Tybee Island Main Street Update:From Historic Downtown to the Gateway

Tybee Island... Your Nostalgic Paradise to Live, Do Business and Visit Year-round.email [email protected]

GREETINGS TYBEE LOVERS!

The homegrown outdoor events highlighting the arts for those that live, work and play on Tybee, Third Thursdays on Tybee, kicked off last month for the spring season!

We are looking forward to this month’s performance with Jamie & Sandy on April 17 at 5:30pm. These two fabulous ladies are bringing their guitar, keyboard and ukulele to

the Lot at Tybee Oaks (1213 Highway 80) so they can share their unique “doo-wop” with you!

The following month on May 15, Tom Cooler will be performing downtown Tybee at the Tybrisa / Strand Roundabout beginning at 5:30pm! Tom will tell you stories of lives lived through his melodic vocals and guitar strumming fingers that will touch your soul and get your feet tapping.

Bring a chair, stroll the shops and grab a bite to eat while you enjoy the outdoor entertainment. Businesses throughout the Main Corridor welcome you to stop in while you are enjoying the arts on Tybee. More information is available on Third Thursdays on Tybee’s Facebook page.

Sponsorships packages are available. Plus, donations are accepted during the performances to assist the Main Street

Program’s efforts to host community based activities throughout the corridor.

The Tybee Island Information Provider (TIIP) Program begins again Memorial Day weekend. TIIP came to be following the MS Community Visioning Workshop where business and residents shared that they wanted a community driven way to provide guests that

are downfront with information. Since 2010, local volunteers (college age and up) have been making this successfully happen! As a resident, you know best what there is to do, where to shop, where to dine, and where to rest. If you can spare a few hours walking around downtown and / or “manning” the Info Booth at the Roundabout to share your hometown knowledge with visitors during the peak season, we want your help. Call the Main Street Office for more information.

The theme this year for May’s National Preservation Month is “Embark. Inspire. Engage.”

Our partners with the National Trust for Historic Preservation encourage a more active approach to celebrating our local history and historic places every year and we want you to be an active part of Tybee’s commitment to preservation. Think creatively and share your stories, activities and photos with us so that we may let the nation know how much Tybee celebrates history and our historic places. Send your stories and photos to [email protected] or post them on the Tybee Island Main Street FB page.

Enjoy springtime and remember how wonderful it is to be on Tybee. There is always something to do and to experience in our community…nature, history and, of course, doing business with your neighbors. The Business Assistance Committee appreciates the strong support everyone gives to “BUY LOCAL TYBEE”. As our community continues to grow and more people decide to make Tybee home, the Locals Appreciation Card support also strengthens. Thanks to the businesses that honor it and those that carry it!

For more information about the Tybee Island Main Street Program, upcoming city approved special events, “Corri-Door to Door News”, Business / Community Matters, and Historic Preservation Spotlights sign up for the monthly Main Street E-News by visiting the Main Street webpage (www.tybeeislandmainstreet.com). The Tybee Island Main Street FB page is updated on a regular basis as well. We invite you to like it.

Here’s to you and keeping Tybee, Tybee!Chantel (912.472-5071; [email protected])

As the beginning of the sea turtle season approaches there are a few things that Tybee residents and visitors can do to help our turtles have a safe place to nest.Firstofall,thebeachesmustbeasdarkaspossible.Rememberthat“SeaTurtlesDigtheDark”.Nowisthetimeto check your outdoor and landscape lighting. Those of you closest to thebeach,want tomake sure that the sourceof a light cannot be seen from the beach and does not cast a shadow on the beach at night. Also pay attention to window blinds and curtains; these should be closed during the season as close to dark as possible. You would beamazedathowclearatelevisionsetor lampfrominsidea window can light up a beach and cause shadows. These

shadows will deter an approaching female seeking a place to nest and cause babies emerging from a nest to head in a direction away from the ocean. Investing in a red filtered flashlight is anotherway to

help the turtles. The red filtered light does not deter a nesting mother or emerging baby as much as regular,whitelightdoes.Aninexpensivewaytomakearedfilteris to take a cheap flashlight and color the lens with a red Sharpiemarker, justmakesureit isdarkenoughtoshowa red tint, not a pink tint.

Tybee Wedding Chapel’s new ballroom is complete and we hosted our second event, one for the brides and grooms to preview the venue. It was a huge success. Ray Anaya, Director of Events for the chapel, hand selected caterers, Amy Harvey did the beautiful styling and flowers. Thank you, Ray, for an exceptional event. Carla, his exceptional assistant, was just beautiful while showing the brides, grooms and their families the venue.

We are happy to host Tybee Mix and Mingle on April 16, Wednesday, from 5-7 at the ballroom and welcome you to come and tour our venue and join in the party!

Again, I cannot express our heartfelt thanks to Anthony Sapone and his fabulous crew, Catskill Builders, for their tireless work to complete the majority of this huge project in just 97 days (and nights).

Lannie, thank you for working so hard and spending so many hours to make sure that this ballroom got completed. Our vision was to have the addition look as if it had always been a part of the original plan.

We have 52 weddings scheduled for 2014. We have already enjoyed a fabulous 15 day event with our dear friend, Suzanne Painter/Georgia Seminars by the Sea. She was our first Guest and those artists had a wonderful time. The weather even cooperated.

The Tybee Wedding Chapel has now become a conference center with complete audio/video package that sinks from one room to 2 others. Our friend, Michael Gaster, was instrumental in the planning and installation of the extensive audio/video system. Thank you, Michael!

U.S. Flag Code StandardS oF reSpeCt: The dictionary

defines respect as “an act of giving particular attention, a high or special regard, the quality or state of being esteemed, considered worthy of high regard, to have reverence, and to refrain from interfering with.” An older definition is “to look back.” Synonyms are: admiration, honor, high opinion, consideration, and “to value.”

These are appropriate concepts as relating to

our attitudes and behaviors toward the United States Flag. Even the older definition “to look back” provides insight as the story of our flag embodies our history. Our reverence for our flag is justified by past and present sacrifices for freedom and liberty.

retiring old FlagS: “The flag, when it is in such condition that it is no longer a fitting emblem of display, should be destroyed in a dignified way, preferably by burning.” (The United States Flag Code)

In many American communities, one or more organizations render an important community service by collecting and overseeing the proper disposal of old, worn, tattered, frayed and/or faded U.S. Flags. (The American Legion).

Katie’s First Chicken Pot Pie from ScratchMy granddaughter Katie,

at age 10, has already had years of experience with and exposure to all things food and all things kitchen. Of course eating is a given, but learning ingredients, herbs, spices, seasonings, meats, carbs, veggies and certainly ingredients for desserts. She has basically grown up constantly around kitchens, home and

restaurant and what goes on and who does it. Before she could walk or talk I would take different herbs from our garden and crumble them under her nose and tell her the names, basil, mint, parsley, herbs that were simple and distinct. Soon she would sit beside me in her high-chair and watch food being prepared (including hers) and I could see her interest in everything wonderful in the kitchen. As she learned how to talk it seemed that all of these kitchen things had their own names, she started learning to utter them right away, and they seemed to be part of a magical story. As she learned to stand and walk, she still wanted to be with me while I would cook. So we bought her a stool that would put her where she could see and touch and let her closely watch how things were prepared and assembled. She loved all of the tasting and smelling and started to show an interest in wanting to help. It seems like no time at all that she became my little chef apprentice. She would help stir, add measured ingredients, go to the garden and get herbs and any little things that were safe for her to do. Well before I knew it she really wanted to make something herself that she could taste and compare. So, it was time to really give her some independence and a little area next to me that was hers. I gave her some small pots and some safe utensils and started teaching her how to go about putting together a real recipe. She was so cute with her little apron, chef’s toque and towel over the shoulder. All that said she really learned essentials quickly. She became aware of cleanliness, hot things, sharp things and respect for equipment and safety. Soon I started teaching her knife skills (with a table knife of course), how to position your hand on what you are holding, to be safe and not cut yourself. Then we moved to measurements, and “mis en place” (having all of your ingredients and equipment ready before starting a recipe). Then how to read and write a recipe to use as a guide. Soon she was making her own soups and broths using all of the real-deal ingredients to make something that was actually tasty, completely on her own....cutting carrots, celery etc. adding tied herb bundles, spices and the right amount of liquid and placing on the stove with the right amount of heat, or as she has learned BTB and RTS, bring to boil and reduce to simmer. I could keep going with this little biography of this little chef’s apprentice but will sum it up by saying, she came to me and said that she wanted to make a real meal from a recipe all by herself. I thought, what a great idea, and decided on a large chicken pot pie. This is what she did mostly (95%) by herself. When I tasted this and it was so delicious, proud hardly covers it!

IngREdIEnTS:

1/4 cup (1/2 stick) unsalted butter1 large shallot, finely chopped

1 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme1/3 cup Wondra or all purpose flour, plus a little extra for surface

3 cups low sodium chicken broth1 cup whole milk

Salt and fresh ground black pepper to taste6 small carrots, peeled and chopped

4 cups coarsely chopped or shredded chicken meat (from one rotisserie chicken, lemon pepper)

1 1/2 cups frozen pearl onions, thawed1 1/2 frozen peas, thawed

1/4 cup chopped fresh flat leaf parsleyHot sauce

Worcestershire sauce1 sheet frozen puff pastry (one 14oz. pkg. or half of 17.3oz. package),

thawed in refrigerator1 large egg, beaten to blend

PREPARATIOn:Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Heat butter in large skillet over

medium heat. Add shallot and thyme and cook, stirring often, until shallot is

translucent and golden, about 4 mins. Add 1/3 cup flour and cook, whisking constantly, until mixture is a pale golden and smells like popcorn, 5-8 minutes.

Whisk in broth 1/2 cupful at a time, incorporating completely before adding more. Whisk in milk; season with salt and pepper. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer, whisking occasionally, until mixture is thick enough to coat a spoon, 10-15 minutes.

Add carrots and cook until just tender, about 5 minutes. Mix in chicken, onions , peas, and parsley; season with hot sauce, Worcestershire sauce, salt and pepper.

Transfer mixture to shallow 2 qt. baking dish (casserole). Unfold pastry and gently roll out on a lightly floured work surface just to smooth the creases and make large enough to fit over dish, if needed. drape over baking dish and trim pastry so it is slightly larger than dish (you want a little overhang). Brush with egg and make 2 or 3 slits in the pastry with a sharp knife.

Place baking dish on a rimmed baking sheet (to catch any filling that may drip over) and bake until golden brown and filling is bubbling through slits in pastry, 20-25 minutes. Reduce heat to 350 degrees and bake until pastry is deep golden brown and cooked through, 30-35 minutes longer. Let sit 10 minutes or longer before serving.

She served by itself and it was scrumptious, seconds were a must! Making this meal from start to finish gave Katie a sense of how much time and work goes into making a meal and the satisfaction of making something so delicious on her own (with very minimal assistance).

Hope you enjoy as much as we did.Little Chef’s Apprentice Katie

Our little island’s tour of homes has raised over $200,000 these past years, and three local organizations will benefit once again. They are our new school, the Tybee Island Maritime Academy TIMA), our food pantry the Rising TYde, and our summer sleep-away camp for children, the Fresh Air home.

Each of these many years the tour has been unique. Never has a home been duplicated in seventeen tours. A true testament to the people of Tybee, who open their homes in this manner. This year we have nine properties, including two condominiums for the first time. Seven of these homes are occupied by full time residents. All of them are decorated in the style of island living, some quirky like Tybee, others very stylish. Docents in each home tell the stories of the properties history or of the renovation to bring the property back to life.

The tour usually takes place the first Saturday in June. This year it is June 7th. Many people plan their vacations around the date, making sure that the tour is one local activity they cannot miss. We have repeat costumers, year after year. We have come to know them and look forward to seeing them each year at our luncheon. As always, a delicious lunch, prepared by our own committee, is included in the ticket price. Tickets are available using Paypal on our website, tybeeislandtour.com or at The Gallery by the Sea. They cost $40 before June 7th and $45 the day of the tour.

The Tybee Tour of Homes committee and the organizations we are supporting are hoping that you will come and enjoy this years tour. Rain or shine, from 10am-4pm visit some old Tybee friends or make new ones. We know that you will enjoy the day.
