Maine's First Ship

The dolphin for Virginia's dock was constructed of three pilings. It was damaged during the cold snap in February and today removed from the river. Conditions were fine for the project--or observing the project!--with flat calm water and warm spring sun. The same conditions served well for more work on the oars.

Sunday's MFS Annual Meeting "ticked all the boxes." Members gathered at Sarah's Cafe in Wiscasset just down the way from Virginia at her current berth; they listened to committee reports and updates on activities and plans; and they voted on changes to the bylaws and officers for the coming year. Once business was out of the way, it was on to enjoying one another's company and the tasty spread that Sarah and her team had prepared. Thank you both to the Members who were able to join us and to Sarah’s Cafe Sarah's Cafe #thefirstingredientislove #winteringinwiscasset #wiscassetmaine #annualmeeting #thebusinessofnonprofits #makingplans #meetvirginia #historyingenuitycommunity ...
