July 2024

Welcome to the July edition of Social Coastal! This month, we celebrate the vibrant and influential duos in our Power Couples and Dynamic Duo Edition. These pairs—whether in love, business, or friendship—exemplify the strength and synergy of collaboration and shared vision. Their diverse journeys remind us of the magic that happens when passionate individuals come together.

Reflecting on our recent 4th of July celebrations, this year was truly spectacular. The festivities were a grand success, drawing a record number of tourists to our shores to enjoy fireworks, beach parties, thrilling fishing tournaments, and lively festivals that added to July’s festive spirit.

In this edition, we spotlight inspiring individuals. Community Leader Joni Blalock is celebrated for her impactful local work. In S|Art, Nick Cantrell dazzles with innovative art. Shane Alexander shares his journey in our PYSK segment, and Frances Holk-Jones is honored in Impact & Giveback for her remarkable philanthropy. Additionally, don’t miss our bridal feature on Ann and Tyler, whose love story adds a touch of romance. Whether you’re a local or visitor, thank you for joining us in celebrating our community’s charm and spirit in this edition of Social Coastal.
