This time of year, one needs only to open the front door (or the front page of the Bar Harbor Times) to be reminded of all the wonderful events that await both tourists and locals. Memorial Day weekend marked the start of the summer season on Mount Desert Island and Acadia National Park, our beautiful bays, and lovely seaside towns are offering some great ways to appreciate all coastal Maine has to offer.
Some Events of Note…
National Trails Day is Saturday, June 7! Head out to Acadia National Park to celebrate the 40th anniversary of this event. Enjoy a guided hike up Beech Mountain and the rare opportunity to ascend the fire tower, which will be open until 3 p.m.
You may notice, as you take in the beauty of Frenchman's Bay, a striking, red sailed, four-masted schooner. That can only mean one thing -- the Margaret Todd is back! The Margaret Todd sails 3 times daily from the Bar Harbor Inn Pier and is as pleasant to sail as she is to watch.
On June 15, the Abbe Museum's exhibit "Journeys West: The David and Peggy Rockefeller American Indian Art Collection" will come to a close. The Abbe Museum is located in downtown Bar Harbor and is open from 10:00 am - 6:00 pm. Admission is $6 per person and is a great way to spend a rainy afternoon in town.
