Today's Poll

Poll Description

Sponsored by: Kennebunk Savings Bank

With the official end of summer this past weekend, we're taking a look back at how the season unfolded.

Back in early August, we asked how the summer tourism season was going — and at the time, the majority of respondents told us it could be better. And remember, the season started very rainy and ended amid a drought.

Now that the season has wrapped up, we're checking in again to see how things ended. Did things improve? Did tourism pick up later in the summer, or did the season fall short of expectations?
