“Going to Brenton Point on Father’s Day has been a tradition in my
family for about five years now,” said Buetow. Adding, “All of my
children and grandchildren head to Brenton Point with our kites — there
are about 15 of us —and we spend the day together.”
“Rhode Island has many beautiful places, like Brenton Point in
Newport, for families to create life-long memories,” stated Joseph J.
MarcAurele, Washington Trust Chairman, President and CEO. “This
photo captures both the beauty of Rhode Island and the
spirit of family fun.”
