NADA BARRY AWARDED COMMUNITY SERVICE AWARD
Nada Barry in the Wharf Shop, Photo Credit: Christine Sampsoon
We are delighted to report that Nada Barry, longtime owner of the Wharf Shop and passionate supporter of children in Sag Harbor, received our annual Sag Harbor Partnership Community Service Award on Sunday, October 21st, 6pm,
in Baron's Cove's beautiful Map Room. We thank Baron's Cove for their sponsorship of this event.
This private event honored a woman who has striven to make activities and enrichment for both children and Sag Harbor's Main Street a central focus of her life, participating in a myriad of community meetings and activities like the Library Board and the Sag Harbor Schools' Key Communicators Meetings. In an excellent Sag Harbor Express article by Christine Sampson on Ms. Barry, Nick Gazzolo, Sag Harbor Partnership's President, was quoted as saying, "She speaks to us and is sort of like the conscience of Sag Harbor. She is there to challenge us, to compliment us, remind us of how things used to be done where we might have forgotten or didn’t know. She is the keeper of so much Sag Harbor history and tradition.”
Besides the Wharf Shop, Nada helped start the Hayground School, the Sag Harbor Chamber of Commerce, and the Sag Harbor Youth Committee, which led to sagharborkids.org, which is still going strong, as is she!
