Annual event celebrating 20th year

One of Hilton Head Island’s most popular festivals, HarbourFest at Shelter Cove Harbour, will begin Tuesday, June 3 through the end of summer with family-oriented activities and entertainment throughout the summer. Activities will run from 6 to 9:30 p.m.

The festival has been celebrated for more than two decades and offers amazing live entertainment, seven nights a week, all summer long.

This celebration will feature food, arts and crafts, nightly live entertainment and a spectacular fireworks display above Shelter Cove Harbour every Tuesday evening at dusk. HarbourFest begins at 6 p.m. and ends at 9:45 p.m. nightly. The waterfront also offers the perfect place to watch the sunset on Hilton Head Island, adding to the festival’s ambiance.

Entertainment will include performances by singer/songwriter Shannon Tanner with two shows at 6:30 and 8 p.m. All events at Shelter Cove Harbour are free and open to the public. Tanner’s shows are a mixture of ’60s standards, sing-alongs, original ballads, and children’s favorites.

Just thought I would let you know that we are now home from Hilton Head
(unfortunately) after a fantastic holiday, and Xanadu C6 was fantastic accommodation, very high standard and very well situated, so thanks very much  Your instructions on how to find your office and then the accommodation were also spot on too.

thanks again

Come and join us for a weekend fine arts and crafts at The Art Market at Historic Honey Horn. This event is in its 8th year and will take place at The Coastal Discovery Museum. The Honey Horn, is a 68 acre historic property in the center of Hilton Head Island. This site has hosted the Museum’s Community Festival, the Hilton Head Kennel Show, the Concours d’Elegance and many other community events.

Honey Horn is the oldest and only surviving plantation home in Hilton Head. It was once owned by legendary Wall Street tycoon Alfred Lee Loomis and now plays host to a prime Hilton Head events. Honey Horn is the only plantation on Hilton Head Island that has an original plantation house standing today. It’s earliest documented use was as a working farm in 1805.

So come and join us and take in a bit of art during your Hilton Head Island vacation April 26th and April 27th, 2008.

The Verizon Heritage begins this week with a pretty strong field in attendance. Although only seven of the top 20 in the FedEx Rankings will play this week, the field also contains Chris DiMarco, Jim Furyk, Zach Johnson, Tom Lehman, Justin Leonard, Davis Love III, Jesper Parnivek David Toms, and the 2007 winner Boo Weekley.

The Verizon Heritage has produced first-time winners on the PGA Tour the last three years. They include Peter Lonard in 2005, Aaron Baddeley in 2006 and Weekley last year. What made Weekley’s victory even more exciting was chipping in on the last two holes of the tournament to beat Els by a one stroke.

This week, nearly a quarter of the field will be coming from Georgia at Augusta National Golf Club. The players will try to relax from a week of pressure at a major championship, they’ll have to switch their games to a much smaller course.Harbour Town is a only 6,913 yards long compared to Augusta National’s 7,445 yards. The course, designed by Pete Dye and Jack Nicklaus, is known for its tight fairways, which are lined by tall pines, waste areas, and water hazards. This layout leaves a very small playing area and undersized greens.

This will be an extremely tough test for the players, since Harbour Town, one of the shortest courses on the PGA Tour, remains tricky course to score well on. The course ranked the 19th most difficult last year. So, this Hilton Head golf course will probably provide a stiff test and not allow a run-away.
