Gabby Gathering – Maine Author Earl Brechlin

Tuesday, August 16th at 2:30pm in-person at the library

Join Maine author Earl Brechlin as he shares some of his favorites from more than 300 people, places, things and events that have made Maine what it is today during a live talk and slide show.

“”Wild! Weird! Wonderful! Maine.” is a celebration of all that makes the state unique — that which sets it apart from the rest of the lower 48 — the people, the places, and the things both real, and sometimes imagined, you won’t find anyplace else,” Brechlin explains.

Nature Adventure Backpacks

Thanks to a grant from the Maine Public Library Fund we have 6 backpacks with the following themes: Birding, Nature Hikes and Tide pooling/Rocks of the Marginal Way. Each theme has 2 backpacks; one backpack containing contents for adults and one backpack with more child-friendly contents.
