To enhance visibility, we have upgraded the vehicle wrapping and branding for our Sea Pines Security patrol vehicles. Starting this month, the community will notice a few of our patrol vehicles with a new, prominent design. The new wrapping features bold colors and clear identification markings, ensuring that our security presence is easily recognizable at all times. Take a look at the upgraded branding pictured here!

We are thrilled to share the news about the reclamation of a former soil storage site in the Sea Pines Forest Preserve and transforming it into a new meadow habitat. This project will involve several key steps, including the removal of existing understory, debris removal, ground leveling and grading, soil preparation and vegetative monitoring for one to two growing seasons. These efforts are part of our comprehensive land management plan, aimed at improving and increasing the ecological value of our preserve. The new meadow habitat will not only enhance the beauty of our natural surroundings but also provide essential benefits for local wildlife and plant species. We look forward to keeping you updated throughout this ecological transformation.
