CHAUTAUQUA-BY-THE-SEA
2009 Season Review in Pictures
Summer 2010 - 130th Season
The seaside Chautauqua community of Ocean Park, ME has 130 years of history
and heritage as a summer assembly in the Chautauqua tradition.
Founded
in 1881, Ocean Park is
a retreat to the quiet of the pines and the beach offering lectures,
workshops, family programs, and opportunities for spiritual growth and
renewal in a non-denominational, inter-faith setting. The Temple Garden and pergola can provide you with a time for quiet reflection or
meditation and at the end of your stay, you will go home feeling just a bit
more content and looking forward to your next Ocean Park encounter.
Preview of 2010 Season: There are programs for kids, families, and individuals, whether you want to play tennis, swim in the ocean, visit the Memorial Library, attend Sunday morning services, or enjoy a concert in the historic Temple. In addition, a stop by
the local gift shop, the grocery store, and the variety store will provide you
with some pleasant purchasing opportunities. Everyone who comes to Ocean
Park eventually winds up at the Soda Fountain, a wonderful old fashioned ice
cream parlor and the perfect place to complete a family activity or end an
evening walk around the Park.
Key Dates:
• Booklet will be mailed to Members May 7 and available in the OPA office after May 12th.
• The OPA Annual Meeting will be held this year on July 10 in Jordan Hall.
