Next week, the gate to Hacker's Hill in Casco will be open after dark so the public can view the "Honor Summit" light display on Mount Washington. From September 9 – 12, 2026, starting at 8 p.m. each day, two powerful beams of light will shine from the summit of Mount Washington to commemorate the 25th anniversary of September 11. Depending on conditions, the beams of light may be visible up to 135 miles away.

The gate allowing vehicle access to Hacker's Hill will remain open each night from 9/9 to 9/12. Please respect the land and fellow users.

There’s a new book on our StoryWalk trail next to Sebago Elementary School, and it’s ready to be explored! 🌳

🎒 With school back in session, it’s the perfect little stop after dropping the kids off, while you’re waiting for pickup, or anytime you happen to be nearby. And if you’re headed to the Sebago Community Market, why not take a stroll through the StoryWalk before or after you shop? 🍪

The trail is a beautiful little spot to slow down, get some fresh air, and enjoy a story together. 🐦

⚠️ PLEASE NOTE: When school is in session, please park along the road rather than on school grounds. Thank you for helping us keep the school area safe and accessible! 🌞

Thank you Loon Echo Land Trust and Sebago Department of Recreation.

Great local opportunity to purchase native plants for your yard and garden!
