Buckets on the Table: Camden Area Food Pantry
Speaker: Kevin Bedford, Owls Head Transportation – Ignite your Imagination
Kevin worked for ME photographic workshop, Lord Camden Inn before arriving at Owls Head. The museum began in the early 70’s, by Tom Watson Jr’s brain child, a committed pilot. ‘Wouldn’t it be nice to have some old airplanes flying around Owls Head’ was the original vision! The museum contains pre- 1940 aircraft. The smell of castor oil brings on all the memories, a lubricant of the plane engines. There are 10-12 major summer events each season on Saturday and Sundays with 40,000 visitors a year. The museum offers guided tours, vintage vehicle rides and plane rides. They are working diligently to expand programs to include all ages. Over 200 volunteers keep the museum running. The museum offers dances, craft beer tastings and annual NE auto auction, the largest fund raiser.
