Sharing Our Love For Hilton Head Island

Continue Reading

Love. Writers, poets, philosophers, religious leaders, and even scientists have sought to define and explain it. Some would call it “a many splendored thing,” others doubt it from time to time, and many would say you just know it when you feel it.

This month, you have a chance to show our community some love through event attendance and a fun social media challenge. Here’s a quick summary:

• Hilton Head Island Gullah Celebration: A month-long series of events designed to share the rich heritage and history of the Gullah people on Hilton Head Island. To learn more about this chance to immerse yourself in our local Gullah culture, check out gullahcelebration.org.

• On Saturdays throughout the month (and the rest of the year), head over to Shelter Cove Community Park for the Hilton Head Community Market to support local artists, makers, and other small businesses. Visit hhicommunitymarket.com to learn more. 

• Don’t forget about the week-long series of events culminating in the Hilton Head Island Seafood Festival at Honey Horn on February 21 from 5:30 to 8:30 p.m. and February 22 from 1 to 5 p.m. To learn more about this almost-20-year island tradition, visit hiltonheadseafoodfestival.com for a full schedule.

• On Facebook, Instagram, and X (formally known as Twitter), throughout this month, the Town of Hilton Head Island is asking those who love our island oasis to define that love through a fun social media campaign called “MyHHILove.”

It’s simple: Take a photo, share a video, write a post, pick a favorite quote, or find another creative way to share your love for Hilton Head Island. Then post it on social media as #MyHHILove, and challenge three friends, family members, neighbors, or coworkers to do the same.

Our Town communications team will keep track of the challenge through the hashtag and will select winning contributions to the campaign that demonstrate one or more of these community core values: environmental sustainability, parks and recreation, inclusive community, right-sized infrastructure, and modernized economy. We will celebrate the winners via follow-up posts in early March. 

How will you define your love for our community? Ready, set, share the love!
