๐Ÿšจ ATV Registration Update ๐Ÿšจ

We appreciate your patience as the State is currently working on shipping out the 2027 ATV registration stickers. At this time, supplies are extremely limited and available stickers must be reserved for NEW ATV registrations only. At this time, the local town office can NOT process ATV registrations. All town office ATV registrations are on hold until the state authorizes us to process them again based on sticker availability.

According to the state, if you are renewing an existing ATV registration, you can ONLY use the Stateโ€™s online registration service until additional sticker shipments arrive. Link is here:
Online ATV Registration Renewal Services:
https://apps1.web.maine.gov/online/atv_snow/index.htm

For NEW registrations:
๐Ÿ“ง Email a copy of your bill of sale, along with your name and phone number, to: [email protected]
OR
๐Ÿ“ž Call the Maine Info Center at: 207-287-8000
and leave your name and phone number for a return call.

As a note:
โœ… Current 2026 ATV registrations remain valid through 6/30/2026.
โœ… Residents who have registered their ATV in the past โ€” even if it has not been registered for a few years โ€” are still able to renew online.

Thank you for your understanding and cooperation during the States temporary sticker shortage.

๐Ÿพ BBQ for a Cause! ๐Ÿพ

Mark your calendars for Tuesday, May 19 and help support a program that keeps older adults and their beloved pets together. ๐Ÿ’™

Eastern Area Agency on Aging is partnering with Moeโ€™s Original BBQ in Bangor for a special fundraiser benefiting our Furry Friends Food Bank program. A portion of all sales from the day will help provide monthly pet food assistance to low income older adults across eastern Maine.

The Furry Friends Food Bank currently supports more than 400 older adults across four counties and relies entirely on community donations to continue this important work. For many older adults, pets are family, companionship, comfort, and emotional support. Your meal can help make sure no one has to choose between feeding themselves or feeding their pet.
