In this issue

You know it's spring on the island when the houses for the miniature village in Stonington return. Isle au Haut holds its annual town meeting, with “new blood” taking the helm in some town offices. Our reporter was there. And discussions are underway about the possible future uses of the Odd Fellows Hall in Stonington once the town gets the title to the Main Street building.
