FROM THE
letterEDITOR I can still close my eyes and vividly remember how, as a little girl, my stomach would flutter with pure excitement as the two tall columns would come into view as we turned left off the main highway. Just beyond the grand entry was our ticket to Summer. Welcome to Jekyll Island. It always felt like time stood still and the world was there just for us. Would we see sharks? Would we find the perfect seashell? It seemed the days stretched on just for our pleasure as we soaked in all the sand and sun. We spent the time building sandcastles on end, only to have them washed away and start again fresh the next day. I can still hear the gentle waves that reached their way to the strong rocks, which were the only barrier between land and sea. It was always mesmerizing to me as a child…how it simply stopped with a jolt and receded back to the sky. The beaches held such magic for us through the years as we
“Sometimes you will never know the value of a moment until it becomes a memory.” DR. SEUSS
grew into adults and began our own families. Perhaps there was no greater joy than when I watched our one-year-old son run without inhibition straight into the salty beach waves squealing with baby joy. Nine years later, he can’t wait to get across that beautiful bridge, pointing out anything that catches his eye along the way. The Golden Isles area has grown and morphed so much through the years into so many shapes and sizes, but one thing that remains is that the simple elegant charm has never lost its luster. Locals know the treasure they have for what they call home, while visitors who are experiencing it all for a season, feel the wonder at their fingertips. Tocal aims to merge the old-world charm of this area with the modern times. We will integrate tourist and local reader involvement to explore your own backyard by utilizing technology that shares your experiences with the world.

MEET OUR
Our family has been in publishing for over 30 years and consider it such a joy to do what we love. People are our passion and the relationships we have built through this venue give us such gratitude for all the good we see in the world. We are honored to serve so many amazing areas in our beloved state of Georgia and are proud to produce publications that feature such amazing entrepreneurs and fascinating clientele.
We are so grateful to be a part of this community. The Golden Isles holds
a special place in our family’s heart as we are 4th generation vacationers. While Patti’s parents owned rental homes on Jekyll, she grew up with an insatiable love for the area as she life guarded her way through early adulthood here in the local waters. This passion was passed on to her children and extended to the grandchildren that can’t wait for each Summer to spend together soaking up the rich air, sun and sand of the beaches. Our roots are as deep and strong as the gorgeous landscape trees that surround these islands. The Tocal team is a beautiful tapestry of experience, creativity and passion and we are honored to share this vision.

The rocket fuel was provided by seeing many people coming in local stores and asking for information, referrals, and suggestions about the area. Mandi unofficially became the face of the magazine, and being successful in sales, this was a natural. For those who have not met Mandi, being on the other end of her friendship is like lemonade in the middle of the desert. Besides being movie star pretty, she has personality plus, in the manner of a Southern Belle. Interacting with her, you would swear you were talking to Scarlett O'Hara, without the personality disorder and plantation baggage. The only thing missing in her house are the green velvet drapes.
