We would like to recognize Officer Gabrielle Mathieu for her hard work, and 14th year, volunteering at Camp POSTCARD. For those who are not aware, Camp POSTCARD is a free week-long camp for 5th and 6th graders from across Maine. Maine's first responders are the volunteer counselors who work with attendees to build positive relationships, teach leadership skills, and have a little fun as well. Thank you to all of the first responders, and the Maine Sheriffs Association, for making this happen.

As we approach Memorial Day weekend we would like to remind everyone that there will be a parade on Monday to remember and honor the men and women who lost their lives fighting on behalf of our country. This will cause the closure of Monument Place, at approximately 07:00am, as those involved in the parade form up. Main Street will then be shut down to regular traffic shortly after 08:00am and there will be a ceremony in front of Town Hall at 08:30. The parade will then make its’ way towards the Androscoggin River and Brunswick. We hope you all enjoy your weekend. Thank you.
