Here are the top stories in Myrtle Beach today:

1. The Semi-Annual Blue Crab Feast with 45th Ave Deli and Crab House is happening this weekend on June 3, from 5 to 8 p.m. at 4515 Highway 17 South, North Myrtle Beach. Tickets include steamed blue crabs, peel and eat shrimp, corn on the cob, sausage and potatoes, hamburgers, hotdogs, coleslaw, macaroni salad, and soda and tea. There is an extra cost for beer and wine bar tickets. Sales are per person and all-you-can-eat items are dine-in only, no crabby bags. Hope to see you there! (WMBF)
2. The message from North Myrtle Beach police is to keep your golf carts secured. Reportedly, there has been a rise in golf cart thefts in the area. Golf cart owners are being advised to take a recent photo of their cart, write down the VIN number and use some kind of antitheft device to help combat the thefts and keep property safe. (WMBF)
3. Myrtle Beach has an abundance of summer fun activities. What are your favorites? Here is a summer fun guide compiled by Grand Strand Magazine. Try something new and have fun! See you out there! (Grand Strand Magazine)
4. A hidden gem of the Grand Strand, Brookgreen Gardens in Murrells Inlet, has acres of beautifully landscaped sculpture gardens and is listed on the National Registry of Historic Places. It is also home to the Lowcountry Zoo and a great place to visit and enjoy. Hope to see you there this summer for some of their great events. (Grand Strand Magazine)
