on her own since 2008.
Frankie has been involved with Dacusville Community Center and was one of the original Volunteer members of the Dacusville Library in 2015 when it opened. She has been Pack Leader in Boy Scouts with her son for several years. She served as Vice President of the Community Center for four years before being elected to the position of President.
Frankie is active in the Community Center group Dacusville Yarn Works. The group of ladies make and donate Yarn Crafted items to several Schools, Nursing Homes, Cancer Centers and Military.
As President of the Dacusville Community Club, Frankie hopes to be on site for “office hours” on Tuesday and Thursday from 1:00pm – 4:00pm each week. Please give her a call at 864-395-5044 if you’d like to set up a time or confirm her availability.

Elizabeth Vitanovec, Secretary
Hello! My name is Elizabeth Vitanovec. I was born and raised in Northeastern Pennsylvania. I moved to Greenville, South Carolina during the summer of 2015 for a middle school teaching job. This school year is my 11th year teaching 7th graders math and science. I have my teaching degree from Kutztown University, my masters from Clemson University and this year I have embarked on the adventure of working toward my doctorate at the University of South Carolina.
My connection to the Dacusville area is through Safe Haven & Educational Adventures, Inc. I began volunteering there around 9 years ago. I have worked with them to help clean and care for the animals, plan and host multiple fundraisers, expand their educational outreach by being the head of the education committee, and much more. About two years ago I joined the Community Center and this year will be one year since Safe Haven and I have began holding events in the Educational Adventure Room.
Within my short time being active in many of the events that the center hosts along with my time running Safe Haven’s Educational Center room at the Community Center, I have made a number of connections and friends. I am looking forward to serving as the Secretary.
