    OUR NEWEST SOURCE OF HAPPINESS

    At the time of this writing, we have had ourrst-ever Farmers’ Market session.

    Long-time and very valuable town stafferLisa Darrow, who has cheerfully agreed towear yet another hat (Market Manager) atopher many others, had this glowing report, towhich I can personally attest:

    “Many thanks to the residents and vendorswho helped make the April 7 launch of ourinaugural market season a clear success.We had great turnout, received manycompliments on the quality of the market andvendor products, and patrons appeared tohave a good time. We are thrilled to welcomeGruber Farms and Hiser Sea Farms to themarket beginning April 14. Gruber Farms,a family-owned CSA farm from St. George,will offer a variety of seasonal produce. HiserFarms offers seafood harvested right off ofBreach Inlet. This is as local as it gets. Welook forward to seeing everyone at the nextmarkets – Thursdays from 2:30 p.m. 7 p.m.through June 30 at Battery Logan next to

    the school and library. Visit our social mediafor more market details: @simarket2016(Twitter) and sifarmersmarket (Facebook andInstagram).”

    BUDGET TIME

    We on Town Council have for some timebeen working on the Town’s budget for thenext scal year, which commences July 1,2016. This is when we focus both on fundingthose activities which are absolutely essentialand on deciding which other projects weshould prioritize for the coming year. Please

    come out to our meetings if you wish toprovide input.

    When you dig into the particulars of ourlittle Town’s budget, you might be surprisedat the cost of some items, for example…

    “DOO” DILIGENCE

    Annual cost of those plastic bags providedat our beach paths for collection of doggiedeposits (covered by dog registration fees):

    About $6,000!Avoiding stepping in what would otherwise

    have been left behind: Priceless!

    SPEAKING OF PICKING UP STUFF

    Although the trafc suggests our beachseason has already begun, remember that westart our summer schedule of twice a weekgarbage pickup (Tuesdays and Fridays) therst week of June.

    SPEAKING OF BEACH SEASON

    For some time I have been promotingthe idea of real-time trafc cameras onthe Causeway so that a) our residents cansee vividly what the trafc status is, whenconsidering leaving or returning to the Island;and b) potential day visitors can see whatconditions are like and use that informationin deciding whether it's the right time for aday trip.

    You will have read in this paper thatCharleston County has agreed to fund theinstallation of real-time trafc cameras onthe Causeway and other roadways to our andother beaches. Thanks to County ChairmanElliott Summey and our County Councilman

    an’s Island has been named one of the happiest

    de Towns in America by Coastal Living magazine.

    HOW DOES YOUR GARDEN GROW?

    In a new column, Isle of Palms’resident and gardening expertWendy Sang will be offering ourreaders tips on how to grow theirgardens on a barrier island.

    Idon't want to alarm anyone, butthere is a rumor going aroundthat spring has sprung. And

    frankly, if ridding your front porchof pollen with a snow blower isn’tenough proof for you, considerthe arrival of songbirds, warmertemperatures, daylight savingstime, and of course, tourists.

    But spring around here can beseriously eeting. I mean, we’retalking about that tiny slice oftime between dreary winter daysand the looming steam bath werefer to as a Lowcountry summer.And eeting or not, this is handsdown the best time to tackle

    anything and everything in the yard and garden. Comfortabletemperatures, more hours ofdaylight, and only the occasionalmosquito? Why, that’s a southerntrifecta!

     That said, it's a good idea to havea plan of action. Go get yourself acold beverage, take a walk around your outdoor spaces and give somethought to what you really wantout of it this year. More color? Lessmaintenance? More butteries?Less deer? I always say there's aplant for every purpose, and it'strue; so think about what youwant to accomplish, and go fromthere.

    We are lucky to be able togrow a huge variety of plants inthis part of the country, and lotsof them will happily do doubleduty. For example, blueberries,raspberries, pomegranate andcitrus all perform well here and,bonus, in addition to bearing fruit,they have great ornamental valuein the landscape. Plus, if you’veever smelled citrus blossoms, well,I don’t have to tell you that it’spure heaven. I happen to have acouple of blueberry bushes (always

    plant at least two for best fruit

    production) in containers by myfront door, and every summer theyare absolutely covered in berries. Ican grab a handful every morningfor several weeks, even after thebirds eat their share. Talk aboutfast food!

     The most important thing toconsider, no matter what you’replanting, is how much sun you getand at what time of day. Direct,late afternoon sun is akin to aamethrower around here, andcan wither many plants, even oneswe typically consider sun lovers,like petunias and geraniums. Thatsaid, if you buy plants from a bigbox store or national chain, bearin mind that their plant tags arenot regionally specic, so buyerbeware. The other day I saw adisplay of primrose at Lowes,under a sign that said “full sun.”If I’d had a sharpie marker on me,I would’ve scribbled underneath,“Don’t even think about it. This isCharleston, people!”

    Whatever your plans are forthe upcoming growing season,there's no better time to plantthan now. It's warm enough forplants to start establishing their

    root systems, yet still cool enough

    to promote slow, steady, and mostimportantly, healthy growth. Sodare to dream, fellow gardenersand aspiring gardeners; thepromise of a beautiful, bountifulgarden is completely within yourgrasp. And there’s no better timeto get started than right now.Robin Williams once said, “Spring

    is nature’s way of saying, ‘let’s

    party!’” and I couldn’t agree more.So don't wait--let's all get out thereand get our hands nice and dirty.It’s time to seize the dig!

    S

    o those dang people are back calling, emailing and poppingup on your computer trying to convince you that something iswrong with your computer. Don’t believe them!

    It's a lie, no one can "see" that your laptop, box, tablet, wirelessrouter, smart TV, toaster, whatever, has a virus or malware through your phone. It's a hoax and all they want is your money. The emaildoes not have special powers and it cannot "x" your problems with"just one click"… it can cause you a whole lot of problems with thatone "click" though.

    When you get a call from someone, answer an ad from an emailor a website and the rst thing the person wants is to get into yourdevice, then that's the last thing you want to let them do. First offthe "person" you are talking to may or may not be the person whois actually remoting (taking control of it remotely) into your deviceand whoever it is can show you pictures of what they are supposedlydoing while doing something completely different.

    Many computers in the US are infected with a botnet (someestimates says 18 a second worldwide become infected), some comefrom just this sort of scam. Even the best person you might get is

    still just a scam and after you pay that $39 or $59 fee (in some casesit's $299), suddenly about 3-6 months later you device begins to lagand then just won't work… you call because you have this promisethat they will "x" and then you nd out that sort of problem is notcovered and it will be an additional $199 or I've seen as much as$499.

    If someone calls tell them you've contacted the FBI and all yourcalls are now monitored, that you son/daughter is a FBI agent or is

    an IT person, or better yet hang up. If theycall back don't answeror block the number,last resort do call theauthorities. If youhave been the victimof this, don't feel bad, you are not alone. Callme or your IT guy/gal,get them to help youand call your creditcard company andhave them stop thempayment—if it's beentoo long to stop it, thenmake sure they cannotnot bill you again. Thatis another trick; about3 months later you willget an autopay for thesame amount or maybedouble… so watch theaccounts.

    If you need help withyour computer or anyIT problem call Rent ABob at 843.822.7794or email [email protected]

    T he world today is a differentplace than what it waswhen we were growing up.

    act, our world has changed

    matically in just the lastyears given the escalating

    ability in the Middle East,icant disease and pestilence

    breaks, massive immigrations as a result of cultural/ious divides and wide

    ging acts of terror. This haslted in large-scale loss of

    compromised personalrty and ongoing fear in oury lives. These threats tod stability present seriouslenges to leadership both inUS and elsewhere and fullyerstanding the larger picture

    ains challenging.ast week, The World Affairsncil of Charleston, a regional

    ught leader in presenting andussing events that impact ourd, hosted Mr. Andrew Peek, aow in Middle Eastern Affairshe American Foreign Policyncil in Washington D.C.,The Citadel Alumni Centerdowntown Charleston. Peeke highly qualied to presentoverview of the continuingtility in the Middle East and: The Islamic State of Iraq anda. In addition to his afliation

    the Middle Eastern Affairsup, he teaches at Americanversity and at the school ofanced International AffairsJohns Hopkins Universityre he is a candidate for his. Peek also previously served

    a strategic adviser to the top

    US and NATO commanders inAfghanistan.

    Peek asserted that there is noone terrorist organization more

    feared or with a greater globalreach then ISIS, which nowcontrols a landmass roughly thesize of Massachusetts. ISIS’sprimary objective is to erase theexisting borders in the MiddleEast and create an independentSunni state that practicesstrict allegiance to Islamic law. The complexity of the variousreligious factions involved, newand emerging alliances withRussia, combined with a lack of ameaningful presence of Westernforces today, all contribute tothe ongoing challenges in the

    region. Peek believes that thisgrowing conict will not beresolved quickly and certainly notwithout sustained cooperationwith a multitude of regionaland international partners.While the presentation contentwas sobering, Peek effectivelysupported WAC’s charter thatgetting the best information outto the widest group of people is akey starting point toward effectiveresolution.

     The World Affairs Council ofCharleston was founded in theearly 1980s and operated for

    many years under the nameForeign Affairs Forum. When I satdown with Chuck Bensonhaver,president of WAC, he explainedthat the council is a non-partisan,not-for-prot organization servingas an informational/educationalresource for people interested

    in a broader and more in depthunderstanding of world events.Membership in the organizationis comprised of individuals from

    all walks of life and typicallyincludes people who have workedor served abroad. There arecurrently 286 active membersin the Charleston chapter withthe majority of members equallyrepresented from Mt. Pleasant/IOP/Sullivan’s Island, theCharleston Peninsula and John’sIsland, Seabrook and Kiawahislands. Bensonhaver proudlypointed to the partnership with The Citadel and the contributionmade by Al Thibault, the retiredforeign services ofcial who nowserves as head of Programs for

    WAC, for ramping up the qualityof subject matter and speakers.

    Memberships in the councilrun from the fall to spring, witha total of 6 events in each season.Prospective members are welcomeand encouraged to attend ameeting. Prospective membersmay attend one meeting as aguest for a nominal charge of $20per person and no preregistrationis required. The $20 guest feecan be applied towards themembership fee. In addition tothe above, WAC also offers aprogram to members called Great

    Decisions. Several groups of eightto 14 are organized in January ofthe new year and starting soonthereafter, the group meets twicea month through May. Beforethe discussion series begins, GDgroup members receive a currentbrieng book published by The

    Foreign Policy Association. Thebook highlights eight of the mostthought-provoking foreign policyissues currently facing America. It

    provides background information,current data and policy optionsfor each of the eight issues. Ledby one of the group's members,each discussion focuses on oneof the eight topics.

    Bensonhaver, Thibault, andother members of the executivecommittee are rightfully proudof the programs that WAC offersand look forward to growing theirmembership. Visit their websiteat WACCharleston.org and learnmore about an interesting andtimely program right here in theLowcountry.

     T he night was brisk, the music was spirited and thestore was packed. Red Bulls and Sweetwater IPAswere held in the hands of party goers, as friends,

    locals and vacationers celebrated the launch of SealandAdventure Sports new location at 2120 Middle St. onSullivan’s Island. As guests arrived through the door,they were greeted with a taste of the “island lifestyle,”

    surrounded by kiteboards, paddleboards and surfboardsalong with all the hottest beach attire.Over 200 people moved through the store, the crowd

    enjoyed themselves as the music rang loud from DJ Kilgoand Seth G on saxophone as the good vibes fowed. Rightas the party kicked off, Sealand received a shipment ofsurfboards custom made to perform well in the local surf.Each guest had the opportunity to listen in on a specialsurfboard lesson with local South Carolina shaper Trent,from Voyage surfboards.

    Along with traditional party events, such as dancing,eating appetizers from Poe’s Tavern and having a greattime, Sealand curated a pop up fashion show, whichincluded over a dozen male and female models. Thirtylooks were shown and partygoers were given the chance toview some of the hottest styles of clothing and swimwearfor the upcoming summer season.

    Sealand owner Scott Hyland, Manager AlejandroFerreyros and Fashion Show Coordinator Jess Feller spentweeks putting together a list of local models and selectingthe top styles from each of the brands they offer.

    Delta Pharmacy celebratesthe one-year anniversaryof its Isle of Palms store

    June 1. The family-owned,pendent pharmacy has beencing the lowcountry since1930s and now has seven

    ions in the area.When we opened the IOPion almost a year ago, mywas to help grow it into a

    ted, valuable asset of themunity,” says Joe Gandy,macist in Charge. “I believehave already started doingand am condent we willinue.”elta launched its Free Kidsmin program September ofyear, and now provides all

    dren between 5 and 12 a one-supply of complimentary

    mins. Parents simply needme into the store to registerchild and receive a one-

    th supply of fruit-avoredwable multivitamins for ayear. Gandy says they havemitted to this programuse Delta believes in the

    ortance of children takingaily multivitamin to boostunity, protect against illnesssupport healthy growth and

    abolism.aily multivitamins are not

    nded to be the primaryce of nutrients,” Gandy

    says. “But they can serve as asafe and convenient supplementto a healthy diet. With all theactivities many kids are involvedin, especially during the summer,it may be difcult to eat well-balanced meals every day. A

    multivitamin can help ll in the‘gap’ and help maintain overallhealth.”

     The vitamins were formulatedfor Delta Pharmacy and there isno family limit to the programso parents can sign up all theirchildren at once. This offerdoesn’t expire, so anyone lookingto register can stop in anytime.

    Gandy is an IOP local andgrew up living on the islandand in Mount Pleasant until heleft for college. “Returning fromClemson, I was lucky enough

    to move back to IOP for my four years of pharmacy school atMUSC,” he says. “I was oftenasked why I wanted to commutedowntown for class everydaybut never thought twice aboutit. Driving home across the Ben

    Sawyer or topping the Connectorwas always a clear reminder.After a long day at work orstudying, strolling down to thebeach or hopping in the golf cartto the marina are a couple greatways to relax.”

    Gandy especially enjoys theislands for their watersports; you can nd him in his free timesurng, paddle boarding, orboating with friends. You mightalso see him out and about withhis Boykin Spaniel, Adelaide.

     The most fullling part of

    Gandy’s job at Delta he says, is“recognizing patients both in thepharmacy and the communityand knowing them on a rst-name basis.”

    Another complimentaryservice that Delta Pharmacy

    is free prescription delivery onthe islands. This courtesy isespecially benecial for peoplewho are feeling under the weatheror cannot get out to pick up theirmedicine.

    “Assisting in the healthcare ofmy friends and neighbors is a rareopportunity in today’s pharmacyworld,” Gandy says. “I think theserelationships are invaluable in atight-knit community.”

    As part of its inaugural yearcelebration, and to highlight themedical equipment and supplyrental part of the business, theIOP Delta Pharmacy is currentlyrunning a rafe contest to win afree electronic motorized scooter.No purchase is required to enter. Just stop by the pharmacy duringbusiness hours and put yourname in the bowl for a chanceto win.
