In this week's edition of "This Week in Bar Harbor" we get ready for the 4th of July! The Bar Harbor Chamber of Commerce's Jennifer Wright, the Events Coordinator, and WDEA's Chris Popper, explore all the things that make Bar Harbor great during the 4th of July!

Don't believe that it's the best place to celebrate the 4th? The Today Show recognized Bar Harbor as  the number 1  top Fourth of July celebration in America , and Bar Harbor has been recognized by National Geographic as one of the top ten in the U.S. as well! I've been pretty lucky, in that for the last 4 years, I have been broadcasting from the Bar Harbor Pier as part of the Harbor Place Concert Series, and this year will be no different, as I'll be on I-95, 95.7 WWMJ.

There's so much to do, and you can read all about it on the Bar Harbor of Commerce's website! This year's theme is The Way Life Should Be - Hometown Pride!

In the video, we also talked about the Island Explorer, the most economical, and eco-friendly way to get around. You can read more about the Island Explorer HERE.

I hope to see you in Bar Harbor on the 4th!
