Happy Summer Solstice from Newport, Rhode Island!


Today is the Summer Solstice for the Northern Hemisphere. The actual moment of the solstice will occur at about 7:09 p.m. this evening, while the sun sits directly above the Pacific Ocean to the west of Hawaii. It's the longest day of the year (and the shortest night).  Today we will have over 15 hours of daylight!  
We are so excited for the summer of 2012, check out all these great events coming up in Newport this summer.
