When my daughter was 3 and my son was 5 I had brought them in the bathroom. In the toilet was a huge bunch of white and blue gunk. I asked them, “Do you know what this is?” My son said. “No, Mama”, he was always sincere. The 3 yr old, she was never sincere, said no also, with a 3 yr old guilty face. A few minutes later my daughter said, “Know what Mama? That stuff really looks like Aim toothpaste doesn’t it?” I left he room and laughed all day long! — Marie Casey, Belgrade ME

Little Ethan was Xmas shopping with Mammy and he found a coffee mug for Memere that spelled Grandma. Later Mammy found one that said Grandpa. Ethan said “ No, no, no Mammy – Grandpa doesn’t drink coffee, he only drinks whiskey!” – Mammy Richards, Livermore

I, the grandfather, invited my great grandson to go to a small hands-on farm animal park. When I went to pick him up his mother asked to go. My great grandson and I waited for her in the truck for what seemed like an eternity. From the back seat came his voice saying “Grandpa, women are slow pokes not like men who just like to get in the car and go.” And then said, “ Women need to learn to become fast pokes!” I laughed so hard I had tears in my eyes. – Larry Dyer, Casco Email Address: Phone:

Maine Golf Heritage Scramble

We Need Your Help Saving Maine’s Heritage For Future Generations

The Maine Heritage Scramble is played on the beautiful and challenging classic Donald Ross-designed golf course, with views of the White Mountains and bordering lakes. Optional period attire, plentiful food, longest drive contests, and bagpipe music add to the experience. We believe Arthur Fenn and Donald Ross, Poland Spring’s golf course architects, would approve.

As in the past, this year’s tournament proceeds will be used for the preservation of the Maine State Building and the All Souls Chapel. Because of the generosity of the Poland Spring Resort providing the golf course, carts and food for no cost we are able to put more than 80% of the moneys received directly into our buildings and programs.

In advance of the event, we are asking for your commitment to be one of our golfers, sponsors, or donors to the silent auction.

We thank you for your interest in and support of the Poland Spring Preservation Society’s mission in preserving Maine’s history and traditions.

Hope to see you on the Links!

President & Chairman Golf Committee Poland Spring Preservation Society

The Poland Spring Preservation Society is a non-profit organization, with fund-raising as our major source of support. The Society is dedicated to the preservation and restoration of the Maine State Building, built for the Columbian Exposition of 1893 in Chicago, and the All Souls Chapel, a non-denominational place of worship built in 1912 for the world famous Poland Spring Hotels. Both structures are now owned by the Society and are listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The Society’s other objectives are to: • Offer historic tours, art shows and other educational programming for school children in the Town of Poland and other communities at no cost. • Preserve the rich heritage of Poland Spring, the local community and the state through our research library, archival collections and publications.

HEARTWOOD AWARD

Androscoggin Bank Receives Award from Lewiston’s Tree Street Youth, Celebrates 149 Years of Community Commitment

LEWISTON — Last week, Tree Street Youth awarded Androscoggin Bank the 'Heartwood Award' for service and support of the organization over the last several years. According to Tree Street Youth, the heartwood section of the tree was chosen as it represents the tree's "core," the section that provides support for the tree as it grows and becomes firmly rooted.

Bank President Neil J. Kiely accepted the award on April 24 on behalf of the Bank. "Tree Street Youth is an incredibly dynamic mission-driven, values-based organization that is having an outsized impact on students in our community. As a similarly mission driven, values-based organization, it is a privilege for us to support them in doing such valuable work," Kiely said.

In 2018, the Bank supported the youth center in a number of ways, including donations and sponsorships totaling $36,000 with a substantial contribution to help them launch their alternative high school learning pilot program. Tree Street Youth is a full-service youth center that serves 750 Lewiston-Auburn youth, ages 4-25, in one of the most economically challenged neighborhoods in Maine. Operating primarily during the vulnerable after-school hours, Tree Street supports youth by providing a safe space that encourages healthy physical, social, emotional, and academic development while building unity across lines of difference.

Four CMCC students named to All-Maine Academic Team

AUBURN — Four students from Central Maine Community College are among 20 Maine community college students named to the 2019 AllMaine Academic Team. The students were selected in recognition of outstanding academic achievement, leadership and service.

The CMCC students receiving the award, which includes a $500 scholarship from the Maine Community College System Board of Trustees, are Benjamin Creznic of Wilton; Tyler Hayes of Waldoboro; Zakiya Sheikh of Lewiston; and Rusty Vining of Auburn.

Creznic is an honors student in the nursing program. He plans to continue his studies after CMCC to earn a bachelor of science degree in nursing while working in an emergency room. He ultimately wants to serve as a nurse practitioner in rural Maine.

Hayes earned President’s Honors last fall in the precision machining technology program. He works at Knox Machine in Warren, where he operates large CNC machines that makes electrical turbine parts.

As an honors student in the graphic communications program, Sheikh has found an outlet for developing her creative passion for photography and graphic art. She hopes to work in print media.

After serving two tours of duty in Afghanistan, Vining returned to Maine and enrolled in the precision machining technology program, earning highest honors. He hopes to continue his studies after CMCC to earn an engineering degree relevant to the machining field.

The All-Maine Academic Team is a program of Phi Theta Kappa, an international honor society for two-year colleges.
