Sun City Hilton Head Activities

John March www.johnmarchrealtor.com: Real Estate Agent in Bluffton, SC

In Sun City, about 2/3rds of the residents are retired. But, I gotta tell ya, they are not sitin' home watchin' the tube and eatin' Twinkies: They are OUT having FUN.

Sun City does have a number of people who are also single. There are ways for singles to meet each other through clubs, and events. These activities offer an opportunity to go on a date without breaking the bank! Same goes for those who are married.

Here are some examples of monthly activities in Sun City Hilton Head

Sun City Hilton Head has it's own Activities Department: This is from their web page:

"We are a multi-faceted department. We book all of the Sun City Hilton Head facilities. We also coordinate, manage and promote all community-wide events (such as the Easter Egg Hunt, the Fourth of July Fireworks Cookout and Celebration, Kid's Days and the upcoming Summer Pool Parties). We work with all of the Chartered Clubs and we help residents establish new Clubs. Last, but not least, we seek out, interview, plan and host all special events, to include performers, musicians, and seminars that occur here at Sun City Hilton Head."

Below are some typical examples of special events held in Sun City Hilton Head on a regular basis.

Sun City's Statford Village Neighborhood has Gone to The Pigs

Feral Pigs

Photo From Bluffton Today Sept 25th, 2008 Edition

As reported by Bluffton Today's Carl Lehman--there has been a wild pig sighting caught on camera by one of our residents. These creatures can do some damage to your lawn but there are things you can do to deter the critters--spray anti-deer spray, for one. You can also apply anti-grub spray to your lawn. The pigs feed on these and can make a mess of your lawn. No Grubs, no Pigs.

I don't want you to think we have some version of "Wild Kingdom" in Sun City. Wild life is a fact of life in the "Low Country" and Sun City. You'll see deer, alligators sunning themselves on one of our many lagoons or sometimes you can see wild turkeys in the woods. Essentially, if you let them be, they are not usually a problem.
