What happened throughout the morning wasn't just a ceremony. It became a collective, deeply emotional experience that left every person in attendance completely blown away...

We all gathered ’round for the official ribbon cutting of the Grafton Ferry, and let me tell you... this isn't just a seasonal "maybe it’s running" situation anymore. We are officially moving to a 7-day-a-week, year-round operation.

The future of the Grafton Ferry took center stage at City Hall Thursday night as residents and officials gathered for a public hearing to review a proposed 20-year operations agreement. The deal, which could see the City of Grafton take ownership of the vessel, aims to transition the ferry from a seasonal weekend attraction to a year-round, seven-day-a-week regional transit link.
