Kids in Kayaks
Mayor Alan Perry will join The Outside Foundation and local students for a morning of Kids in Kayaks, a hands-on environmental education program that takes learning out of the classroom and onto the waters of the Lowcountry.

What began with approximately 400 students from three schools has grown to reach more than 1,100 students from 14 Beaufort County middle schools, an investment in environmental education and the next generation of Lowcountry stewards.
Mayor Perry is proud to spend the morning with students, educators and volunteers who are helping ensure that caring for our Island is something the next generation learns by experiencing it firsthand.
Please note: Kids in Kayaks is a school-based educational program and is not open to the general public.

A Tribute to Mike Kavanaugh
For more than four decades, Mike Kavanaugh helped provide the soundtrack to life on Hilton Head Island and throughout the Lowcountry. A gifted guitarist, singer and entertainer, Mike became a familiar face, and unmistakable voice, at restaurants, resorts, celebrations and gathering places across our community. As a solo performer and longtime member of Jo Jo Squirrel and the Homepickles, Mike shared a remarkable range of music with generations of Islanders and visitors. He founded Jo Jo Squirrel in 1999 as the house band for Hilton Head’s Tiki Hut, and his music could be heard everywhere from Coligny and Harbour Town to weddings, oyster roasts and community celebrations.
But Mike’s impact extended well beyond the stage. He was known as a mentor and friend to fellow musicians, encouraging others in their careers and helping strengthen the community of artists and entertainers that has long been such an important part of Hilton Head Island.
On Sunday, August 16, local musicians, friends and members of the community will come together at FISH Casual Coastal Seafood to celebrate Mike’s life, music and the legacy he leaves behind. It is a fitting opportunity for Hilton Head Island to honor someone whose music was woven into so many memories made here.
All are invited to come celebrate Mike, share in the music and remember a life that gave so much to our Island.
