The Smiths Talk about Living in Paradise


Nelle Smith, a Clover Club member, former BDC volunteer, and co-star of the Filmtastic Fridays video series on Lulu Burgess Beaufort’s Facebook page  https://www.facebook.com/luluburgess/  and her daughter Ora will be doing two Author Book Talks about Paradise Memories of Hilton Head in the Early Days.

In 1963, John Smith was hired as the public relations man for Charles Fraser's Sea Pines Plantation Company and moved his family to the Carolina lowcountry. The women will share what it was like to live on Hilton Head as development forever changed a quiet coastal island with only a couple of thousand inhabitant into the premier resort destination it is today. 

David Lauderdale’s column on April 5th was about the book : http://www.islandpacket.com/opinion/opn-columns-blogs/david-lauderdale/article207505654.html. We’ll host a program at Hilton Head Branch on May 31st at 11 am and at Beaufort Branch about a month later. I am sure that both outings will be a hoot for any who comes to the programs.  Be sure to mark your calendars to join as at one (or both) programs!
