The Discretionary Grant Program is intended to support eligible organizations in carrying out projects that advance a legitimate public purpose and provide a direct and demonstrable benefit to the Town of Seabrook Island, including, but not limited to, its residents, property owners, visitors, and/or businesses.
Grant funds must be used to promote community wellness, civic engagement, cultural and historical awareness, economic vitality, environmental stewardship, and wildlife conservation in a manner consistent with applicable law, Town policy, and sound fiscal accountability.

Now is the time to organize your files and discard old, unneeded, or duplicate documents. Gone are the days when we have to keep backup pieces of paper. Most information is now available online and is easy to access.
This is also a good time to go paperless. Many companies, such as banks, credit cards, and insurance companies, offer this service. Not only is it safer, but it can also be helpful when you are away from home. A bonus is using less paper, which is good for the environment!
Since most of your documents probably have personal information, you don’t want to just throw them away. The best way to dispose of these documents is by shredding them.
It can be annoying to log into an account on your device and have to change the password on a moment’s notice. It is almost as bad when you have to set up an account, and they have different restrictions than you are used to. Hackers have become more adept at getting through the normal passwords, so it may be time to think about how you are going to change a password.
The College of Charleston Technology Team recommends the following:
AARP recommends using spaces between words, such as Hello Lovie Dovie.
Western Michigan University has compiled a great list of password suggestions.
Be creative, but be careful. The key is to make something that feels personal to you but wouldn’t make sense to anyone else.

Seabrook Island Lake House
Bob LeFevre, a resident of Seabrook Island and Salem, South Carolina, retired from a successful career in business at the age of 55 to pursue his passion…oil painting. Since he was a child, he loved the water and everything related to it. It was natural that his paintings from the beginning would depict scenes of life on and near the oceans and lakes he would visit throughout his life.
Bob’s painting career began when, at the urging of his fourth grade teachers, he was enrolled in private art classes. Here, at this early age, he began to develop his perceptual skills as an artist learning the fundamentals of rendering and depiction of values in a representational way.
