Summer Solstice Walking Tour

Once again, Bayport-Blue Point Heritage Association’s Frank Giebfried will be your guide for this evening stroll that marks the beginning of the summer season.

Once again, Bayport-Blue Point Heritage Association’s Frank Giebfried will be your guide for this evening stroll that marks the beginning of the summer season. This year’s tour finds us back in Bayport, as we stroll up Bayport Avenue from Middle Road to Railroad Avenue. Along the way, we’ll discuss and explore the interesting history of the historic homes and lives of the families who once occupied this beautiful part of our hamlet. The tour will include the homes of local business owner James Snedecor, soft drink bottler CH Hawkins, ice box manufacturer John McKee, hotel owner Charles Frieman, and many others. We’ll also learn about our first railroad station and the travels of our first post office. Our tour will end at the former Frieman Hotel, now the People’s Pub, which has been serving guests for over 150 years. We hope to see you for this local summer tradition that our friend Gene Horton began years ago! Meet at the public parking lot on the corner of Middle Road and Howells Court in Bayport, across the street from the veterinarian’s office. Registration required.
