My favorite part about the celebration was seeing parts of my family that I normally don’t get to see and being in such an amazing place all together. I very much appreciate the family tradition of going to Northeast Harbor which my ancestors have been a part of since 1902. I know how lucky I am for this experience and I am very grateful for it.
