Community Design Workshop Saturday
The Community Design Workshop is fast approaching - Saturday, Sept. 30! You MUST pre-register to guarantee yourself a seat. Participants will be accepted at the door, but only if there is room. Don't miss out! www.wenamaine.org/form.html

Also, www.MaineToday.com will post photographs of community events on their website. We think the Community Design Workshop would be a great event to photograph. Any digital photographers out there?




Adams to Appear in History Channel Special

State Representative Herb Adams, a noted historian, will be filmed in early October for a national History Channel special on the American states.

Actuality Productions of Denver, Colorado will be in Maine October 2-4 to film Maine locations for a new series, “The States.” Adams will be filmed in a variety of locations, likely to include Portland Head Light and other famous landmarks. The series, featuring each state’s heritage and history, will premier on the History Channel in late 2007.

Adams was proposed for the series by the Maine Historical Society for his “colorful presentations and passion about teaching and Maine history.”

Adams represents the Parkside and Bayside neighborhoods in the Maine Legislature. He is an adjunct faculty member at the University of Southern Maine and contributor to a half-dozen award winning books on Maine history and literature. He is seen frequently on the History Channel, the Learning Channel, and national PBS productions.
