	Keith Suttle, Sales Executive ksuttle@bhisland.com A Wilmington native who has been visiting “Smith” Island since the 60’s when his Boy Scout Troop would camp on South Beach near Capt Charlie’s. I have watched Bald Head from the building of the golf course in ’72 to working with the club in conjunction with my Golf Tourism company during the 80’s and 90’s. The manner in which Bald Head has been developed has always impressed me. Although a fairly large community, it maintains that special uniqueness that is not easy to find. Bald Head Island cultivates that family feeling and has much room for growth without ever feeling overcrowded. I am thrilled to be a part of Bald Head Island and look forward to seeing this distinctive community grow.
