like a fireworks show. Endangered Arts is pleased to offer a
collection of low country works by this master realist. Call
or visit the gallery to learn more about having him capture
your own personal memory on canvas. Endangered Arts is
located on Hwy 278 in South Island Shopping Center next

 Reasons For All Seasons
O utstanding accommodations, great restaurants, value
driven & stylish shopping, a different golf course for
every day of your visit, many enthusiastic tennis partners
(if you didn’t bring your own), hundreds of tennis courts,
great sailing, fishing & days of play on and in the water,
a plethora of spas to keep you relaxed. Hilton Head
Island has become a year-round vacation choice. More
corporations, associations and groups are taking advan-
tage of the wide variety of activities for families this time
of year as well as other seasons. While you're here, ask
about group rates & attractive off-season rates for
your next visit. Plan to stay an extra day, just for fun.
You’ll be impressed with the professional & helpful staff
to help make your next stay the best one yet.
Did you miss the golden arches usually seen
silhouetted against the sky or dozens of neon signs flash-
ing “Welcome”as you drove onto the island? Not in this
town!! Even the Red Roof Inn doesn’t have a bright red
roof on Hilton Head (they did manage to get the Town to
approve a muted red roof)! Our business community
conforms to very strict building codes & signage (very
few neon lights) that protects the beauty and integrity of
the original plan of development for the Island. If you
have been to Hilton Head Island before, you’ll be sur-
prised to see lots of new development and new shops on
Hwy 278 from Sun City coming toward Hilton Head.
Exit 8 off I-95 has made it much easier to approach the
island directly, and the milemarkers on Island as well as
the Cross Island Expressway (toll) around the island
directly to the Sea Pines Circle, are very helpful as well.
(Trust me! Don’t speed!)
Hilton Head offers different opportunities
each season of the year. There’s always a full calendar
if you want to stay busy; or you may elect to lay back,
relax and enjoy the tranquility our plantation environ-
ment provides. Just a few reasons to visit in even anoth-
er season, consider the following tournaments, events &
seasonal pleasures and this is just the beginning...........

or hotel until 4:00 pm, take a few minutes to look
through “Where and When” and the “Calendar”. Take a
walk on the beach. If you’re hungry, enjoy a sandwich
or hors d'oeuvres, maybe a cool drink. Begin unwind-
ing even before you unpack. Use the coupons!!!
SEE WHERE AND WHEN CALENDAR Islanders get out

some of the clubs. You’ll love the beach, the kayaking,sail-
ing, fishing and all of the fun things on the Jan and Feb

things to keep you busy.

ever. You just won’t believe the fun you’ll have. And the

The List of Things I Should Not Miss
FREE (OR ALMOST FREE
“Today I will commit one random act of senseless kindness”
HECK OUT TIDE CHART and go for a long walk on
C our beautiful beaches, (better yet, ride your bike).
You’ll pass several beautiful hotels, oceanfront homes, &
enjoy the soft breezes you came here for. Tides fluctuate
as much as seven feet. Plan ahead & leave your towels &
picnic supplies far enough back so they won’t get soaked or
washed away. (The tide chart is in the Nautical Notes sec-
tion, or refer to the Table of Contents or see page 70.)
T AKE AN EARLY MORNING WALK ON THE BEACH
or a bike ride. Enjoy coffee at one of the oceanfront
hotels or take your coffee with you. (Check the tide chart
in the Nautical section to see how much beach you’ll have
for walking. High tide is not the best time.) But only
because the water comes up almost to the dunes, and
there’s no point getting your tennis shoes wet. Remember:
NO GLASS ON THE BEACH! Strictly enforced. And it
will NOT BE FREE!
D rive carefully. And please stay within the varying speed
limits. And use your turn signals to indicate you’re
changing lanes. Be especially careful on the Cross Island
Expressway. The speed limit changes dramatically before or
after you cross. Believe me, it will not be free!!!!Those tick-
ets, really make for a bad day!!!Have some change for the toll
booth. They “take names” (actually license plate numbers) if
you speed through and don’t pay the toll. We want you to
have fun and not take home bad memories or points on your
license. Courtesy usually prevails, but just in case, give the
guy that’s in such a hurry all the room he needs. You’ll arrive
about the same time he does, but without the stress (or a
ticket) And you’ll have that money in your pocket to spend
on food and fun.)
GO FOR IT!
IT DOESN’T COST THAT MUCH
TO ENJOY THE VERY BEST
ART & MUSIC EXHIBIT March 9, you are invited to
the opening reception at the Art League Gallery in
Pineland Station showcasing 38 illustrations by SCAD
(Savannah School of Art & Design) students, showing
the relationship between the visual arts and music.
(The show hangs thru April 10) (actually this is free, but I
hated to separate the two events.) The 15th Hilton Head
International Piano Competition will be held March 8-15;
so the collaboration represents a unique and exciting way
to experience the relationship between the two art forms.
(There is a nominal charge, but my goodness, where in the
world will you ever hear such outstanding music and musi-
cians.)
2010 HILTON HEAD INTERNATIONAL PIANO

to serve you in the most timely way. Tipping is most
appreciated. The standard on the Island is 20%. (18% is
just too hard to figure; and besides that little extra you
leave will make you feel better about yourself, and might
make the difference in what the server can do for their
children when they get home). We’re so glad you came;
please come back and visit us again and again. And stay
in touch with the island thru the internet and our
website after you return home. Have a happy vacation.

 History of the Island
ilton Head Island is a product of many cultures,
H backgrounds and personalities. Influences from the
American Indian, African American, Spanish, French and
British peoples are reflected in the names of places, plantations,
and other parts of Hilton Head Island. We’ve highlighted a few
and you’ll discover more via the tours available.
The Indian Shell Ring in the Sea Pines
Forest Preserve dates back to 1450 B.C. Listed
on the National Register of Historic Places,
this mound of oyster shells, animal bones &
clay provides a visible monument to the
prolific oyster beds and to the Indians who
made them one of their staples.
In 1521, the Spanish left their mark on the
Island. Cordillo Parkway now bears the name
of the Spaniard who discovered the harbor to
Port Royal about the same time St. Augustine,
Florida was founded. In 1562, Admiral Coligny
sent Jean Ribaut to lead French Huguenots in a
search of religious freedom and although
France and Spain fought over the harbor for
many years, Spain was eventually given the
land in a treaty by the Roman Catholic Pope.
By 1663, England, made her bid for a
place in the new world. Sir William Hilton,
aboard the good ship “Adventure,” sighted tall pines as he
searched for the entrance to Port Royal. Marking the spot on
his map, sailors referred to this point as “Hilton Head.” Hilton’s
glowing report of the fertile soil and ideal growing conditions
on the island promoted British colonization.
1698 saw the establishment of large plantations as a result of
barony land grants. In 1717, the agent for those original
developers sold the land along Skull Creek. The real estate agent
called the Island “Trench’s Island.” Settlers established large
plantations. Indigo was the major crop on from the 1740’s until
the Revolutionary War.
Across the “toe” was “Dawfoskee”. Is has been accepted by
most historians that Daufuskie (present spelling) got its name
from the Yemassee Indian word that means “land with a point”,
(referring to its shape which resembles a pointed feather). The
pictured “D’Awfoskee“ chart was published in 1776. The
American Revolution fostered a need by the British military for
charts and maps of America. Daufuskie Islanders (Tories),
supported Britain in the Revolution, while Hilton Head
Islanders supported the Colonists.
The Civil War was one of the busiest times on the island.
Nearly 30,000 Union troops were stationed on Hilton Head
after the “Battle of Port Royal Sound” on Nov 7, 1861. Fort
Mitchel, built in 1862, and named for Gen. Ormsby Mitchel,
who commanded the Union soldiers on Hilton Head in 1862,
was part of the defense for the northern end of the Island
during the Union occupation. (Remains of this Fort as well as
other historical treasures have been preserved as vital treasures
of our past. A 1861 map shows the original plantations and
landmarks. The Gullah community who were part of the
plantation system and so important to the agriculture on the
island were freed as a result of the war, and they used money
they had hidden and saved from their earnings as laborers to
buy land and begin a life on their own land. We have much to
thank this community for today; for they continue to share with
us their rich heritage. (Be sure to take a tour and hear the many
stories of heart break and heroism of these families so
important in the history of Hilton Head Island. (Gullah Heritage
Tours: 843-681-7066)
(I was recently called to account for not mentioning the
importance of the Gullah heritage in this article. And for that I do
apologize. Designed to give you a ‘taste’ of our history, you will
have to ‘read between the lines’ for a more in depth account if you
stop your exploration here. Hopefully you will discover more on
your own through the books that have been written so well and
documented with pictures on the history of our island.)
Developers have kept the Island history in mind as they
have planned present Island developments.) (Leamington was
May also be seen on WhereToGo.sc
called Leamington even in 1861.) Call the Coastal Discovery
Museum at Honey Horn: 843-689-3033 ext 221 and make
reservations to take one of their many special tours.
“Modern” Hilton Head began in the 50s and the Island has
seen phenomenal growth thanks to wise and carefully planned
development. But before Charles Fraser could begin his mark
on the Island, a man named Alfred L. Loomis,
and his brother in law Landon Thorne, bought
17,000 of the 25,000 acre island for quail
hunting. Had he not purchased all the parcels
included in that tract of land, Charles Fraser
would not have been able to build his dream
because that land was owned by freed ‘slaves’
after the Civil War.
The term “plantation” had not been used
since the turn of the century until the
development of Sea Pines Plantation. Charles
Fraser conceived and pioneered the concepts
of respect for the environment. His philosophy
was to offer amenities first (golf courses,
marinas, bike paths, etc.) and development
would follow. The result of that philosophy
you see today. (Mr. Fraser died in an untimely
accident in Dec, 2002. He is buried under the
Liberty Oak in Harbour Town. A fitting tribute
to a man who meant so much to the recognition
and growth of this island.) Hilton Head recognizes over 35,000
permanent residents and hosts more than two million
visitors each year. The Island has become a year round resort
destination.
There are two lighthouses on Hilton Head. Most famous is
the 90 ft. tall Harbour Town lighthouse in Sea Pines. Climb to
the top. Take your camera. (You’ll also find a great shop with the
best selection of lighthouse memorabilia anywhere.) The other
one is on the Arthur Hills Golf Course in Palmetto Dunes Resort.
Turtle Lane is so named for the Loggerhead turtles who come
to bury their eggs then return to the sea ( white markers along
the beach designate a protected area where Loggerheads make
their way to their nesting area). And in years past, we even had a
Leatherback Turtle make her way to our shores.
More than 250 species of birds are seen on Hilton Head
during the year. “The Birders Guide to Hilton Head Island And
The Lowcountry,” published by Hilton Head Audubon Society,
is considered to be the ‘birders’ bible.
The SC State Tree is the Sabal or Cabbage Palmetto. Hardiest
palm along the coastal plain, the trunk is covered with overlays of
thick husks. Palmetto means “small palm” in Spanish. This tree
was a symbol of the Revolution because of its ability to repel
bullets during combat. The Palmetto is pictured on our state flag
& state seal.
The State Shell is the Lettered Olive. Our State Bird, the
Carolina Wren, is pictured on some SC license plates. Yellow
Jasmine: the State Flower. The State Dance : “The Shag”. The
Peach, the state fruit, and the State Beverage is (nope, not gin &
tonic), but milk). (The state social drink is iced tea.) The state
fish is the Bass. The State Animal: the Whitetail Deer (Bambi &
friends), not the alligator. And also listed in the SC Legislative
handbook is the State Spider: the Wolf Spider.
Shaped like a shoe (toe, instep, heel & ankle), Hilton Head
is about 12 miles long, up to 4 miles wide and encompasses
about 42 square miles. The beach extends almost the entire
length of the Island. Trees grow right up to the beachline.
Beautiful palms and palmettos, magnolias, tall pines and ancient
oak trees are abundant. This natural protection as well as God’s
smile have preserved our Island from heavy storm damage.
Hilton Head is a very special Island that more than 35,000 call
home. Not without our growing pains (or maybe we can call
them “growing gains”), we’re concerned with our environment
and Island growth with its accompanying problems. We continue
to define and implement ways to make our Island an even more
wonderful place to live or visit.. Come again and be a part of the
new history you are helping develop on Hilton Head Island.

ALCOHOL, SPEED LIMITS AND THE LAW
A word of concern from WHERE TO GO. We care about
you and your safety. There is nothing pleasant about spending
your vacation in the Beaufort County Jail. They are nice folks
over there, but there is no “Happy Hour” (and they do not
accept VISA or MasterCard) In fact, we can almost guarantee
you will NOT have a good time.
DUI’s go directly to jail. They do cross the bridge, but
they do NOT collect $200. In fact, you may end up paying
that amount. And SC law prohibits open containers of
any alcoholic beverages in the passenger section of your
car. Judge Rita Simmons, is very personable, but you do
not want to see her in court.
The speed limit on the Island is 45 mph with 35 posted in
many areas. Our Law Enforcement team is very effective so do
not exceed the limit. Believe me, they do not want to “make
your day.” The speed limit coming onto the Island is 55 mph
TOPS. It’s 45 at the foot of the bridge and they mean it! Watch
it on the Cross Island Expressway, and especially on Palmetto
Bay Rd. Unmarked Thunderbirds are watching for you and
their sole reason for existence is writing tickets.
It would be smart not to mix boating & alcohol.
The Beaufort County Marine Patrol may be watching
you. Be smart & safe. And watch those no wake zones.
BAR AND LIQUOR LAWS
Package stores are identified by the red dot. They close at
7:00 p.m. Mon-Sat. Closed on Sunday. You may buy an alco-
holic beverage Sundays in most restaurants serving food.
Beer & wine are available Sundays at the grocery
stores. An ordinance prohibits alcohol on the beach!

for 3 or 6 hours (beach comb, look for arrowheads, search for
old relics, shark’s teeth, etc. on one of the most beautiful
beaches on the eastern seaboard.)
• Visit the Freeport General Store & The Old Daufuskie Crab
Company right where the boat docks at the boat landing at
Freeport Marina. Indoor and outdoor dining. Gullah lunch

If the ride over to Daufuskie weren't enjoyable enough, passing
beautiful homes, seeing smaller islands, watching the dolphins
swimming along side the boat; then the experiences on Daufuskie
Island will definitely make you glad you chose to make a trip to
one of the most scenic and historical islands on the East Coast.
There are buses to take you in comfort
around the island, and golf carts to allow
you to experience the island on your own.
Maybe just enjoying the quiet breezes
as you lounge outside at one of the picnic
tables overlooking Calibogue Sound will
be one of your lasting memories. In any
case, there's plenty to do on this special
island Pat Conroy wrote about in "The
Water is Wide" so many years ago.
And there's the special history tour
with Roger Pinckney, author of "Seventh Son on Sacred Ground"
and "The Right Side of the River."
The Sapelo Queen is a classic passenger ferry, Coast Guard
approved for 149 passengers. Before coming to Hilton Head, it
was the boat used to ferry passengers from the mainland to Sapelo
Island, GA. You've come this far to enjoy the ocean and its sur-
roundings, complete your visit with a trip to Daufuskie Island.
Daufuskie Island is a beautiful location for a wedding, reunion,
graduation party, family gathering or any fun occasion. Special
discounted rates are available for groups. Consider spending the
night in one of the comfortable air-conditioned Daufuskie Crab
Cottages. "Rustic elegance" away from it all and an experience
you'll love sharing with your friends when you get back home.
