Beaufort County Historical Society

Award winning columnist, David Lauderdale, will be the keynote speaker for the 70th Annual Meeting of the Beaufort County Historical Society on May14. His topic will be “History, One Day at a Time”.
Lauderdale’s humorous and informative columns about life in the Lowcountry have appeared in the Island Packet and the Beaufort Gazette for over thirty years. He has won over a dozen first place writing awards, including the President’s Award from the McClatchy Company.

This will be David Lauderdale’s first engagement with the Beaufort County Historical Society. The event will take place at the Presbyterian Church Fellowship Hall on the corner of North and Church Streets in downtown Beaufort.

A light lunch will be served at 11:30am for a fee of $10.00. The program will begin at 12:00pm and is open to the public.

The Beaufort County Historical Society is the oldest organization in Beaufort County dedicated to the study and preservation of history.
