Ocean Point Column
June 18,2015
By Maryellen Bertrand
There are many surprises in store for those of you who have
not yet had the opportunity to return to Ocean Point. There have been several
structural changes to homes, cottages and land. The cell tower has been erected
between Van Horn Rd. and Middle Rd. and the old Akroyd cottage has been torn
down and a new structure will take its place.
Graduations continue to be a frequent occurrence this month,
congratulations to the following Ocean Pointers:
Elizabeth Erskine graduated from Windham High School on June
7th and will pursue a degree in Secondary Education this fall at the
University of Maine at Farmington. Elizabeth’s goal is to become a History teacher.
Elizabeth is the daughter of Margaret (Merton) and Allen Erskine.
Caroline Kern recently graduated from Bates College where
she was awarded a Bachelor of Arts Degree in Psychology. Caroline intends to
pursue a postgraduate degree in a related field. Caroline is the daughter of
Sue and Dave Kern.
Connie Saindon has been invited to participate in the Books
in Boothbay event on Saturday July 11 at the Railway Museum. As you may recall
Connie’s book, Murder Survivor’s Handbook Real-Life Stories, Tips and Resources
was published last year and has received numerous awards and recognitions.
