With the Maine Potato Blossom Festival coming to an end, I’d like to thank everyone for making this another awesome year. There is a lot of behind the scenes action that takes place to make this entire event run smoothly. I’ve helped set up a huge tent with a great group of people and employees, washed a crazy amount of cars with a bunch of our Paid Call and Career personnel, we had a huge sprinkler at the Family Fun Day, one of the largest turnouts for our Mini Muster, was amazed by the amount of people lining Presque Isle Street and Main Street for the Parade, and finished it off with the fireworks show tonight with my family.
The support we received from the community is always outstanding and what’s greater than that is the dedicated people we have on our department. Constantly showing up and representing what our department is about. Without the members of this department, it would not of gone this smooth for us. I want to thank each and every one of them for stepping up and helping me make this another great festival.
Be ready for what’s coming next year, I have no doubt it’ll be better than before!
