Our third annual Cinco de Maxo is accompanied by The Friends of Long Point showcasing stories of yesteryear! Today we are joined by local historians, Vince & Lore DiSalvo, who graciously set up an expansive historical display in our event room. Vince just so happens to be celebrating his 70th birthday and Lore surprised him with a stunning cake recreation of the McPherson Steamer, later named The Starrucca, which ran excursions around Conesus Lake from 1883 to 1902.
