Our Public Safety Awards ceremony will be on January 16 at 6 PM at the Firehouse on the West Erie Avenue side. All are welcome to attend. Awards will be given to the Firefighter of the Year and the Police Officer of the Year. We will be having a cookout, so bring a side dish and come join the fun.

Also coming up is our Golf Tournament on February 25 at the Charleston Muni. We have always filled the field, so if you’ve got a team, registration is available below, but hurry! We welcome any donations for our raffle and gift bags. There’ll be food and beverages served during and after the event.

To recap our 2024 year, we helped several organizations, including:

• The Drew Wynne Foundation
• The Warrior Surf Foundation
• The Garden Club
• HALOS
• Coastal Carolina Vacations Foundation
• Veterans Supply Drive
• Save the Light
• The First Baptist Church
• The Civic Club
• Surfer’s Healing
• Student Scholarships and more!

We’ve put flags in our youth’s hands, put up flags for our servicemen and veterans, created a youth cleanup project for seniors’ yards, honored our Public Works and Public Safety, hosted a Golden Age Dinner for our widows and widowers, and cooked out for Family Fun Night.

We invite you to join The Exchange Club of Folly Beach to give back to the community.
