Ned’s Point Birthday276 viewsThis past Saturday, Ev had her eighth birthday party at Ned’s Point lighthouse. The day was filled with kite flying and drinking tea with the added bonus of lighthouse tours. Joe Dawiki with the Coast Guard Auxiliary helped us arrange a tour. The kids had a blast and so did the parents. Ned’s Point Light needs restoration. I recommend your next party to be held there to shine light on the need and spread awareness. Donations are appreciated to preserve the history of Mattapoisett. Photo by Rebecca Harris
