David Lauderdale, senior editor and columnist at The Island Packet and The Beaufort Gazette, spoke to the Bluffton Rotary Club on August 9. His main message was to “slow down”…slow down the growth and pace in Bluffton and keep what we all love about Bluffton intact. Lauderdale shared many stories about Bluffton and Hilton Head, from his 40 years spent in the LowCountry, and some scandals too. We have quite a history here and we should all help keep Bluffton alive and special beyond the “next 40 years”.
