spring FASHION SHOOT
Spring is in the air and we couldn’t think of a better place to shoot our fashion feature than at the South Carolina Yacht Club. The combination of beautiful outfits, gorgeous jewelry, amazing models (some of whom are SCYC members) and a fabulous location made for a great day. Thanks to everyone who took time out of their day to make this one of our favorite shoots this year! – Sasha Sweeney, Senior Creative Director.

BOYS & GIRLS CLUB OF THE LOWCOUNTRY NAMES YOUTH OF THE YEAR
Sebastian Vela Garcia of the Boys & Girls Club of Hilton Head Island was named 2021 Lowcountry Youth of the Year. He is a junior at Hilton Head High School.
As the Lowcountry Youth of the Year, Sebastian will receive a college scholarship worth $500 and will compete in Boys & Girls Clubs of America’s State Youth of the Year competition on April 22, a news release said. “Sebastian has grown so much over his years at the Club — maturing from a shy and reserved kid to one of the most outgoing and social teens in the Club’s Keystone Service Club,” said Kim Likins, Club director.
Last year, Sebastian and a few other members of the Keystone Club took on a new business project. The teens hatched the idea of running a snack shack during Club hours. Sebastian and his fellow Keystone Club members worked through all the details, named the business Snackity Shack, and one season into the business, the group earned enough money to plan a trip to New York City.
Sebastian excels in school with straight A’s and received an invitation last year to Hilton Head High School’s Beta Club. He also works during the summer as part of the Club’s Jr. Staff. “Sebastian embodies the Club values of leadership, service and academic excellence and serves as an excellent role model for other young people in the Club,” said Chris Protz, Chief Executive Officer, Boys & Girls Clubs of the Lowcountry.
