“All Souls’ Walk” Book Released KENNEBUNK Ahead of the Brick Store Museum’s “All Souls’ Walk” program on Saturday, October 28, the Museum has announced the publication of a new book covering the history of the beloved town event and the stories told within Hope Cemetery during the tour. It will officially be on sale on All Souls’ Day, Thursday, November 2, but is now available for pre-order. T he long-r u n n i ng A l l Souls’ Walk is celebrating its 20th anniversary this year. The walking tour takes participants through Kennebunk’s Hope Cemetery, and introduces them to re-enactors who tell the sto-
ries of those who are buried there. Not too spooky, the walk is a perfect Halloween event for
the whole family. With stories of love, life and loss, the tour coves about a one-mile loop through the graveyard and takes about 90 minutes. The program runs even in drizzly weather, with a rain date held for Sunday, October 29 if the weather is too stormy. The All Souls’ Walk book is $24.95, with proceeds to be evenly split between the Brick Store Museum and Hope Cemetery. Tickets for the Walk are $15 per person, free for children under 12, and must be purchased in advance. For more information on the tour and the book, visit www.brickstoremuseum.org.
Staches to Lashes Benefit OGUNQUIT “Staches to Lashes,” an annual benefit for The Children’s Inn at The National Institutes of Health (NIH) in Bethesda, MD, is scheduled to be held on Thursday, November 2 at The Cliff House in Cape Neddick. The Cliff House has once again generously donated their beautiful ballroom for the evening and is the Presenting Partner for the fundraiser. The ‘Stashes to Lashes organizers hope to have another record year raising money for The Children’s Inn at The National Institute of Health (NIH). The growth of the event has made ‘Stashes to Lashes one of
Southern Maine’s most successful non profit events, with fundraising totaling over $500,000 over the years (2017, 2018, 2019 and 2022). When the Ogunquit community comes together for a cause, it makes a tremendous impact. The Children’s Inn is a nonprofit that provides residential services and a wide range of programs to children, teens, and young adults with rare and serious diseases. Since opening in 1990, nearly 13,500 families from across the world, and many from New England, have considered The Inn their home. As a partner in discovery and care with the NIH, The Inn strives for the day when no family endures, the heartbreak of a seriously ill child. Scott Vogel, host of the event and owner of The Front Porch and Crew Ogunquit, has been a patient at the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases at the National Institutes of Health (NIH) since he was an infant. Diagnosed with a rare immune deficiency at six months old, Scott underwent significant care over two decades, including two stem cell transplants. Scott and his family have spent over 250 nights at The Inn, where he now sits on their board of directors since being cured in 2014. “The Inn was truly a place like home for my family and I
during the toughest of times,” Vogel has said. “Thanks to the care and support The Inn provides in conjunction with research at the NIH, I can now say I have been cured. This event and my work on the board is to make sure we continue to support children with life threatening illness, their families, and the incredible work of the Children’s lnn as they support advancement in medicine at The National Institutes of Health.” The Front Porch, Crew
