Thank you for a sometimes thankless job
For over 30 years the dedicated residents of Dataw Island have been picking up trash on a 6-mile stretch of St. Helena Island.
Each year these teams remove about 500 bags of trash from along the road side plus lots of larger debris. There are currently about four dozen volunteers cleaning up Sea Island Parkway for residents and thousands of yearly visitors to enjoy their trip to town or the beaches.
There is really no way to properly thank these volunteers for battling increased beach traffic, humidity, bugs, weeds and mowers. One can only imagine what the roadway would look like without their dedicated effort.
Thank you Dataw Island for caring.

Winning the battle, losing the war
Our home is located in Dulamo subdivision, which borders Pine Island/St. Helenaville. We have lived here for 33 years. As past president of our HOA for nearly 20 years, Dulamo and Pine Island have had a great relationship. We’d like to see that relationship continue.
Dulamo residents will be the ones who are impacted the most with the proposed development.
One fact is crystal clear, that the Coastal Conservation League and uninformed Beaufort County citizens may not realize that the owner and developer WILL build. To that end, it seems logical that we’d prefer 65 homes and a golf course built rather than 166 homes built.
The Coastal Conservation League and vocal opponents to the development would have won the battle but lost the war.
