In a May 24 LCN article (“Lincoln Academy expects dip in boarding enrollment,” page 1), Lincoln Academy claimed that the school’s boarding program is highly profitable, and that any financial difficulties have been caused by unpredictable changes in the boarding market. Neither is true.
A Few Dam Thoughts
Before you ask, yes, I’m from away. I’ve been on Biscay Pond for over 30 years. The first 15 were in Bristol, near the outlet, then we moved to Damariscotta, on the west side, about 1/2-mile from the town beach. We spent every summer here and most weekends from mid-May to mid-October. Now that I’m retired, I spend a lot more time here. The winters are as beautiful as the summers, in their own way, and autumn, glorious autumn! Mud season, not so much …
Neighbors Helping Neighbors
I would like to take this opportunity to thank many people in our community. On April 27, while shopping in Hannaford, Damariscotta, with my granddaughter, I suffered a major cardiac arrest.
Waldoboro’s Marijuana Ordinance – Too Soon
I am writing to urge Waldoboro voters to say no to the Ordinance Prohibiting Retail Marijuana Social Clubs and Retail Marijuana Establishments in the Town of Waldoboro.
Waste Watch
June? Can you believe it? Schools will be closing soon for summer vacation. Summer camps are open. Vacationland is starting to live up to its billing. At the station we will be seeing more traffic, trash, and tourists. Welcome to Maine.
Lincoln County Artsbeat
Fantastic Ms. Fox: Bristol painter Judy Nixon recently gave me a heads-up about the art show currently up in the Hall Gallery at LincolnHealth’s Miles Campus in Damariscotta featuring the work of Durham artist Annette Fox.
Long Cove
Well, Mom, here it is, a final writing just for you, my greatest fan of my LCN column. I hope I can live up to your expectations for you were a woman who worked very hard for everything she had in this life; you certainly knew how to enjoy and have fun along the way.
Round Pond Column
This Thursday, May 31, there will be a Round Pond Village Improvement meeting at the firehouse at 7 p.m. We have much to discuss with the vandalism problems at the lock boxes at the tennis courts and the town landing. We are not sure what the answer is, but perhaps with a little brainstorming we can all come up with a solution.

Lincoln County Artsbeat
Thumbs-up weekend: So, it’s fair to say that I had an excellent weekend. It began Saturday morning, May 19, when I got myself out of bed very early to head down to Damariscotta’s Lincoln Theater from my home in Whitefield to watch the wedding of Meghan Markle and Prince Harry on the big screen at 7 a.m. (I am an unabashed Anglophile, with a particular fascination for the goings-on of the royal family. Don’t ask me why; that’s just the way it is.)
MEMORIAL DAY
On Memorial Day, we often seem to focus on the wars of long ago.
Lyme Time They said what?!
“You’ve been treated, so any residual symptoms will fade in time.”
“You’ve been listening to that quack group too much. You need to stay away from them.”
These are just a few things that people have been told recently by medical providers here in Maine. As an advocate who’s been sharing updated research with medical providers, hosting events, and sharing educational information with the public for over four years, it’s frustrating to hear the things that their primary care doctors are telling them.
Waldoboro Wanderings The story of the Mabel Clark - Part three -- the aftermath
Tristan da Cunha, the small island in a group of three in the South Atlantic where the Waldoboro vessel Mabel Clark was wrecked in May of 1878 is still the most remote inhabited place in the world. Discovered for the first time in 1588 by a Portuguese captain, the island, lying between Cape Horn and the Cape of Good Hope, has been claimed at one time or another by the United States, France, Holland, and, since 1817, the United Kingdom.
A NOTE ON THE CELTICS
As the Celtics head to Cleveland with a 2-0 lead over LeBron James and the Cavaliers in the Eastern Conference finals, we would like to reflect on a prediction in this space on Oct. 19, 2017.
