Gov. Mark Sanford will get a ribbing for a good cause this week.

The Indian Waters Council, Boy Scouts of America, will “roast” the governor at 6:30 p.m. Tuesday.

This is the third year for the roast, according to council spokeswoman Kristen Gilliam. Richland County Sheriff Leon Lott was roasted the first year; last year it was Mayor Bob Coble.

A few of this year’s roasters are Tom Davis, co-chief of staff for Sanford; Will Folks, the governor’s press secretary; David Wilkins, speaker of the state House of Representatives; and James Smith, the House minority leader.

During the past two years, the Boy Scouts have raised about $25,000 during these evenings of “lighthearted fun,” Gilliam said. Fittingly, a barbecue dinner will be served during the roast.

The event will be at the Jamil Temple at 206 Jamil Road, off I-26. Tickets are $100 per person or $800 for a full table of eight. For tickets and other information, call (803) 750-9868, ext. 108.
