Time for Tea Rooms

Many Charleston area churches host spring tea rooms where old favorites like okra soup, chicken salad, shrimp salad, and tomato pie, as well as desserts such as Tipsy Pudding, Hummingbird Cake, and Lady Baltimore Cake, are made and served by volunteers. The tea rooms usually operate for only a week or two in the spring and are open only for lunch. There are often gift shops offering handmade items for sale.

Shredding Event Wednesday, April 8

Town of Seabrook Island
Wednesday, April 8, 2026
10:00 am – 1:00 pm

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.

Thank You from SIV

Thanks to all of our players for joining us at our Mah Jongg FUNd-raiser on Thursday, February 26 at the Seabrook Island Club. We welcomed over 80 “mavens” to the Atlantic Room for a delicious breakfast of pastries and beverages, three rounds of Mah Jongg, a lovely buffet luncheon, a heartfelt drawing, a raffle for a Mah Jongg set, and an abundance of door prizes. We hope you had a wonderful time playing, socializing, and enjoying the company of old and new Mah Jongg enthusiasts.

A successful event is only as good as its attendees and volunteers… and ours were amazing!

Much appreciation to the mavens who shared their MahJongg sets at our event and our kind sponsors and donors-we couldn’t have done it without you!
