Our 2026 Retreat

💚 Sisterhood, Sunshine, and Smooth Steps! 💚

What a wonderful Retreat Weekend for the Hilton Head (SC) Chapter of The Links, Incorporated! Our time together was filled with friendship, service, reflection, laughter, and unforgettable memories.

We celebrated sisterhood during Links After Dark.

🧴 We assembled toiletry donations to support students at our beloved HBCUs.

📖 We shared wisdom and encouragement through The Book of Linkspirations.

📸 We captured the beauty of our sisterhood during an elegant all-white beach photo shoot.

💚 Our Connecting Links Retreat provided meaningful opportunities for fellowship, relaxation, and connection.

Every experience reminded us that when we come together with purpose, we strengthen our bonds and expand our impact. We left the retreat refreshed, inspired, and ready to continue moving forward—together.

One Chapter. Bold Vision. Boundless Impact.

The 45th National Assembly

The members of the Hilton Head (SC) Chapter of The Links, Incorporated were honored to be represented at the 45th National Assembly held in Detroit, Michigan. This historic gathering brought together Link sisters from across the nation for fellowship, organizational business, leadership development, and a renewed commitment to transformational service.

Throughout the Assembly, we were inspired by an extraordinary group of featured speakers and special guests, including Vice President Kamala Harris, Congresswoman Joyce Beatty, Rev. Dr. Howard-John Wesley, Bishop Vashti Murphy McKenzie, Rev. Dr. Otis Moss III, Rev. Dr. Marcus Cosby, Iyanla Vanzant, and many others whose messages challenged, encouraged, and uplifted us.

We also celebrated community leaders and changemakers whose work has made a powerful impact across our communities and the Five Facets. Among those recognized were Angela Bassett, along with members and spouses who have served as past and present HBCU presidents, including Dr. Glenda Glover, Dr. Roslyn Clark Artis, Dr. Henry Ponder, and Dr. Melvin Johnson.

The 45th National Assembly was filled with countless memorable moments, meaningful reflections, and notable leaders whose names and influence are too numerous to fully capture. We returned home inspired by the spirit of friendship, the strength of service, and the future of our beloved organization.

The members of the Hilton Head (SC) Chapter proudly congratulate our newly elected national leadership and look forward to working under the visionary leadership of Dr. Shauna Tucker Sims, National President, and her organizational theme, “Where Friendship and Service Connect.” We remain committed to linking vision to action and service to transformational impact in the Lowcountry and beyond.

Highlighting the Gullah Culture

Film Executive Producer Omolola “Lola” Campbell Documents the Gullah Culture

Omolola “Lola” Campbell, member of the Hilton Head (SC) Chapter, was born and raised on Hilton Head and is a member of one of the island’s oldest native families. Her great-grandfather, Reverend Solomon Campbell, grandson of an enslaved man living on Hilton Head at the time the Union captured the island in 1861, is believed to be the first Gullah teacher born and raised on the island. Growing up in the Lowcountry, she developed a deep respect for the stories of her elders and has dedicated her work to preserving and elevating Gullah culture.

The Spirit We Move With, a new documentary, for which our own Link Lola Campbell is the executive producer, developed by the local Gullah community in partnership with the Hilton Head Island–Bluffton Chamber of Commerce, premiered on Thursday, February 12, at Historic Mitchelville Freedom Park, located on Hilton Head Island.

The event celebrated the film’s powerful exploration of heritage, identity, and cultural preservation on Hilton Head. The screening was followed by a talkback with Gullah cast members of the documentary, Link Lola, and the director and noted documentarian Andrew Maguire. 

In Lola’s own words, “The documentary means a great deal to the Gullah community. It shares our history, but it also shows that Gullah culture is alive, evolving, and deeply rooted in the community. We wanted people to see not just where we’ve come from, but where we are now and where we’re going. This true collaboration with the local chamber was built on trust and a shared commitment to telling the Gullah story with integrity."

The film has already earned recognition on the national and international film circuit, with official selections to: Virginia Black Film Festival: February 19–22, 2026 | Williamsburg, Virginia; The Rapport Black Film Festival: March 27–29, 2026 | Ritzy Cinema, London; and 2026 Black History Film Festival: Atlanta, DC, and Oakland.
