SOUTHWEST HARBOR — The Southwest Harbor Historical Society will meet at 4 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 22, hosting several presenters who will speak about living around the Addison Packing Co. and what boats were part of their operation.
Peter Colson will talk about the factory and housing; Gregory Dow will talk about being aboard one of the boats and working beside his father, Carlton Dow; and Bert Willey will talk about growing up visiting his grandmother, who lived next to the factory.
Several other individuals who are connected to the factory and the boats hauling fish to them are being asked to participate. Multiple people have donated photos for the event, which will be on display.
The presentation takes place at the society’s museum at Manset Meetinghouse, 192 Seawall Road.
