Safely Navigating the Leisure Trails in Sea Pines

The leisure trails in Sea Pines are shared by joggers, bikers, and walkers. Below are 5 important leisure trail rule reminders to ensure everyone can enjoy the trails safely:

• Stay in single file on the right side of the trail.
• Pedestrians have the right of way on trails. To pass walkers on a bicycle, announce “Passing on left”.
• Be aware: Vehicles are not required to stop while you are waiting to cross a roadway. Be sure to stop at every leisure trail stop sign.
• Maintain a safe speed. No motorized vehicles on trails (includes e-bikes & scooters).
• Use of roadway, where leisure trail exists, is prohibited.

Notice from SCDNR: It's Fawning Season in South Carolina

It is not uncommon to find a fawn alone at this time of year. Here’s what you need to know about fawning season:

• The peak timing of deer fawns being born in SC is late May and early June.
• Until they are several weeks old and strong enough to keep up with their mothers, fawns are purposely left alone most of the day and night by their mothers (does) who stay away from the fawns to avoid leading predators to their location. Does visit their fawns for a few minutes 2-4 times each day to move, groom and nurse them.
• Well-meaning humans often assume that because a fawn is alone it must be an orphan, leading to numerous fawn “kidnappings” each year.
• Fawns are typically left in an area with tall grass or brush, but sometimes they are left in more open areas, including backyards and near houses.

If you see a fawn bedded down, it's best to leave it alone. If you see a fawn in danger (on a road or driveway) or in distress, contact Sea Pines Security at 843-671-7170.

Safety Reminder: Remove the Opportunity for Theft by Securing your Vehicle

• Always lock your car doors.
• Completely close all your windows, including the sunroof.
• Keep personal belongings and valuables out of sight or take them with you when leaving vehicles unattended.

When you see something that looks out of place, please report it to our security department promptly by calling 843.671.7170. Thank you for your assistance in helping to keep our community safe.
