Maine has its own Liberty Bell. Augusta is the easternmost Capital city in the country. The world’s first French fried potato was “invented” in our state as was the donut hole. Maine’s oldest town was incorporated 125 years before the birth of the United States. AND, Maine is the only U.S. state with one syllable.
Tim O’Brien, author of a fascinating and original guide to Maine will talk about these fun facts and much more when he visits the Ogunquit Memorial Library, 166 Shore Road, on Friday, July 25 at 10 am as part of the Seaside Speakers Series. He’ll present a colorful program on his book, the “Maine Roadshow: A Roadside Tour of the State’s History, Culture, Food, Funk & Oddities.”

Fiber Arts Friends

Sweet Stitches is a crafting group for knitting, crochet, sewing, cross stitch, and other fiber arts. Join us and bring a project you are currently working on or a finished object to share and begin a new one.

The group also works with The Warming Project, an organization looking for crafters to make blankets, scarves, mittens, hats, and socks for the unsheltered on the seacoast. Yarn can be provided for this if you have the skills but not the materials. Yarn donations will also be accepted.
