The popular event in its 24th year did not disappoint. A dozen restaurants, businesses, and firemen all put forth their best flavor and effort to take home bragging rights for "best wing".
The Wing Eating Contest saw the return of 2018 champion Dwayne Gibbs from Charlotte in a crowd of a dozen.

Owners of a popular Latin American restaurant that abruptly closed last year said they are “thrilled” to reopen in a new spot on Hilton Head.
Tio’s Latin American Kitchen will open in Shelter Cove Towne Centre between late spring and early summer, according to Sally Zuniga, who co-owns the restaurant with her husband Lynden, and their business partner Eliha Bitton. Lynden also serves as executive chef of the restaurant.

Hilton Head coffee lovers, we have good news for you: Starbucks at Shelter Cove Towne Centre will open soon.
The Starbucks near the Kroger Fuel Center is scheduled to open its doors March 1, according to Roni Allbritton, a representative of Shelter Cove Towne Centre. The 2,500-square-foot store will also feature a drive-thru.
As for the other half of the building, Chipotle is no longer a proposed tenant to share the 4,000-square foot building, Allbritton said. In April, the town’s design review board approved plans for Chipotle and Starbucks to occupy the location, according to previous Island Packet reporting.

A seasonal Lululemon will open May 25 at Shelter Cove Towne Centre on Hilton Head Island, store manager Brit Clause said Tuesday.
The store will sell the same products as other Lululemon stores but will close Sept. 9.
Memorial Day, formerly called Decoration Day, was established in May 1868 to remember those who gave the ultimate sacrifice during the Civil War. After World War I the holiday was expanded to include the remembrance of all Americans who have so selflessly sacrificed their lives for our country. By 1971 Memorial Day was recognized as an official federal holiday. While many believe the real reason for this holiday is obscured by the concerts, barbecues, and celebrations that most Americans participate in, we think the time away from work spent with friends and family is a great way to honor those who have laid down their lives for our freedoms. The brave men and women in our nation’s history fought for our unalienable rights to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. With reverence to those individuals and their families, we choose to live life to the fullest, especially during Memorial Day Weekend.
Hilton Head Island is the perfect place to celebrate our nation's freedom with those who matter most.

In an effort to cut down on heavy tourist traffic on Hilton Head’s south end, a trolley service will begin running from mid-island to the Coligny area this summer.
Although a firm date has not yet been set, mid-July is the anticipated start of the service, which will run from Shelter Cove to Coligny Beach, a draft route shows.
“Recognizing the need to reduce the number of cars on the road, especially during tourist season, Town Council agreed to partner with Palmetto Breeze to fund an urban service,” said Anne Cyran, senior planner for the town. “The immediate vision is going to be a trolley that runs during tourist season through the main commercial areas on the island.”

Plans to construct a building for Chipotle and Starbucks at Shelter Cove Towne Centre first came before the Town of Hilton Head during spring of last year.
The plans received approval from the town in June.
Yet, work hasn’t started on the building.
Last week, a sign of hope for burrito and coffee lovers was before the town’s Design Review Board. The developers of the building asked the board for an alteration to plans regarding the parking lot — and it was approved.

You might have noticed the Shelter Cove Towne Centre holiday light display wasn’t quite as colorful as in previous years, as the thousands of lights that normally draped over the road were missing.
That’s because the Dove Street Festival of Lights was replaced with a new event called “‘Tis the Season” after a three-year partnership with the Dove Street Founders ended last year, according to Roni Allbritton, a Towne Centre official.
“It was decided to bring a new and fresh approach to the holiday season at (Shelter Cove Towne Centre) this year,” Allbritton said in an email Wednesday. “This year we wanted to carry lights throughout the entire center.”
