SIAG June Artist of the Month-Bob LeFevre

Posted on May 24, 2022 by seabrookislandblog

Bob LeFevre, a resident of Seabrook Island and Salem, SC, retired from a successful career in business at the age of 55 to pursue his passion for oil painting. Since childhood, he loved the water and everything related to it, so naturally his painting from the start would depict scenes of life on and near the oceans and lakes he would visit throughout his life.

Bob’s painting career began early. At the urging of his fourth grade teachers, he was enrolled in private art classes. With these classes he began to develop his perceptual skills as an artist, learning the fundamentals of rendering and depiction of values in a representational way. He continued these lessons throughout elementary and high school. Bob joined every art club and organization he could and soon began winning awards, the first of which was a sculpture scholarship at a local academy. He still enjoys sculpting to this day.

At the age of eighteen, Bob took private lessons from a retired sea captain in Cape Cod, Massachusetts. There he painted his first clipper ship and his passion for painting scenes of the sea was born.

Bob attended Colgate University majoring in business and selecting art as a second major. He earned extra money drawing caricatures of his classmates and selling them to teachers and local town’s people.

After graduation, Bob pursued a career in business knowing he would eventually return to art on a full-time basis. After 33 years as an executive with Proctor and Gamble, PepsiCo, and as owner of The United States Playing Card Co., he retired to pursue his dream of painting full time.

Continually driven to develop his skills, Bob sought out life drawing lessons that included nine years at the Academy of Cincinnati, Plein air workshops and by teaching drawing and painting to teenagers and adults.

Bob maintains studios at both his Seabrook Island and Salem, SC homes, the latter sits on Lake Keowee in upstate SC. Bob has been giving weekly individual and group art lessons to several Seabrook, Kiawah and Johns Island artists for over 14 years. He always welcomes new participants. If you are interested in lessons, please contact Bob at: rodory@gmail.com or 513-237-4757.

Bob was President and Vice President of Education for the Seabrook Island Artist Guild with over 100 members. He was represented by the Spencer Art Galleries in Charleston and now maintains a gallery at his home on Seabrook Island.

Please join Bob for a reception on June 1 from 4:30-6:30 pm. The reception will be held at The Lake House.

Seabrook Island Turtle Patrol Report for Week of May 14

Posted on May 23, 2022 by seabrookislandblog

Nest 2 – May 14, 2022
Seabrook Island now has Loggerhead Turtle nest number 2. Lesley and Tony Gore reported that they not only found a crawl but the Momma was still on the beach! With great excitement, but at a respectful distance, turtle patrol volunteers paced the beach like nervous grandparents in the maternity waiting room. The mother took almost an hour and a half to finish laying her eggs before returning to the sea. A lure and fishing line were revealed to be wrapped around the turtle’s front flipper on her journey back to the water. Fortunately, the hook hadn’t become embedded in the flipper and an experienced volunteer managed to remove it without incident. If you see a nesting turtle or one that is in distress or entangled, do not approach it and keep any dogs away. Please call the Turtle Patrol at 843-310-4280. The nest was left in-situ North of Boardwalk 1. 

 Click here to watch a video of the turtle that laid nest 2 returning to the sea.

Nests 3 and 4 – May 17, 2022
The fortunate trio, Christine Dudzik, Tom Lamb and Bob Enzerra, found two nests on the Camp Saint Christopher end of the beach. They found nest number 3 near the cross at the camp. There were 138 eggs that were relocated nearby to higher ground. The eagle-eyed crew found the next nest in spite of the fact that the mother turtle’s inbound crawl was no longer visible. Nest 4 had a record breaking 178 eggs that were relocated close to nest 3. SCDNR indicated there have only been 111 out of more than 127,000 total nests since 1980 that have had 178 eggs or more. Congratulations to Christine Dudzik, Tom Lamb, Bob Enzerra and the intrepid turtle Momma. 

Nest 5 – May 18, 2022
Walkers Lesley and Tony Gore found nest 5 near Camp Saint Christopher’s kayak shed. The nest has been left in-situ but extra protection has been added since this can be a heavily trafficked area. As you may recall, Lesley and Tony also found nest 2 on May 14. Keep up the good work, Lesley and Tony.

Nest 6 – May 19, 2022
Seabrook Island Turtle Patrol volunteers, Lucy and Ray Hoover, Carole Heilman and Amy Kashmer located a crawl in front of Camp Saint Christopher’s chapel. Three crab holes helped pinpoint the exact location of the nest. Unfortunately, one egg was lost to the crabs but the 127 remaining eggs were moved to a safer location.

Seabrook Island Flooding & Drainage Management Presentation

Wednesday, June 1, 5:30 pm
Live Oak Hall, The Lake House

Our tropical season begins June 1!  Come listen to the experts. Blair Holloway, lead meteorologist at the National Weather Service, will share the sources of flooding in the Seabrook area, including excessive rain, tidal flooding, and storm surge from tropical systems. 

He will speak about the seasonal outlook upon us.  Steve Hirsch, PE, PMP, SIPOA Operations, will update you on the Seabrook Island stormwater drainage projects underway and planned.  He will demonstrate Seabrook tidal flood and storm surge scenarios at the parcel level using online education tools his team has developed.  This event is part of an ongoing Seabrook Island Flood Education Program introduced last year.

Good Grief: A Natural and Normal Response to Loss

Wednesday, June 8, 2022
Live Oak Hall, The Lake House
5:30 pm

 Complimentary wine will be served from 5:30 pm to 6:00 pm 


This presentation by Debbie Easterling will explore loss, grief, and grieving. We will have an interactive and open discussion of why it is difficult to talk about loss and grief – and why it is beneficial to do so. The universality of loss and grief will be emphasized, as it is simply part of the human experience. The goal is to normalize the topic of grief; to move from a grief avoidance perspective to one of grief acceptance and advocacy.
