Toad Hall Estate – Our Cover Feature Property for April 2015 – Presented by BVI Sotheby’s International Realty
FROM THE EDITOR
Riding the penultimate month of the traditional time allotted for high season, there are many events occurring across the island, but within the aLG team, we have had a little celebration of our own…
We warmly welcomed our newest recruit on the ‘aLG ship,’ Lauren Charley.
Lauren joins the team with innovative ideas and her unique approach to creative writing, after recently graduating with an Honours B.A. in Media Studies from the University of Western Ontario in Canada. She has worked as a feature magazine writer, where many of her stories pertained to events, people, activities, and places in popular tourist destinations. Lauren’s love for tropical weather, aesthetically pleasing beaches, and welcoming Caribbean hospitality, prompted her to start this endeavour as a full time writer in the British Virgin Islands, and we are happy to have her on board.

We talk to Spring Regatta Director Judy Petz about what to expect over the Spring Regatta Sailing Festival that takes place at the beginning of this month (started March 30); and VISAR makes a call-out to crewed yacht charter boats about their $1 per person program – an initiative that has created the foundation of the organisation’s funding.
House provides the second half of their coastal chic range—bringing the beach into the home. And VP Bank, an organisation well-known for its philanthropy, accepted our invitation to talk more about the company and their 20-year celebration.
All-in-all, an extremely busy month here, but an enjoyable one all the same. Whether resident or visitor, we hope you relish what April in the BVI has to offer.
