Retirement village resident constructs trail around community
BAR HARBOR, Maine (WABI) – The Birch Bay Retirement Village community can enjoy all of the fall foliage with their own personal piece of Acadia, all thanks to one resident.
Bob Hartley is an 88-year-old resident at the Village and led the charge on the trail’s construction last year.
I asked him when he first got the idea for the trail, to which he replied, “When I first got here!”
“We live adjacent to Acadia National Park, and it couldn’t be more appropriate,” comments Hartley.
