Immerse yourself in a 45-minute journey that will take you back in time to explore the lives of the indigenous people who called Magnolia home before European contact. The engaging slide lecture will answer these questions:
· Who were they? Uncover the identities and histories of the indigenous communities that thrived in Magnolia and the surrounding area.
· Where did they come from, and when? Trace their ancestral roots and understand the timeline of their presence in the region.
· How did they live? Discover their ingenious ways of utilizing the land, sea, and natural resources to sustain their unique culture and lifeways.
· What happened to them? Explore the reasons behind their displacement and learn about their enduring legacy.
Mary Ellen Lepionka, a renowned scholar and passionate storyteller, brings the past to life in this fascinating presentation.

Check out the colorful school of fish that swam onto Lexington Ave and landed on our corner sign! Thank you to local Magnolia resident Layce Alves (Here Fishy Fishy) for brightening up the sign.

Multi colored sunset

The sunsets have been outstanding the last few evenings.  Shore Road has a group called the sunset club and we have a wonderful time talking and enjoying mother nature.  Even Maggie the little dog is waiting for the sun to set.

Sundogs are colored spots of light that develop due to the refraction of light through ice crystals. They are located approximately 22 degrees either left, right, or both, from the sun, depending on where the ice crystals are present.
