Happy New Year!

We are excited to ring in the New Year with friends and guests this weekend! Promises to be an exciting but cold holiday weekend....Both the inn and One Dock are happily filled and looking forward to visiting with lots of familiar faces. However once the New Year Celebration is over we are starting an aggressive round of renovations and installing a new property management system....during January and February so it should be a busy and productive time for all!!

Happy New Year to All! Best Wishes for a Terrific 2010

One Dock to Support Local Non Profits

One Dock at the Kennebunkport Inn is pleased to announce “Worthy Wednesdays,” an opportunity for diners to enjoy dinner at One Dock while helping benefit non profit organizations in York County. Each Wednesday beginning January 20th, One Dock will partner with a local non profit group and donate 15% of the evening’s revenues to that group.It’s a great opportunity for people to support local non profits and enjoy a delicious dinner at One Dock.

We are so pleased by the response of the area’s non profits when we reached out to partner with them. We feel it's a great opportunity to help a lot of worthy organizations, and a way for us to give back throughout the first quarter of 2010. We hope that this becomes an annual program for us. The response has been terrific so far and our partners are very excited. It’s a great roster of organizations we’ve been pleased to support throughout the years, and it’s an easy way for people to show their support because essentially they’ll just be paying for their meals.

Partners for Worthy Wednesdays:
January 20 Graves Library-Kennebunkport
January 27 Kennebunkport Historical Society
February 3 Kennebunk Land Trust
February 10 Caring Unlimited
February 17 Habitat for Humanity
March 3 Animal Welfare Society
March 10 Senior Center of Lower Village
March 17 Brick Store Museum
March 24 Community Harvest

Our "chestnut boys" roasted chestnuts all weekend, the patio tent was filled with visitors enjoying spiced cider and other signature concoctions AND the music of Bill Cameron, while inside the our guests were treated to Flash and Diane throughout the weekend. It's such fun to welcome back our guests year after year!! Looking forward to Prelude 2010!!! We have plenty of rooms for the Second Weekend!
