Beautiful Island Square is featured on the Hilton Head Island Monopoly Board Game

Spoken by Many
By Taiwan “TAI” Scott

Born of a dream built on land 
tasked with becoming The First
firm in a stance faith in hand creativity emerged
da story will be shared far and wide of struggles
overcome 
destined to survive with positive vibes work has been 
done

Marked with a vision a story divine
of a square that is colorful designed to test time
from the roots of a land where ancestors turned
a foundation set a lesson learned
with smiling faces no matter the tide
everyone is welcome the culture survives

Wall mural of a journey times past to anew
blackened kettle on display free tiny art there too
aroma of flavors various vendors sale food
swing by and behold a vision come true

Da path has been blazed ideas long and wide
confirmed that the light will forever shine
Beautiful Island Square, vested in a stance
Gullah Geechee's on Hilton Head Island
This is not by chance.
