Haig Point was the first golf course and golf course community featured in the first publication of Links Magazine (then titled Southern Links), the March/April 1988 issue. Links also featured the Palm Beach Polo Golf and Country Club and an interview with Gary Player in this first issue. Celebrating its twentieth anniversary, Links featured Haig Point again in its July/August 2008 publication. The eighth hole "Calibogue" green of Haig Point's Signature Course was featured on the cover of the July/August 2008 issue.
Pat Conroy's book, The Water is Wide, is a recounting of the year (1969) he spent as a teacher on Daufuskie Island teaching at the Mary Field School. With generous contributions from Haig Point members, other Daufuskie residents and various Lowcountry organizations, the school has been preserved as a community center.

Famous quotes related to popular culture:
“The lowest form of popular culture—lack of information, misinformation, disinformation, and a contempt for the truth or the reality of most people’s lives—has overrun real journalism. Today, ordinary Americans are being stuffed with garbage.”
—Carl Bernstein (b. 1944)
