SUMMARY:SHIPWRECK! Horseneck Point Lifesaving Station & South Coast Rescuers
DESCRIPTION:Spinner Publications and Gay Gillespie will hold a talk and book signing on Saturday\, Dec. 6\, at 1 p.m. at the Acushnet Public Library. The program features “Shipwreck! Horseneck Point Lifesaving Station and South Coast Rescuers.” The book examines the history of local lifesavers who braved rough waters and worked to rescue stranded sailors. \nResearch for the project began with Gillespie’s husband\, Chip\, and family friend Howie Gifford. Both helped lead the restoration of Horseneck Point Station No. 69. Gillespie later gathered their work and approached Spinner Publications. She then invited Chip McGrath to write the book. \nThe event is free and open to the public. \nSupport for “Shipwreck!” came from the Westport Cultural Council Community Grants\, the Helen E. Ellis Charitable Trust\, Bank of America\, the Westport Community Gift Fund\, and the Buzzards Bay Coalition.
