**PLEASE NOTE THIS IS A VIRTUAL PROGRAM THAT WILL TAKE PLACE VIA ZOOM. Registrants will receive a link to access the Zoom Webinar via email.** You know we love our Lighthouse talks and we're really excited about this one! Boston Light – the first established Light Station in colonial America – began lighting the way for safe navigation into the fledging maritime port of Boston in 1716. The Fresnel Lens in the lantern room and fog signal apparatus situated on Little Brewster Island at the entrance to Boston Harbor continues as an active Coast Guard maintained aid-to-navigation, today. However, its notoriety in the maritime community as the “the last manned Coast Guard Light Station” in the country has come to closure with the retirement of Sally Snowman, its 70th keeper. A power-point presentation provide photos of Boston Light’s 307 years of history and few photo anecdotes of Sally’s experiences as a 21st Century Keeper. We are also thrilled to welcome Jeremy D'Entremont to the conversation (check out some of his past events with us on our YouTube Channel)! He is one of our favorite speakers on lighthouses and is great friends with Sally and Jay. Register directly on Zoom HERE. RECORDING NOTE: This program will be recorded. All registrants will receive the recording via email within 48 hours of the program. Sally Snowman, Ph.D., Keeper of Boston Light 2003-2023, is an educator, author, and a USCG Boston Light historian. Husband, Jay Thomson and Sally have co-authored two books: “Boston Light - A historical perspective” (1999) and “Boston Light - Arcadia Images of America” (2016); and “Sammy the Boston Lighthouse Dog” written for children by Sally (2005). Please register for this event and you'll receive the link in the confirmation and reminder emails - make sure to check your spam folder for them, the email will be coming from Zoom. This program is sponsored by the Friends of the Ashland Public Library collaborating with a multitude of MA Libraries to bring this program to our communities. https://northbridgemass.assabetinteractive.com/calendar/virtual/
