New for 2023, Kennebunk Land Trust will host a limited-ticket, early-entry Super Supporter Hour from 5 until 6 p.m. The early-admittance portion of the event will include tunes by local musician Beau Dalleo, as well as exclusive special appetizers and a Super Supporter commemorative glass.

The general reception will take place from 6:00 to 8 p.m. with a cocktail bar, appetizers, and lawn games along with special remarks about new initiatives to build trails on Kennebunk Land Trust properties from Executive Director Sandy Gilbreath.

Lori Beath, chair of the Kennebunk Land Trust Board of Directors, shared her excitement in the announcement in a June 12 email: “The Colony Hotel is such a fantastic venue to bring everyone together for a fun night in the name of land conservation and preservation. The board of directors, staff and dedicated volunteers have worked so hard this year, we are all very excited to celebrate these accomplishments with you and share where we are going next.”

The organization invites patrons to “raise a glass for conservation and come together on the Colony Hotel’s picturesque patio to support the Kennebunk Land Trust’s essential projects and programs. Attendance to the event directly contributes to the preservation of our beloved local landscapes and wildlife habitats.”
