Kenny Wing: A REAL Local sharing the history of our backyard..
The Wing family lived with a view of what we call the backside of Bigelow, for four generations before the Flagstaff Village was flooded & the family’s home was forever gone. Kenny was the 5th generation, & first to be born & raised on the shores of what became Maine’s 4th largest lake, where he’s spent his whole life (when not riding his motorcycle across the country).
