MICHAUN COLLINS

As told to FRAN WORRALL

I live in Brunswick, so it’s easy to get to Jekyll. Sometimes I go with my family; but mostly I go with my friends and spend the day. One of my favorite attractions is Summer Waves [Water Park]. They have some incredible water slides and a great wave pool. We’ll spend most of the day there and then get frozen yogurt at Fuse. The thing I like most about Jekyll is that no matter where you go on the island, everyone is friendly. When you’re there, it feels like you’re part of one big family.”

Collins, a high school senior, has been coming to Jekyll since he was 5 years old. During the summer of 2021, he served as a marketing intern with the Jekyll Island Authority. His internship was especially meaningful because of his longtime connection to the island. He plans to study business in college.
