To the Editor:

The number of people on LBI who remember the Lucy Evelyn (1949-1972) is shrinking year by year. The Lucy was a three-masted schooner that was beached at the site of the present Bay Village and used as a gift shop by the Ewers until she was lost in a fire.

Jeanette Lloyd and I are finishing a new PowerPoint presentation on the Lucy Evelyn, scheduled for Monday, Aug. 15 at 7:30 p.m. at the LBI Museum.
