Kay Grinnell: President of the Hilton Head Audubon Society
Kay is a retired business consultant with more than 20 years of advising top executives on matters of strategy and operations as a Deloitte Consulting Partner.
When she retired in 2002, Kay discovered the concept of “free time” and began to focus hers on education and advocacy for birds and nature.
Kay is the past board chair and current treasurer for The Nature Conservancy’s South Carolina chapter and is the current President of Hilton Head Audubon.
She and her husband Phil enjoy exploring and birdwatching in natural areas around the world, but especially in the South Carolina Lowcountry.
Says Kay, “Birding offers an endless opportunity for learning and is a great way of engaging with people at home and around the world through a common interest.”
Hilton Head Audubon celebrates the important role our Island and surrounding Lowcountry play in the everyday lives of our resident birds and in the journey of migratory birds. We are a bird-friendly conservation-minded community where people and nature thrive together.
Hilton Head Audubon works to promote the awareness and appreciation of nature, preserve and protect wildlife and natural ecosystems, and to encourage responsible environmental stewardship. 4
Established in 1974, we have a membership base of about 300 people and are a leading voice of conservation on Hilton Head Island and Beaufort County, South Carolina.
The Hilton Head Audubon Society is a nonprofit 501(c)3 corporation. Membership and gifts are tax-deductible to the full extent of the law.
Hilton Head Audubon is an all-volunteer organization, served by volunteer officers, board members-at-large, committee chairs and members.
