On Wednesday January 14th a group of local organizations gathered in the upstairs banquet
room of Old Goat Pub in Richmond to discuss potential ways to collaborate. The meeting was
organized by David Tilton of the Merrymeeting Bay Business Association who invited board
members from Friends of Merrymeeting Bay and the Merrymeeting Arts Center. The three
“Merrymeeting” groups were also joined by members from the Friends of Swan Island and The
Lincoln County Historical Association. Over 25 people gathered to discuss ways to strengthen
the Merrymeeting Bay Region. FMI please contact Dave Tilton at 737-2488.
