Maine Veterans In Need (opens the original)
Read excerpt
I’m glad you found this article now that it is appearing under the Maine Veterans in Need (MVN) logo. This week I want to address the rising cost of utilities.

Labor Day has arrived! Here in the Boothbay region, Labor Day means a lot of different things. For many, it is the last big weekend of summer. The restaurants are busy, the harbor is full, the tour boats are still carrying visitors, and our working waterfront is going about its business. But Labor Day is also a good time to stop and think about the people who make this community work.
