As the Staff Assistant at Save the Harbor/Save the Bay I had the opportunity and privilege to take a leadership role by creating and monitoring the RSVP list. I was able to able to speak to and email individuals as well as organizations informing them about the Fall Cruise to Spectacle Island and encourage them to sign up for this wonderful opportunity. I was able to speak with many people, and it was exciting to match a name to face on Saturday.

Save the Harbor Staff was able to invite our friends and family on the cruise, so I asked my friend Meghan Stone to come with us on this adventure. When I am not an Administrative Assistant at the office, I spend most of my free time roller skating and playing roller derby with the Boston Derby Dames. Meghan and I are on the same home team, the Arkham Horrors. Since we weren't able to skate around the island, we decided to hike instead. We walked more than 4 miles trekking several different nature hikes that Spectacle Island offers. It was a beautiful Fall day, and we were able to admire the multicolored trees and the ocean in the background. The view of the Boston Harbor wasn't too bad either.

Although I've been to Spectacle Island before, this trip was special, because I had an integral role in the planning leading up to the Fall Cruise. I had a lot of small tasks to do on Saturday like greet guests, set-up our banners, and distribute marbles, but I felt relief as we sailed towards out into the Boston Harbor towards Spectacle Island. The cruise was a reward for all the hard work our staff put into organizing it, and it couldn't have been successful without Save the Harbor's friends, family, and partners. I can hardly wait until our next adventure.
Stay Sandy,
