The First Family returns to the Vineyard today. Please send your photos, sightings and stories about the presidential visit to news@mvgazette.com and we’ll include them in our Summer White House coverage.
President Obama, the First Lady and their two daughters are scheduled to arrive Thursday afternoon. They will be staying at Blue Heron Farm in Chilmark.
This article appears in August 16, 2011.
While the Obama visit is good for island businesses, I find it interesting that no one reports on the millions of taxpayer dollars spent so they can go on vacation. What about Camp David? It is already secure and setup for the President.
Saw Navy One, Obama’s Vineyard boat!!
