It's National Heritage Week and it is important to acknowledge and celebrate our coastal heritage.

Coastal heritage includes both man-made and natural sites as well as local traditions, fishing methods, and folklore passed down through generations.

Here's hoping that will become part of the fabric of our culture to be passed down through generations as a way of protecting places that we love.
