Alice Collins, president of CENTURY 21 Collins Realty moved to St. George Island in July of 1973 with her husband, John Collins, and their eight-year-old son Johnny.

Prior to their move to the island, Alice worked in the commercial real estate field for nine years in Tallahassee, Florida. When Alice opened her real estate and rental business on the island in 1973, there were only 20 full-time residents on the island.

Alice was instrumental in the implementation of zoning districts in Franklin County. She has been active in the community, and has held many volunteer positions over the years. Alice is a past president of the St. George Island Civic Club, of which she has been a member since 1973. She also served on the Civic Club's board of directors for many years. She was a charter member of the SGI Volunteer Fire Department, and has been involved with the Volunteer Fire Department since 1974. Alice served on the board of directors and helped obtain monetary donations as well as donations of property, labor, and materials needed to construct the first fire department building on St. George Island. Alice won 1st Place in the first annual SGI Chili Cookoff in 1982. She has since helped expand the event to include an auction, and has served on the board of directors. 

Alice became a founding member of the Realtor Association of Franklin and Gulf Counties. Alice established the MLS, served on the association's board of directors and was named Realtor of the Year in 2005. Alice served as Association Manager of the Villas of St. George from 1984-2005, was elected first female president of the Apalachicola Bay Chamber of Commerce in 1986, and served on the Florida Seafood Festival Board. In 1994, Alice helped organize the publication of the first cookbook to benefit the St. George Island First Responders, and continues to serve on the founding committee, which released the most recent edition of the cookbook in November of 2013. Alice was appointed to serve on the first Franklin County Tourist Development Council in 2005 and served two four-year terms.
