The Town of Damariscotta is celebrating the 10-year anniversary of the Community Heart & Soul project in which Coastal Rivers was honored to play a central role. Since it began in 2009, Heart & Soul has engaged more than 900 Damariscotta citizens and stakeholders in planning for the town's future, and has accomplished a great deal.
We hope you will celebrate with us on the evening of November 19. For event details and a link to RSVP, go to:
There is indeed much for us all to celebrate. It's thanks in part to your support that Coastal Rivers has been able to advance many of the community goals that emerged from the Heart & Soul process. This important work is ongoing.
In fact, the Heart & Soul report inspired many of Coastal Rivers' most important initiatives of the past decade:
- a refurbished Round Top Farm with student gardens
- a new home for the Damariscotta Farmers' Market (May-October)
- new universal access pathway, sidewalk and pedestrian connections (with more to come)
- environmental education programming
- programmatic and physical links to the school
- enhanced water quality monitoring and citizen science
- historic preservation and interpretation
- and more!
I'll be among several presenters sharing the difference the Heart & Soul project has made in the community. Hope to see you there!
