PUBLIC AFFAIRS UPDATES
Beginning March 1, @IflyCHS social media will begin their #SimplyCHS campaign. We will be highlighting businesses, vendors, artists, and all things that remind us of life in the Lowcountry. With March as our spring launch we look forward to showing you what CHS has to offer already, and cannot wait to partner with local businesses in the future. On February 17th Public Affairs hosted National Random Acts of Kindness Day at the Airport. We shared over 3,000 cookies, luggage tags and hand sanitizers with passengers and employees. Always remember to be kind.
