There Goes thge Herring Run

     For those of you not familiar with Pembroke tradition, in the spring time pretty much the entire community comes out to the Herring Run, which is considered a Massachusetts state landmark.  This year the annual fish fry was being held on May 5th, and during this time basically the whole community gets together for picnicking, family fun, and community bonding.  This has been a tradition for my family ever since I was a little girl.  It is far more exciting to attend an event that you are so use to attending in crown and sash and allowing people to understand that you are more than the Nicole they know, you are a person with a mission with a platform.  I might have got a little extra sun that day, but it was well worth the good fish, the fun time, and the unforgettable memories.

Until next time, Advocate, Educate, and Empower.
