Summer on Star Island is about half way over, and we have had a blast so far. Program guests and overnight retreaters have enjoyed their time on Star Island with a great variety of activities, workshops and other bouts of merriment. Starting with the Yearly Adults Conference hosting workshops on making bitters, bread, and fermentation to this week’s All Star 2 Family Conference focusing on the theme of human connections and the World Wide Web, Star Island is bustling with activity.
Other highlights of the summer include:
Birding expert Eric Masterson visited the Natural History Conference to talk about his new book and the importance of islands, including Star Island, for migratory birds.
Fourth of July celebrations during the All Star 1 Family Conference.
A host of experts presented on writing, photography, theater, generic levitra 20mg 10 pills music, dance, and visual art at the Star Arts Conference.

Clams and Muscles night has been a delight each week.
