Thanks to Maine Education Association for sharing these classroom resources to teach and honor Indigenous Peoples Day.

The State of Maine celebrates Indigenous Peoples’ Day each October. Maine is the ancestorial home of the Penobscot Nation, Passamaquoddy Tribe, Mi’kmaq Nation, Abenaki, and Houlton Band of Maliseet Indians—collectively known as the Wabanaki, “People of the Dawnland.” The Wabankai nations have endured as sovereign and self-determining people with distinct languages, cultures, governments, and economic structures.

We encourage educators to integrate Wabanaki studies into the existing curricula. Below we have compiled a list of teaching resources for you to help you honor the Wabanaki people that have called Maine home for thousands of years.

Whether you're participating in the Damariscotta Pumpkinfest & Regatta festivities or just driving through, be sure to plan ahead for temporary parking and traffic changes this holiday weekend! 🎃 🎃 🎃

To find alternative parking options, visit the Pumpkinfest website: https://www.mainepumpkinfest.com/parking-options

For many years now, there are some impacts to our routine parking spots during the Pumpkinfest weekend. This is just a friendly reminder of what will be impacted to help you plan accordingly.
Friday 10/9 thru Monday 10/12 - there will be barricades along Main St to ensure pedestrian safety.
Saturday 10/10 and Sunday 10/11 - a section of the back parking lot will be closed and reserved for emergency vehicles, key Pumpkinfest vehicles (think Regatta), and some of the food trucks.
Elm St will be for local traffic only during the weekend, please only access if you live or work on that street.
Theater St will be closed to traffic during this time as well.
Church St from the Biscay Rd light to Chapman St will be two-way traffic, no parking
Church St from Chapman St to Main St will be one-way headed towards the Baptist Church.

These changes are done to minimize safety risks and to help ensure smooth operations for residents, visitors, and emergency personnel.

Thank you for your patience and cooperation as we all look forward to a fun and safe weekend.

I'm happy to celebrate the Community Action Grants awarded in District 13! It's important our communities can handle severe weather, and these grants are investments that will strengthen the infrastructure in our area. By making these investments now, we will be able to better protect our communities and avoid paying higher costs later.

I am proud to join Representative Holly Stover, Representative Wayne Farrin, and nearly 70 state lawmakers from across Maine to urge MaineHealth to preserve labor and delivery services at the only birthing center in our district, MaineHealth Lincoln Hospital.
