Well not really?..... we hope!
Stephen DeStefano to visit Black Point Inn this Monday when he will speak at the Scarborough Public Library in a talk hosted by the Scarborough Land Conservation Trust at 6:30 pm.
The Migis Hotel Group Chefs spent the day at the new state of the art Kinnealey Meats cutting facility in Boston. Special thanks to Jim Kinnealey for setting up the tour with members of his family at his fantastic family run company.
We all loaded into one car, drove down this morning and spent the better part of the day learning about how and where our very high quality meats come from. We all learned a tremendous amount about the meat that we serve and we were also able to spend some time on the floor with the folks that custom cut the meat that we serve at our restaurants and dining rooms.
Steak anyone?????

Young Mr. Kenny Lamm, reporting in about his time surf cast fishing around Black Point Inn, during the last week.
Mr Lamm, a semi-pro (Junior) surf cast fisherman, did not (of course) divulge his exact fishing spot… but was able to offer a few hints about what was biting and even a little about what bait set-up he was using this past week in the waters around our seaside resort on Prouts Neck.

We have driven past this sign for quite some time and so today we sent one of our photographers in to take a look. Could it be true? Lenny a 1700 pound moose made of chocolate? Just down Route 1 from us in Scarborough.
Take a look!

This article comes from Mariah Monks who has been working and learning with us here at BPI as part of her senior project at Waynflete School in Portland Maine. During her internship Mariah spent most of her time here at the inn with us, but she also spent some time at our sister property Migis Lodge. We asked Mariah if she would go behind the scenes at the inn to capture a wedding here from the vantage of the back of the house. Here is her take on how it all went……
“When I walked into the lobby at 9:00 am on Saturday I was skeptical as to how the staff could pull off a wonderful wedding given that it was pouring rain. I stood at the front desk dripping wet from the 50 yard dash to the Inn from my car. At the front desk Tracy the reservation manager was busily answering the phones and making last minute corrections to the wedding schedule. Meanwhile, chefs, waiters, florists and managers bustled around me trying to organize. I was immediately assigned to the dinning room where I worked to set tables and prep for the event. Despite the pouring rain the staff was working tirelessly to make the inn would be able to deliver a unforgettable experience for the wedding party. By some miracle, at 10:30, just as the bride arrived from the off-site ceremony the sun was beginning to peek through the clouds and warm the drenched landscape. While the bride went up stairs to freshen up and the first few guests started to arrive the staff made last minute checks through the inn to make sure everything was in order. The dinning room looked flawless with purple lilac centerpieces and sunlight streaming through the wide windows. The flower archway leading into the dinning room was the cherry on top of the cake. Guests gathered in the Sun room munching on hors d’oeuvres while the photographer snapped pictures of the flower girl playing in the front lawn. Outside guests were relaxing on the porch enjoying the spectacular view of Ferry Beach and chatting animatedly about the newly weds. I don’t know how it happened, but the chaos of earlier that morning had been replaced by a vibrant crowd basking in the enjoyment of the happy couple and the breathtaking scenery! The rest of the afternoon flowed along right on schedule right to the point that the bride and groom left the inn for their honeymoon amid a storm of bubbles and confetti!
Black Point Inn had done it again!
Our photographer caught Larry, our all-in-one guy, fixing a spot on the lawn by the road that the snow plow had hit this past winter. This all just in time for the Memorial Day Weekend! The weekend that kicks off the season all across Maine.
Now what was that about the Carry-all? Must send our photographer down there to see what Larry was talking about?
