Yarmouth Clam Festival Success

The Yarmouth Clam Festival http://www.clamfestival.com/home.phps one of the most successful events in Maine. In part this is do to MCHG's commitment to the community. Both the Muddy Rudder http://www.muddyrudder.com/ and Freeport Inn & Cafe http://www.freeportinn.com%20have/have traditionally played major roles. This year was no different.

The Rudder sponsors the "Muddy Rudder Canoe Race. It starts in the Royal River and ends up the Cousins River at the Rudder. This year, despite the weather, was a success.

The Best Western Freeport Inn & Cafe sponsored the Diaper Derby. 150 crawlers, walker and runners participated. Channel 6 sports broadcaster, Lee Goldberg announced the event. Rumor had it that one racer, after the pee test, was disqualified. But the rest were fine. This years surprise was that fact that parents at the finish line went high tech. Instead of the the usual bribes of food and toys, some some used Cell phones. One even had a TV remote control. They times they are a changin!

Thanks to the many MCHG volunteers for supporting the Clam Festival. (especially Les Garey who was on the steering committee) Good for the community, good for business, and lots of fun!

Celebrating in Gilford

TownePlace Suites by Marriott, Gilford, NH www.marriott.com/mhtgf recently celebrated their opening with a VIP reception. The community came out in force to support the leadership team of Doti and Larry. It was THE who's who event of the year. MCHG leaders from around New England came to join in the excitement.

Rumor has it the top artists performing at Meadowbrook find the TownePlace Suites THE place to stay. Not that the people in the picture are the most famous, but they are all important to the success of this operation.
