Boat Day Thank You! From the looks of pictures, boat day was a smashing success once again this year. A special thanks to Brad Nyers for organizing our boats and captains, and to David Hand and Jimmy Hinson for volunteering their boats and time. What a great way to spend a Sunday afternoon!

Handing over the reins! Today (8/8) is my last
day before my maternity leave begins, which means the reins are officially
being handed over to Kim Dowd until my return in late September. Many of you have had a chance to meet Kim and
welcome her. I'm excited for you all to
get to know her better and to experience lots of fun and learning over the next
weeks. You are in great hands! If you need anything in my absence, or have
any questions about activities, please contact Kim at kimdowd26@gmail.com or
843-610-9898. Thank you all for your
prayers for Jeremy, the baby, and me. We
will be sure to share any news of Baby Connell's arrival as soon as there's
news to share. (Hopefully very, very soon.)
