T

he 7th annual  30A Locals Last Stand party took place at Watersound Origins 
green lawn park on May 19. Known as the last chance before the mad dash 
of the summer season kicks off, the community gets together for some free-
to-the-public fun at the center of Watersound Origins. All are welcome to 

bring lawn chairs, blankets, and bug spray to this family-friendly event with live music 
from Chris Alvarado Trio, Huck and Lilly for the kids, and Dread Clampitt. Back Beach 
Barbeque, Temperley’s British Food Truck, Kona Ice, and Sweet Henrietta’s made for the 
perfect eats and treats for the whole family.

Along with filling up on delicious food, guests could shop 30A gear, Shine on Living 

skin care, and YOLO Board and Bike all while soaking up the sun and music. A photo 
booth was also available to capture the fun with props, and to keep the kids busy when 
they weren’t dancing to Huck and Lilly. It was a packed lawn from the start and a great 
relaxing day before the beaches get even more busy.
