A fun event is planned at Charming Charlie, located at the Marketplace at Augusta, this weekend.  You can find people from Conquer Chiari there raising awareness for chiari malformation.  A portion of the sales will go towards our fundraising goal.

Mike Poulin had two lives, kind of.  He was an incredible DJ for Townsquare Media.  But, he also loved his other job at Gallant Therapy Services.  Poulin's passing came to a shock to everyone in the community.  To keep his legacy going, GTS has created the Mike Poulin Scholarship Fund.

The 2nd Annual Conquer Chiari Walk Across America is already off to a GREAT start.  I have been working with local chiari patients and their families to raise awareness for this debilitating disease.  Chiari has no cure at this time.  My goal...to make it so I see one.  The only way to do that...is help raise funds for a cure!  Here's how you can help...

As we see the 4th of July behind us and begin to head into the heart of Summer here in Maine, fair season has begun! For the kids, it is the rides. For other's, it might be playing Bingo, running into old friends and enjoying the great fair food...

From pancake breakfasts, tug of war competitions, to watching the Windjammers arrive in the Harbor, to a great fireworks show and a huge street parade, there is something for young and old alike to enjoy during Windjammer Days in Boothbay Harbor...

This Father,s Day, take dad to the park! Think of all the fun you had at the park with your dad. Now, return the favor, and make some new memories with free admission this Sunday.

This really surprised me when I read it.  I didn't actually think there was a set 'price' on how much I should spend on a wedding gift...and my oh my, thank goodness I don't get invited to many weddings.  Because, if this is true...I'm not getting you anything!

Thomas College has a great event for juniors entering their senior year, who are interested in pursuing a career in education.  This all day event takes place right at the college and it helps if you register for the event.

Memorial Day is this Monday, May 29th.  This is the day we pay respect and remember those who died in active military service.  If you are looking for a parade to attend, here are some taking place in Central Maine...

I suppose it is called progress. But as someone who has been going to Boothbay Harbor since I was little, and also bartended at McSeagull's for 10 summers, it is sad to watch an old building go down. Romar Bowling Lanes, a candle pin alley on 19 Bridge Street in Boothbay Harbor and owned by Charlie Rowe and his family for 70 years, was demolished this week  ...

Our Food Truck Festival is scheduled for this Saturday, and we can't wait. The weather is looking outstanding! This weekend COULD be your summer preview, and we've brought the food and music for the occasion. While you might be on a diet, we think you can spurge a little for The Maine Tater. Life's about balance, right? Tater's Maine hand cut fries are worth whatever exercise you make up for later

Summertime is free movie time at Flagship Cinemas in Waterville.  Each film will play on Tuesday, Wednesday & Thursday at 10am and is open to large groups and general public.  The schedule is:

As a former Cony Ram (class of 1997), I was shocked to hear this 'rumor'.  I say 'rumor' because it hasn't been confirmed by the Chizzle Wizzle music director, Mr. Whitaker.  But, my source, I feel is pretty reliable.   But for now...we'll just call it a 'rumor'.  Chizzle Wizzle is a fabulous show of skits and music that is put on at Cony High School.  It goes back over a hundred and twenty five y

If you grew up in Augusta or Central Maine, there's a pretty good chance you know one or all of them. And when the conversation goes down about the greatest players ever to play for Cony, these three are always mentioned.

I was greatly disappointed,this morning when I learned that our Governor would not be inviting the New England Patriots to Maine following their epic win against the Atlanta Falcons.  According to Boston.com, LePage said there was “no chance” that he would invite them because the Patriots are “bad business” and lack “character and integrity.”

You'll see those Black Friday ads on television where the big sales start on Thanksgiving afternoon. That most likely won't be the case in Maine.
