Rick Dolliver Shaves His Head Again for Charity OGUNQUIT Og unquit Select Board member and local business owner Rick Dolliver has not had a haircut in months, but all that’s about to change. Dolliver is once again raising money for the Maine Children’s Cancer Program and will shave his head for charity Tuesday, Sept. 29, during a special event at his restaurant, That Place in Ogunquit. The event will raise money to support children battling cancer and blood disorders. Maine Children’s Cancer Program, a 501(c)(3) organization, is the pediatric oncology
program of The Barbara Bush Children’s Hospital at Maine Medical Center in Portland. It provides treatment for children diagnosed with cancer and blood disorders. Donations raised through the fundraiser will go directly to local children, young adults, and families who rely on the program, according to Dolliver. Dolliver has hosted headshav i ng f u nd ra i se r s t w ice before—in 2014, when he raised $51,000, and in 2022, when he raised about $229,000. His goal this year is to raise $300,000 for the hospital.
“We did this in 2014 and the support was incredible. We raised $50,000 for the Barbara Bush Children’s Hospital, and it was such a humbling and rewarding experience. Now, here we are [again], and I’m even shaggier than the last time,” said Dolliver. The event will begin at 2 p.m. and will be catered by a local food service. A silent auction that afternoon and evening will help the campaign reach its $300,000 goal. Artwork by area artists and other items will be up for auction, including a University of Michigan football helmet
signed by former NFL quarterback Tom Brady and a framed, signed jersey from former Celtics shooting guard Ray Allen. The bar will be open all day, with all proceeds from bar sales going directly to the cause. Others may join in and shave their heads or beards for the cause. During the 2022 fundraiser, the town’s former fire chief shaved off his handlebar mustache. That same year, a local woman with long, thick hair shaved her head, prompti ng compa r ison s to Dem i See SHAVE on page 6...

SOUTH BERWICK The Old Berwick Historical Society invites the community to gather Friday, Sept. 25, at noon for the unveiling of a memorial plaque honoring Marc and Ginny Alterio, recognizing their many years of dedication and service to the Historical Society. Over the years, the Alterios gave generously of their time, talents, and good humor. They planned and hosted house tours, cooked colonial dinners for the Historical Society’s fundraising auctions, and enthusiastically took on roles ranging from a nun to a rum-running bartender in the Society’s memorable dinner theaters. Their generosity to the Society continued after their deaths through a gift from their estate. The plaque will be placed on the Counting House Museum flagpole, which remains dedicated to those who served the country. The site is especially fitting: while serving on the Historical Society’s Board of Directors, Ginny organized the effort to raise the funds to erect the flagpole in 2015. The public is invited to join the Historical Society as it remembers Marc and Ginny and

Maine Heads to The Big E with Food, Farms, Makers WEST SPRINGFIELD, MA From loaded Maine baked potatoes and lobster rolls to wild blueberry crisp, maple milkshakes, smoked salmon, and wood-fired pizza featuring Maine ingredients, the tastes and traditions of Maine are returning to The Big E this fall. The Big E, New England’s largest annual agricultural fair and the only multi-state fair in the country, runs Sept. 18 through Oct. 4 at the Eastern States Exposition in West Springfield, MA. The 17-day event brings together food, agriculture, crafts, entertainment, and exhibits representing the six New England states. The State of Maine Building, located on the Avenue of States alongside buildings representing the other five states, will welcome visitors throughout the fair, with Maine Day celebrated Saturday, Sept. 19. For more than a century, the Maine Building has introduced generations of fairgoers to the people, products, and traditions that make Maine stand apart. The Maine Department of Agriculture, Conservation and Forestry (DACF) owns and operates the building as a showcase for Maine agriculture, food, fisheries, forests, tourism, artisans, and businesses. “The Big E gives Maine a special opportunity to showcase our food, farms, and agricultural businesses to people from across New England and beyond,” said DACF Commissioner Amanda Beal. “Food is one of the most immediate and memorable ways to make that connection. Someone may come into the Maine Building for a baked potato, lobster roll, or a maple or wild blueberry dish, but they leave with a greater appreciation for the farmers, producers, and small businesses behind those products.” The Big E gives Maine businesses access to a larger regional marketplace. For exhibitors and makers, the opportunity extends beyond sales during the fair, allowing them to introduce their products to new customers and potentially generate future visits, online purchases, and other business. “We view the Big E as both a marketplace and a long-term opportunity to build awareness of Maine agriculture,” said DACF Bureau of Agriculture, Food and Rural Resources Director Craig Lapine. “Many of Maine’s farms and food businesses are small businesses, and reaching an audience of this scale is difficult to accomplish individually. By bringing them together in the Maine Building, we can show visitors the robust diversity of what Maine grows, harvests, makes, and creates.” Food remains one of the biggest draws at the Maine Building, and the 2026 lineup offers fairgoers plenty of ways to experience Maine. Longtime favorites include the Maine Potato Board’s loaded baked potatoes and Maine lobster rolls. Tree of Life Maple Farm will offer organic Maine maple syrup,
maple cream, candy, cotton candy, coffee, and milkshakes, while Valley View Orchard Pies brings fruit pies, whoopie pies, and other baked goods from its Oxford bakery. The Maine Aquaculture Association will offer smoked salmon while introducing visitors to Maine’s growing aquaculture sector and the Maine Oyster Trail. This year’s offerings also highlight collaborations among Maine farms and food businesses. Fields Fields Blueberries, a woman-owned organic wild blueberry farm in Dresden, will serve wild blueberry crisp topped with Maine-made Gifford’s ice cream. QP Burger Food Truck will bring together products from multiple Maine businesses in its burgers, hot dogs, and sides, including Fox Family Potato Chips, Raye’s Mustard, and Morse’s sauerkraut. Fire & Company Catering will showcase Maine flavors through wood-fired pizza and beverages featuring Maine producers and ingredients. “These collaborations tell an important story about Maine’s food economy,” Beal said. “When Maine farms, food producers, and businesses use and promote one another’s products, the benefit reaches beyond a single business. Visitors get a great Maine experience while seeing firsthand how interconnected our agricultural and food community can be.” Beyond food, the Maine Building will feature Maine-made wood products, jewelry, personalcare items, artisan goods, and gifts from local makers. Visitors also can see Maine-grown dried flowers from the Maine Flower Collective and learn about the state’s forestry heritage from the Maine Forest and Logging Museum. “Our goal is to spark a connection with Maine that inspires a visit to our state for culinary experiences,” said Maine Office of Tourism Director Carolann Ouellette. “Fair attendees get to learn about the farm and people behind the product, and that develops a bond that we hope will carry forward.”
Taste of Kittery Features Local Bites, Beer, Live Music KITTERY The sixth annual Taste of Kittery will bring together restaurants, cafes, bakeries, and food producers from across Kittery on Saturday, Sept. 19, from noon to 3 p.m. at Post Office Square, 10 Shapleigh Road. The event will feature tastes from participating food and beverage businesses, along with live music throughout the On Saturday, an opening ceremony and ribbon-cutting at the Maine Building will be followed by activities and exhibits throughout the day. Maine will also be featured in The Big E’s daily parade that evening, with Maine 4-H and Maine FFA members participating in events throughout the fair. Food exhibitors include Ledgeway Farm; Maine Aquaculture Association; Maine Lobster Rolls; Maine Potato Board; Sunshine Apothecary; Tree of Life Maple Farm; Valley View Orchard Pies; Fields Fields Blueberries; Fire & Company Catering; and QP Burger Food Truck. DACF’s Real Maine program will participate during Maine Day and Harvest New England Day (Friday, Oct. 2), highlighting Maine farms, food, and agricultural experiences. Storyboards outside the Maine Building will showcase Maine agriculture and the people behind Maine-grown products. “Our small businesses are proud to put themselves and the very best of Maine on display at The Big E,” said Maine Department of Economic and Community Development Commissioner Michael Duguay. “We hope visitors find Maine products, connect with the farm or business behind it, and continue that relationship long after they leave the fair.” For more information, visit www.thebige.com.

KENNEBUNK Dear Snack Department, We’re serving looks, demanding pets, and keeping each other humble. We’re Hoptimus Prime and Bunnifer Aniston and yes, we’re a package deal. We’re a bonded pair of 5-month-old American domestic rabbits, which means we’re best friends, roommates and, occasionally, tiny rivals. We love each other very much. We reserve the right to get a little feisty over important matters, like snacks, personal space, and who was sitting there first. We are very social girls and like to be involved in whatever is happening around us. Walking by without stopping to pet us? Bold choice. We’re big fans of attention and have been known to request pets as people pass by. And by “request,” we mean we make it obvious that continuing on without acknowledging us is simply unacceptable. If you really want to impress us, bring vegetables. Fresh greens are a highlight, and we take snack time very seriously. Hay is a daily must, and a good veggie delivery can absolutely earn you points. We’re not saying food is the fastest way to

WELLS Meet Oliver, the once-lost boy who’s ready to be found. Born January 2025, Oliver is a handsome strawberry-orange sweetheart with a gentle spirit and a quiet hopefulness. His story began in the woods, where he wandered alone until a Good Samaritan brought him to Safe Haven. That single act changed everything. It gave Oliver the chance to leave danger behind and discover what it meant to feel safe, loved, and at home. When he f irst arrived, Oliver was timid and shy. He accepted soft pets but kept his guard up, overwhelmed by all the new sights, sounds, and people. But curiosity was tucked inside this boy’s heart, and it didn’t take long for it to peek through. Once he was introduced to Safe Haven’s open adoption room, Oliver began exploring; cautiously at first, then with growing confidence. He found hiding spots, investigated toys, and even attempted some introductions to his feline roommates, who kindly reminded him that friendships sometimes require a little space. Today, Oliver is blossoming. He’s learning that people can be trusted, that gentle hands bring comfort, and that face scratches are wonderful. He still has a shy little slink when he moves around, but moments later he’s is purring with content-

our hearts, but we’re also not not saying that. We may be small, but we have opinions—mostly about snacks. Most of the time we’re loungi ng, explor i ng, sha ring snacks, and keeping each other company. Having a builtin bunny bestie means there’s always someone nearby for naps, adventures, and moral support. We’re looking for a family ready to welcome two social, sweet, and slightly opinionated rabbits into their mix. Our new household should understand that rabbits need space, attention, and daily time to just be rabbits. A roomy setup, safe places to explore, things to chew, spots to hide, and humans who are ready to make us part of the family? That’s the dream. We like having room to stretch out, investigate, and be part of what’s going on around us. Basically, we’re not looking to just live in a cage. We’re looking to live with you. If you or someone you know is interested in adopting us, give our friends at AWS a call today.

NORTH BERWICK Sweet Charli is looking for a happy home. She was adopted a few weeks ago and the male cat in the home began bullying her. Emma’sAngels took her back immediately and she is happily in the cat room with her friends. Charli is 2 years old, spayed, and up-to-date on her vaccinations—a beautiful Southern belle! She is a very quiet, sweet dilute tabby who gets along well with other cats and kids over 5. Let’s find Charli the home she deserves! Emma’s Angels Rescue is an all-volunteer organization. The organization rescues animals from high-kill shelters in Louisiana and Texas. Emma’s Angels also helps with local owner surrenders and senior dogs and cats. Donations can be left in the drop box at 30 Meeting House Road in North Berwick—dirt road, second mailbox, drop box in the driveway. Thank you!

The event will feature special guest Micah Johnson, an American charcoal artist who works from a seaside studio in York. Johnson is a former Major League Baseball player who played for the Chicago White Sox, Atlanta Braves, and Los Angeles Dodgers before retiring in 2018. He has since developed a body of work in charcoal, large-format painting, and public sculpture that has been exhibited at Christie’s, Bonhams, and Art Basel Miami, and featured on the
cover of TIME Magazine. Johnson is also the creator of Aku, a 3D-animated Black boy who wears an oversized astronaut helmet. The character’s middlegrade novel debuted at No. 6 on The New York Times Best Seller list. Johnson began creating artwork depicting African American children in space helmets after a young boy asked him whether astronauts could be Black. The work became a symbol of limitless potential. “Aku: Journey to Ibra,” an origin story for the character, is Johnson’s first book. Complimentary admission is available to certain York Public Library Association Supporting Members. RSVP is required at 207-363-2818 x 1016 or jshoffman@yorkpubliclibrary.org.

~ Arts & Entertainment ~ Haley Art Gallery Hosts Author Sarah Ignatius KITTERY Haley Art Gallery will host a book conversation with moderator Judy Saryan and author Sarah Ignatius on Ignatius’ newly-released book, “The Kaleidoscope of Destiny” (Koehler Books 2026), Saturday, Sept. 26 at 2 p.m. Set in 1915, “The Kaleidoscope of Destiny” follows 14-yearold Arakel, who dreams of traveling the Silk Road with his two best friends, one Turkish and the other Armenian. Arakel and his family are among the forcibly exiled Armenians driven into the desert during the Armenian Genocide. To survive, Arakel must rely on Arab camel drivers, Bedouins, Germans, Turks, Kurds and even a wandering dervish—people he has been taught to consider his enemies. His dilemma is whether he can trust them. Ultimately, the novel reaffirms the shared humanity of people caught in even the darkest of times. The Kirkus Book Review praised “The Kaleidoscope of Destiny,” saying, “This moving account of the Armenian genocide deserves a place on class-
room bookshelves and on reading lists next to Anne Frank’s ‘The Diary of a Young Girl.’ A beautiful and poignant novel that humanizes the Armenian genocide for a contemporary audience.” A human rights lawyer and nonprofit executive, Igna-
tius taught immigration and asylum law at Boston College Law School for several years, co-authored “Immigration Law and the Family,” and most recently directed the National Association for Armenian Studies and Research in Belmont, MA. Recognized by the New England Society of Children’s Books Writers & Illustrators, the National League of American Pen Women and Glimmer Train, Ignatius was selected as a Somerville Arts Council Literature Artist Fellow. A graduate of Stanford University and Georgetown University Law Center, she is half Armenian and lives in Somerville, Massachusetts, with her family. The event is free and open

Legislation to Modernize NOAA Fishery Stock WASHINGTON, D.C. U.S. Senator Angus King (I-ME) is cosponsoring legislation to update the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s capacity to track and protect fisheries. The Fisheries Science Modernization Act would incorporate environmental DNA (eDNA) and other biomolecular tools into NOAA’s fisheries science programs, bolstering their ability to conduct more accurate and cost-effective stock assessment surveys. NOA A’s stock assessment methods are limited due to their high operational costs and limited vessel availability, resulting in gaps in survey coverage. The Fisheries Science Modernization Act would integrate eDNA into these assessments, a method that is already widely used in the private sector to close these gaps by enabling sampling in remote or hazardous environments while reducing costs.
“Fisheries have long been an essential part of Maine’s economy and culture, and their enduring prominence depends upon their sustainability,” said King. “The Fisheries Science Modernization Act would provide the NOAA with the advanced tools necessary to conduct more comprehensive surveys of our fisheries. By painting a more accurate picture of species health, we can be certain
that our fisheries receive the attention they need, improving their sustainability and keeping them healthy for generations to come.” K ing is joined on the legislation by U.S. Sens. Lisa Murkowski (R-AK), Sheldon Whitehouse (D-RI), Dan Sullivan (R-AK), Jeff Merkley (D-OR), Chris Van Hollen (DMD), Patty Murray (D-WA), and Adam Schiff (D-CA).

NOTICE FINDING OF NO SIGNIFICANT IMPACT NOTICE TO ALL INTERESTED PERSONS TO: All Interested Persons
DATE ISSUED: September 3, 2026
The State of Maine Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS), pursuant to Rules Relating to Drinking Water State Revolving Loan Fund (SRF), Chapter 230, Section 6 has prepared an environmental assessment for the Kittery Water District. The Maine DHHS has reviewed a submitted environmental information document of the proposed project to receive funds from the Drinking Water State Revolving Loan Fund (DWSRF). From this review it has been determined the project will have no significant adverse effects and will improve the human environment of the York area. Therefore, an environmental impact statement will not be required to be prepared. The proposed action is the expansion of the existing water treatment plant building to allow for facility upgrades, including two new filters, a new clearwell, backwash equalization basins, a new sedimentation basin, expanded building areas for the chemical feed system, electrical, mechanical, and finished water pump room. Site improvements include alterations to an existing residual drying bed, construction of a new residuals drying bed, access road improvements, relocation of an existing garage, upgrades to existing underground piping, and installation of a new septic system. A review of the proposed action by the DHHS has indicated that there will be no significant environmental impact. Further records to this project are on file and are available for review at the offices of the Kittery Water District at 17 State Road, Kittery, Maine 03904 and at the Department of Health and Human Services, Drinking Water Program, 286 Water Street, Key Plaza, Augusta, Maine 04333.
