We are proud to introduce a new section dedicated to Stories from Shoalers.

The initial collection includes pieces by Edie and Steve Whitney, Alec Lowry, Joe Pescatello, Joan M. Strickland Johnson, C.E.V. Jenkins, and Lois Kenick. They span many years of Star Island’s history that include memories of a first week on Star Island in 1950, a first visit in September 2001, ending with the summer of 2009.

We welcome submissions –send your story about Star Island to Priscilla Hodgkins, email hidden; JavaScript is required.
