It’s hard to believe that as I write this in early March, it’s been an entire year since all of our worlds were turned upside down and forever changed. I sincerely wish everyone reading this the best as we all continue to navigate these times. I am very thankful for the businesses in our community that have continued to support us over the past year. We simply could not bring you this magazine without the advertisers on these pages, and I encourage you to visit and support them. Please also support as many other local businesses as you can, and look for places to help with your attention, time and money. We are all in this together, and we must be there for one another. We have some great stories for you in this issue of South Brunswick Magazine. We have a fascinating look at the jobs at the Oak Island Coast Guard Station and delve into the pastime of disc golf in South Brunswick County. We introduce you to people who are making their dreams come true, like young surfer Bella Faircloth and the Wicked Tuna fishing team of Holden Beach’s Rasta Rocket, as well as several local entrepreneurs. Writer Ed Beckley gives us a fictional account of a historic event, the day in 1791 when President George Washington visited what is now Ocean Isle Beach. As always, we have delicious recipes for food and drink from our food editor, Sandi Grigg.
