Employees with Coastal Expeditions, a local boat and kayak tour company on St. Helena Island, got an unusual call from a neighbor passing through the area Sunday morning.
As it turns out, a young deer was stuck in a marsh near the store with the tide coming in. After spotting the deer in danger, the neighbor called the store’s general manager, Thorton Lacy, who looped in his employee, Education Coordinator Jessica Wiggins. It was shortly after 8 a.m., and the store has just opened.
“Our day had just shortly started,” Wiggins told The Packet. “He was like, ‘You want to help me get a deer out of the marsh?’”…
