PUBLISHER’S NOTE They say you can’t teach an old dog new tricks. It’s something I’ve been thinking about a lot lately as I hit a recent milestone in my age.

And I don’t know if it’s just because I’m a guy who tends to get pretty set in his ways, but it seems to me that there’s more to that saying than people think.

Am I an old dog? I’d like to think I still have a few tricks left in me. But for a lot of us who have enjoyed our share of trips around the sun, it’s not that we can’t learn new tricks. It’s that there seems to be more of them to learn than ever. Things change quickly these days, and often. Keeping up can be a challenge.

That’s why I’m so proud to see the way our locally owned restaurants adapt to change, and in some cases lead the charge in creating that change. Whether it’s the hotspots that are facing their first shoulder season or the perennial standbys who have defined our culinary scene for decades, our restaurants are relentless in constantly stepping up their game. And they have to – today’s diner is always on the lookout for the next option, whether it’s farm-to-table, dockto-table, gluten-free or vegan.

Our food and beverage professionals have kept pace with all those changes, never missing a beat. They’ve led the pace, and given our island an embarrassment of riches when it comes to dining options. And we, the customers, have reaped the benefits. Even us old dogs who have learned a few new culinary tricks along the way.

The winter months are the perfect time to get out and check out our local restaurants’ creativity, particularly with restaurant week giving you great deals to guide you out of your comfort zone. Yeah, they say that you can’t teach an old dog new tricks. But they also say that age is just a number. Whether this is your first visit to the island, or you’ve been dining out on the island for years, make this winter your season to get out there and learn a few new tricks of your own.

A Legacy in Every Bite

Crane’s Tavern has long been the old-school favorite of steak lovers, and the story of the family behind it might just be the best seasoning of all.

BY BARRY KAUFMAN

•

PHOTOS BY ROB KAUFMAN

If there’s any indication of what Frank Crane saw when his 13-year-old eyes beheld America for the first time, it’s been lost to history.

Traveling on his own from his native Ireland, he was one drop in a flood of Emerald Isle immigrants taking their chances on the new world. We don’t know much about his arrival, but we do know this – in his young heart beat a passion that would become a legacy, stretching from that turn-of-the-century port to the suburbs of Philadelphia, the shores of Long Beach Island, New Jersey, and finally South to Hilton Head Island nearly 25 years ago.

Just five years after landing on our shores, the 18-year-old Crane had opened the restaurant that would bear his name (albeit, as Crane’s Old English Tavern, owing to the prevailing bigotry against the Irish at the time).

Located in the heart of Philadelphia, this tavern quickly became not just a vital meeting spot for the City of Brotherly Love, it launched a family legacy now four generations strong.

Frank would keep the original Crane’s Tavern running through prohibition (at least in spirit.

Like so many tavern keepers of the time who saw their livelihood criminalized overnight, he spent our long national nightmare as a bootlegger). After that, his sons would open Crane’s Tavern in Germantown, which is where Hank Crane, the third generation of American Cranes, enters the picture.

“Believe it or not, his first bartending job was not for my grandfather,” said Beth Crane, 14

TASTEOFHILTONHEAD.COM

Hank’s daughter and co-founder of the Hilton Head Crane’s Tavern. “He was told he had to get some experience before he would be recommended to come in, so he spent all of his summers bartending at this place on Long Beach Island.”

That place would be the Surf City Hotel.

After finally earning the right to work at the family’s Germantown establishment, Hank realized his own role in building the family legacy. Like his grandfather before him, he yearned to write his own. So following a successful opening of his own establishment in Ambler, PA, he bought the hotel where he once worked and put the Crane name right out front.

“That’s where I learned. That’s where I cut my teeth in the business,” added Beth. Hank and his daughter Beth, as the third and fourth chapters in a family saga written in the restaurant business, would work hand-in-hand in moving that legacy forward for more than 20 years before Hank’s retirement.

Well, maybe retirement is a strong word.

“He just couldn’t,” said Beth with a laugh. “It lasted about six months.”

That pause gave Hank just enough time, however, to find a way to transplant the Crane history to Hilton Head Island.

Like his father and grandfather before him, he envisioned a place where people would be proud to call themselves regulars, and where friendships are forged over great food in an inviting atmosphere.

Crane’s Tavern opened in 1999, designed from day one to evoke that timeless aesthetic upon which Frank Crane built his legacy. The rich dark oak of the bar, ringed by antique fixtures, creates a sense of walking back in time, to an era when hospitality was the standard. Up front, an illustration by famed cartoonist John Liney speaks to the quality that has long defined the Crane family’s restaurants. Woodcuts evoke the bygone era in which Frank Crane got his start.

And of course, the pictures around the bar tell the story of a family immersed four generations deep in the business. While each chapter carries its own charms, it really only serves as a preamble to the latest chapter, one built by Hank and Beth on an island far from Philadelphia.

“Most of it hasn’t changed, (since we

opened) because this place has always been about the quality, the consistency and the people,” said Beth. “We have a couple of things on the menu that have been here since we started. The tavern roll, in particular, which we call the glorified Philadelphia cheesesteak. We have some things that are not going to leave the menu.”

Quality. Consistency. People. The quality comes from steak and seafood items meticulously sourced to deliver the best possible meal, prepared in a way that coaxes out each indescribably delicious note of flavor. The consistency comes from the fact that, since Crane’s opened, there have only been two chefs – Tom Egerton, who left briefly to open Annie O’s before returning, and Sean Cavanaugh. In fact, there are a handful of employees, who have been there since say one, including the most requested server on the island, Dianne Flowers. Like Beth said, it’s about people.

“The good thing about this business is that you can enjoy what you do, because you can enjoy your people.

Your customers who become friends, your staff.” said Beth. She points out that this love of people is something her dad personified – when Hank passed away last year, hundreds attended his funeral. “And hopefully he’s passed that on to me. I’ve been able to cultivate the same thing here because we’re family.”

They’re not the only family at Crane’s Tavern. With Beth now standing as the fourth generation to carry the standard,

you start to see what Frank Crane might have seen that day when he arrived in America. He saw an opportunity, to establish a family legacy of bringing people together around a few drinks, an amazing meal and a restaurant that just feels like home.

More Than Just a

SANDWICH

When you start with the right bun, the sky’s the limit.

At Philly’s Café and Deli, lunch is what you make of it.

BY BARRY KAUFMAN

•

There’s something to be said for the simple comforts of a well-crafted sandwich. On an island as renowned for its food scene as Hilton Head, where high-end restaurants compete for your dining dollar with gourmet fare that rivals any big city in the world, it’s nice to have just one spot where you park your frills at the door. And on this island, that place is Philly’s Café and Deli.

To simply walk inside, smell the dueling aromas of fresh baked bread and sizzling cheesesteak, the delicate undercurrent of mushrooms, onions and peppers sautéing in the breeze, is to revel in the anticipation of a lunch for the record books.

But then comes the first stumbling block, even for the many die-hard regulars who have made Philly’s their go-to lunch spot.

Which sandwich to pick?

“I get people asking me every day what’s the most popular sandwich, and I tell them, ‘It’s about a 20-way tie,’” said owner Mike Kadar with a laugh. “Honestly, I pull up the analytics and they’re all neck and neck.”

18

TASTEOFHILTONHEAD.COM

PHOTOS BY ROB KAUFMAN

No surprise there, given that even the most rut-bound regular has ventured outside their comfort zone to sample some of the other gems scattered around the menu. Maybe you’re the big or go home type, opting for the South Street cheesteak (onions, peppers, mushrooms and provolone) and then one day a Pittsburgh win puts you in the mood for a Steel City, their take on the classic Primanti Bros. If so, go for it.

You’ll be far from the most unusual order placed at Philly’s famed sandwich counter.

“I had one person ask for a chicken BLT salad on a pita… we couldn’t even fold it. I wanted to give him a shovel,” said Kadar.

“Another person got the Godfather (turkey, salami, provolone, oil & vinegar) and added a meatball right on top of the sandwich.

Everyone was like, ‘what the heck?’ but the guy loved it.”

And with the option to build your own out of ingredients that are held to the highest standards in quality, the only limit is your imagination. And, we suppose, your stomach. But that’s why

leftovers exist. Although one of the beautiful things about Philly’s is that, at this price point, you can’t feel too bad if you wind up taking down the whole sandwich in one go.

“We’ve tried to maintain that standpoint of offering a drink, chips and a sandwich for around $12, just trying to keep it basic,” said Kadar.

“Especially given today’s economy, that’s important. This past year, I finally got a sandwich that went over the $9.95 mark.”

That would be the roast beef and bacon, and we defy anyone to try it and say that it isn’t worth every penny. These days, with food costs skyrocketing, it’s almost an act of defiance to keep prices down, but Kadar manages thanks to a deceptively ingenious method behind his madness. “I get people asking me why I don’t thin down the menu, but honestly it makes it simpler,” said Kadar. “There are only about two things I could take off the menu without affecting the other sandwiches. Everything is crossutilized.”

Playing smart with the ingredients also means putting in the extra effort to bake fresh rolls every day.

No matter what, you’ll find Kadar in there early in the morning getting everything prepped and filling the restaurant with the scent of freshbaked bread. That extra effort not only helps keep food costs down, it also helps Kadar maintain the quality that Philly’s has become known for.

“If you don’t have a fresh roll, you don’t have a good sandwich,” he said. And while he’s already heard from die-hard Philadelphians about Amoroso rolls, he opts for a solution that keeps the quality high and the prices low. “I bake my own. If I order them from somewhere up north, they’re either going to drive the price up or they’ll be frozen.”

And frozen rolls have no place at Philly’s. It’s a stubborn devotion to quality that has kept Philly’s on everyone’s short list for lunch since Kadar took over 15 years ago. After spending the first two years working with previous owner Mike Weaver, Kadar took over full time in 2010, carrying on the tradition of affordable yet mind-blowing sandwiches.

“I think the secret is I actually enjoy what I do,” he said, talking while kneading out the dough for that day’s sandwiches. “And the secret is also passing that along, that atmosphere and that

interaction with the customer. And, again, providing a great sandwich at a fair price.”

Of course, Philly’s doesn’t just provide one great sandwich at a fair price. It provides a slew of them – enough that even Kadar has trouble picking a go-to regular. “I have usually have the Broad Street or the Old School once a week. Or some version of the Road Runner. Or the Woodstock, the Steel City or the Club,” he said. “But after 15 years I’ve been through all of them.”

OYSTERS 101

If this oyster season marks your first foray into the world of the Lowcountry’s most iconic morsels, read on.

BY BARRY KAUFMAN

The oyster world can be a little overwhelming to the uninitiated. You might think you can just walk into a raw bar and ask for a dozen oysters, you’ll soon find a dizzying array of varietals, moving the seasons regardless of the presence of an R in the name of the month.

In theory, an oyster should be an oyster. After all, at least on this coast, pretty much every oyster you eat will share the genes of Crassostrea virginica. But genetics can’t dictate the salt of the water, the length of the tides, the temperature of the water, or any of the thousands of variables that separate a Blue Point from a Beausoleil.

And those variables can make all the difference, creating an oyster in one river that pairs well with a complex wine, and an oyster in another that’s destined for the fryer. For those new to oysters, knowing the difference between them can mean the difference between a good meal and a great meal.

To help guide you, we’ve enlisted the expertise of a pair of true oyster experts: Sarah Jobbins, general manager at Fishcamp, and Matty Onderko, executive chef at Old Oyster Factory.

James River Oysters

Drawing their uniquely mild and buttery flavory from the briny waters of the James River estuary, as well as the oysters’ diet of algae and plankton, James River Oysters present a mildly salty, meaty flavor profile that has made them one of the most popular oysters in the Lowcountry.

“That’s kind of your beginner oyster,” said Onderko. While he pairs his with a light beer or a pinot gris, Jobbins nudges diners toward more robust wines.

“They can stand up to a pinot noir, and even a chardonnay because they’re not as salty,” she said. As an added bonus, James River oysters are available year-round thanks to a few ingenious methods perfected by Virginia’s W. E. Kellum Seafood.

Blue Points

“That’s what we call a two-bite oyster,” said Jobbins. “Blue Points can get to be as big as your hand.”

Harvested from Long Island’s Great South Bay, Blue Points have long been a standby in the oyster world. If the James River is a beginner oyster, Blue Points mark the point in a culinary journey where your palette begins to appreciate the subtle differences between oysters.

Jobbins recommends pairing with an IPA and preparing it with a simple mignonette, hot sauce or horseradish.

Beausoleil

With a name that means “beautiful sun,” you know that these oysters boast something a little special. Originating from New Brunswick, Canada, these tray-farmed oysters take full advantage of their northern exposure in creating one of the most subtle, delicate flavor profiles among oysters.

“They’re more mild as far as brininess – there’s a little bit of a melon flavor, and they finish sweet,” said Onderko. “That’s one you’re going to see in a lot of restaurants.”

As far as a pairing suggestion, Onderko points to Beausoleils as the ideal oyster for celebration. “People always talk about bubbly and oysters, and this is the perfect oyster for that,” he said.

Momma Mia

Like other oysters from Prince Edward Island, Momma Mias take full advantage of the climate and salinity in creating a mild flavor profile. Interestingly, this oyster is one of just a handful to be trademarked, with the Cape Cod Shellfish & Seafood Company claiming ownership. Farm-raised, these oysters boast their own one-of-a-kind flavor profile.

“Momma Mias are not quite as salty as some other PEI oysters, and they have a sweet finish,” said Onderko. “They go really well with a good, oaky chardonnay.”

Cedar Island Oysters

Getting a little nearer to home, these North Carolina oysters are known for their well-balanced flavor profile, offering a mild, briny taste with hints of buttery sweetness, a clean, crisp finish.

Don’t let the coloration scare you away – the unique water conditions of the Outer Banks give Cedar Island oysters a slightly brownish-green hue.

“To me, if you like Blue Points, then Cedar Island Oysters are going to be your next step up,” said Onderko.

May River Oysters

High quality food paired with handcrafted cocktails!

TASTEOFHILTONHEAD.COM

And finally we come to our own homegrown oysters, raised in the utterly unique tidal salinity of the May River. The ebb and flow of the May’s current ensures that May River Oysters get the ideal amount of submersion, while the inflow of ocean water gives them a shot of saltiness that few others can match.

“They’re a pretty high-salinity oyster,” said Jobbins. “And they pair really well with either some bubbly or a sauvignon blanc.”

And just a ten-minute boat ride from Fishcamp, a farming operation allows for year-round enjoyment of the world’s finest oysters. “I got a chance to go out with them to where they grow them on the Calibogue Sound,” said Jobbins. “You can see the whole process of them starting from seed. It takes two years to develop into an oysters, and these guys are out there every day shaking them out and checking on them.”

One bite and you’ll agree they’re worth the effort.

Be stronger Live longer

BY CHRISTY BARONI

•

PHOTO BY ROB KAUFMAN

The buzz around the fitness and wellness industry right now is “health span”. This new term describes our evolving desire to not only live a long life but to have our health grow as we age.

The idea is that aging is inevitable (a blessing even!) but getting old is optional.

So how do we stave off the aches, pains, and prescriptions that typically come along with the aging process? Two things: eat real food, and lift heavy weights.

Don’t let the word ‘heavy’ scare you away. Strength training, or resistance training, is a type of exercise that involves working against resistance to build and maintain muscle. Luckily you can achieve this using free weights, barbells, dumbbells, weight machines, resistance bands, and even your own body weight in certain movements and exercises. The combinations are endless!

What you gain from strength training includes: • Increased muscle strength and endurance: Strength training helps to make your muscles stronger and more resilient. This can make it easier to perform everyday activities, such as carrying groceries or lifting heavy objects.

• It can also improve your athletic performance in sports and other physical activities.

• Improved bone health: Strength training helps to strengthen your bones and reduce your risk of osteoporosis. This is especially important for women as they age.

• Reduced risk of injury: Strength training can help to improve your balance and coordination, which can reduce your risk of falls and other injuries. It can also help to strengthen the muscles and tendons around your joints, which can protect your joints from injury.

• Reduced risk of chronic diseases: Strength training has been shown to reduce the risk of a variety of chronic diseases, including heart disease, stroke, type 2 diabetes, and some types of cancer.

• Improved body composition: Strength training can help you to lose fat and build muscle mass. This can lead to a healthier body composition and a more toned physique.

• Improved mental health: Strength training has been shown to improve mood, reduce stress, and boost self-esteem. It can also help to improve sleep quality.

In addition to these general benefits, strength training can also have specific benefits for different populations. For

example, strength training can help older adults to maintain their independence and reduce their risk of falls. It can also help children and adolescents to develop confidence along with strong bones and muscles.

Strength training is safe for most people. However, it is important to start slowly and gradually increase the intensity and duration of your workouts over time. It is also important to learn proper form to avoid injuries.

If you are new to strength training, it is a good idea to ask for help to get started. Consider consulting a personal trainer to help you develop a strength training program that is tailored to your individual needs, goals, and current fitness level.

Here are some tips for getting started with strength training: • Choose a variety of exercises that work all of the major muscle groups in your body.

• Aim to do 2-3 sets of 10-12 repetitions of each exercise.

• Use a weight that is challenging but allows you to maintain good form.

• Increase the weight or resistance as you get stronger.

• Rest for 1-2 minutes between sets.

• Do strength training exercises 2-3 times per week.

Strength training is valuable and will pay off. It has numerous benefits for people of all ages and fitness levels. If you are not already strength training, I encourage you to give it a try. You may be surprised at how much you enjoy it and how much it improves your overall well-being and “health span”.

Splashing Back into the HILTON HEAD ISLAND SEAFOOD FESTIVAL

Get your taste buds ready for a week-long love letter to the bounty of the Lowcountry’s waters.

BY BARRY KAUFMAN

•

PHOTOS PROVIED BY HILTON HEAD SEAFOOD FESTIVAL

The season has turned, bringing with it the cooler temperatures that beg Lowcountry foodies to bring the party outside and turn their appetites to festival season. Let summer have its celebrations – the real gourmets know that sweater weather is the best accompaniment to any fine meal.

That’s doubly true when the meal in question is part of the unique culinary lexicon of the Lowcountry.

The arrival of the R months brings with it the return of oysters to steamers and firepits across the region, (even if the purists turn their nose up at any attempts to cook them). The white shrimp season is in full swing. And the notion of sitting 42

TASTEOFHILTONHEAD.COM

around waiting for a whole hog to reach the perfect slowcooked consistency becomes much easier when the heat index isn’t hotter than the smoker itself.

In short, it’s the perfect time for a food festival. But you don’t have to tell the folks at the Hilton Head Island Seafood Festival that. They’ve known it ever since the first installment of the event, which turns 17 this year. Wildly popular right off the bat, the celebration of Lowcountry food has since evolved and grown, bringing in chefs from all over while expanding the shrimp net to pull in the tastiest morsels from around the southeast.

But this year, they’re taking a step back and rediscovering just what made this festival such an icon of the island in the first place.

“This year, we’re feeling nostalgic and going back to our festival roots with thrilling events like the Shrimp Tournament, Chef Masters Competition, and the family-friendly Saturday Seafood Festival,” said festival organizer Andrew Carmines.

“Throughout the week, you’ll enjoy exclusive experiences you won’t find anywhere else - from celebrity guest chefs and oyster farm excursions to incredible beverage tastings.”

This year’s event will see an array of events added to the schedule, putting the focus back on the food while taking in wild new directions. One great example of this is February 19’s “Holy, Moles and Olea” event, which will showcase Best Chef of the Southwest 2022 James Beard Award Winner Fernando Olea. The owner of Santa Fe’s celebrated Sazón, Olea will partner with Chef Tim Nelson of Holy Tequila in a pop-up dinner that puts a new cultural spin on Lowcountry cuisine.

This and other exciting new events share a schedule with returning favorites, like the Pig Pickin’ & Oyster Roast on February 24 and the return of the Zero Forks Given dinner February 23. Naturally, all these events share a tent held up by the central pillar that is the Saturday Seafood Festival, February 23. Along with delicious cuisine from a slate of local favorites, this popular event will include an iron chef competition pitting some of the most talented chefs in the southeast against each other.

“I highly encourage everyone to step out of their comfort zone and attend an event they wouldn’t normally consider,” said Carmines. “It’s really important for people to know that our events are about more than just food; they’re about embracing culture, connecting with people, and immersing yourself in the unique surroundings and wildlife.”

As the event has grown and changed and evolved over the years, there has been one constant: the good work it allows in our community. Organized by the David M. Carmines Foundation, named for Andrew’s late brother and created to honor his memory, the Hilton Head Island Seafood Festival has raised more than $1.2 million since its inception. And those funds go all over the Lowcountry, benefitting organizations like the Coastal Discovery Museum, South Carolina Aquarium, Waddell Mariculture Center, Island Recreation Scholarship Fund, Port Royal Sound Foundation, Gullah Heritage Museum, and Medical University of South Carolina.

If you needed another excuse to get out there and enjoy the flavors of the Lowcountry (without the summer humidity of the Lowcountry), there you have it. It’s not just about enjoying incredible food. It’s about making our community a better place.

THE DEEP WELL PROJECT: Reaching Deep for Neighbors in Need

BY ALLYSON JONES

Since 1973, the Deep Well Project has been “reaching deep for neighbors in need.”

Charlotte Heinrichs, a public health nurse from New York who arrived on Hilton Head Island in the late ‘60s, was a tiny woman with a big heart who made a huge difference in the lives of her Lowcountry neighbors.

Realizing local school children were suffering from parasites due to contaminated water, Heinrichs developed a program to bring deepwater wells to Native Islanders, in addition to fighting malnutrition and hunger, picking up prescriptions, driving people to doctor appointments or providing whatever help was needed.

Fifty years later, the nonprofit continues to provide its clients with “a hand-up, not a handout” and meets basic emergency needs such as food and shelter.

From one-time rent, mortgage and utility assistance to repairing owner-occupied homes to make them safe and livable and offering an on-site food pantry, as well as furniture and appliances to providing vouchers for clothing at local thrift shops or school uniforms and supplies, referrals for medical and dental needs, and offering a place to shower and wash clothes for those without a home, Deep Well has never lost sight of its original mission and helped over 6,000 people last year.

A grassroots “Angel Charity,” 93.5% of every donation is spent on direct client services and programs. This predominately volunteer-based non-profit with a $2 million budget only employs eight staff members, three of which are full-time.

“For the first 50 years, Deep Well has been focused on meeting basic needs on an emergency basis,” explains Volunteer Coordinator Lori Alexander, noting that new programs are being added to help clients be more self-sufficient.

After vacationing on Hilton Head Island for five decades, Alexander and her husband moved here in 2020 from Charlotte, 48

TASTEOFHILTONHEAD.COM

NC. With a background in higher education administration specializing in workforce and economic development initiatives and partnerships, she was recruited in March of 2022 to serve as the organization’s first dedicated Volunteer Coordinator.

Overseeing recruitment, scheduling, communication, onboarding and training of Deep Well’s 120 regular volunteers, Alexander also help launch the Circles initiative, a national effort to support families trying to move themselves out of poverty and into economic stability, while working to identify and tackle challenges that keep people in crisis.

“How the Circles program differs is that this is our new poverty reduction program,” she explains.

“There is no quick fix to poverty. This is a much more strategic, community-wide approach to helping our clients become much more self-sufficient, more financially stable.”

Alexander recruited another 140 volunteers for this 18-month program which has met every Wednesday night since January at the Children’s Center.

Each Circles meeting starts with a hot, nutritious meal donated by a local restaurant for up to 80 people, including the 15 participating “Leaders” from the community, so named as they are leading themselves out of poverty, two or three “Allies” who help Leaders reach their personal and financial goals, the Leaders’ children who attend their own volunteer-led educational program after the meal, as well as Deep Well’s 15-member Meals & Hospitality team who set up and tear down the event space and bring salad, fresh fruit and dessert.

“We just want these people to be successful,” notes Alexander. “The model is working. We have seven people taking classes at Technical College of the Lowcountry now – all of which are meeting the minimum GPA requirements. We’ve had Leaders get promotions and change jobs, improve their living

conditions and get customer service awards. The program is off to a wonderful start!”

Deep Well’s Food Pantry on Capital Drive is open Monday through Friday at select times and pre-registered clients are welcome to shop the aisles and pick out enough food for their family for a week. Grocery bags, including paper products and personal care items, are also available for pickup or delivery with the client database tracking the ages of family members, allergies and medical conditions.

In November and December, Deep Well also coordinates 250 Thanksgiving meals and another 250 Holiday meals to local families at Christmastime. Delivered the Sunday before each holiday, these grocery bags not only include a turkey or ham and ingredients for all the traditional side dishes, but enough food for the entire day, from breakfast through coffee, tea and dessert.

Another holiday tradition is Deep Well’s Santa Shop when the furniture closet is transformed into the North Pole and parents make an appointment to pick out gifts for their children. In addition to toys, books, puzzles, games, sporting goods, stuffed animals, clothing and a stocking full of goodies, each of last year’s 800 children also received a brand-new bicycle, scooter or skateboard.

“All of the toys and clothing items are new,” notes Alexander.

“It’s amazing. It literally gives me chills talking about it. We’re helping parents be Santa Claus.”

Thirty toy and food drives take place throughout the fall and winter in preparation for Deep Well’s holiday meals and Santa Shop with one realtor last year donating 143 bicycles and the

teenage son of a charter boat captain donating 35 child-sized fishing poles and tackle boxes after he worked to raise the funds to buy them.

“This Island, the Lowcountry, is just incredibly generous with their money and their time,” she adds. “It’s just amazing. We do very little fundraising. We apply for grants and we receive donations. People know we are good stewards of the money.”

The Deep Well Project is located at 80 Capital Drive.

For details on services offered by the organization, the Food Pantry, volunteering or hosting a food or toy drive, call (843) 785-2849 or visit deepwellproject.org. For more information on the Circles Hilton Head program, email Lori Alexander at volunteer@deepwellproject.org.

Oyster season runs from September through mid-May and oyster roasts are a Lowcountry winter tradition. On Saturday, February 3, The Rotary Club of Bluffton hosts its annual all-youcan-eat Oyster Roast at Oyster Factory Park overlooking the May River and the Bluffton Oyster Company.

Savor fresh, roasted local oysters, homemade chili and other cold-weather favorites accompanied by live music and your favorite beverage. For event details and ticket information, visit blufftonrotary.org or check out the Rotary Club of Bluffton SC Facebook page.

The Outside Foundation The mission of The Outside Foundation is to get kids outside and protect and preserve our local environment.

These goals are accomplished in various ways, including their signature Kids in Kayaks program designed to get every 7th grade student in Beaufort County out on the water as part of a science-based school field trip, the successful Oyster Recycling and Reef Building Initiative, litter sweeps and waterway cleanups throughout the year, festivals and special fundraising events including the annual Page Island Oyster Roast taking place on March 3.

According to Executive Director Jean Fruh, 30 tons of shucked oyster shells courtesy of two-dozen area restaurants, festivals and individuals will be recycled this year as part of a community initiative to rebuild local oyster reefs and replenish the oyster supply. These oyster shells are dropped off at the recycling station at the Coastal Discovery Museum where they are sanitized by the elements for three to six months before being bagged up and used to build new reefs.

During the winter, oyster bagging events usually take place twice a month with individuals and groups volunteering to help with the labor-intensive process. Over the summer, the South Carolina Department of Natural Resources picks up the bagged shells where they are placed in local waterways to create new reefs in places like Harbour Town and Palmetto Bluff.

Visit outsidefoundation.org or follow the organization on Facebook for information on upcoming oyster shell bagging events and tickets to the Page Island Oyster Roast.

Coligny Plaza Souper Bowl of Caring On February 10, Coligny Plaza once again hosts the Souper Bowl of Caring to benefit Second Helpings.

Last year, this all-you-can-taste event featuring soup served up by local restaurants raised more than $4,600 for Second Helpings, a non-profit that rescues food from grocery stores and other outlets and delivers it to local food pantries in Beaufort and Jasper Counties.

In 2023, Stu’s Surfside Subs, The Sandbar Beach Eats, The Frosty Frog Cafe, the Big Bamboo Cafe, POPS, Sweet Al’s, Carolina Coffee & Crumbs, Skillets Cafe and Grill, Forrest Fire BBQ, Beach House, Fish Casual Coastal Seafood, Gringo’s Diner and the Piggly Wiggly grocery store warmed up a winter afternoon with specialty soups accompanied by the sounds of the Chilly Willy Band and MC Monty Jett.
