June 2025

June on the Eastern Shore brings sunshine, fresh energy, and meaningful moments—and this issue reflects just that. From Stars, Stripes & Style at Fairhope Yacht Club benefitting local Veterans to Shuck Cancer at Oak Hollow Farm and Celebrate Life at The Apiary—focused on community health—we’re celebrating connection and purpose.

We’re grateful to three outstanding local schools for allowing us to celebrate their graduates. Congratulations to the kindergarten class of St. James Episcopal on moving up to first grade, Christ the King’s 8th grade class as they head to high school, and Bayside Academy’s seniors—we can’t wait to see all you’ll achieve!

In this issue, don’t miss SuperMom Suntrease Williams-Maynard, a shining example of purpose and determination. We’re also spotlighting Breighanna Vigor in Community Leader—founder of Stopping Traffick, a nonprofit empowering survivors and raising awareness about human trafficking and online exploitation. We’re certain you’ll enjoy their stories and those of the other inspiring individuals and organizations we’ve featured.

As we step into summer, may this issue inspire you to stay engaged, celebrate often, and continue sharing the spirit of the Eastern Shore.
