Fryeburg Maine – Let's Go!

A bird's eye view of our beautiful town and the Saco



My fellow Fryeburg citizens, 

   As you know, Fryeburg is one of Maine's most beautiful and charming towns. Can we keep it that way? Yes we can and much more.
   You many not have heard this yet but Ed Price, chairman of the Fryeburg planning board is not re-upping for another term. Thank you for your service Ed. It's much appreciated. After serving faithfully for the past six years, he felt that it was time for him to move on and give another civic minded resident a turn in helping shape our town's future. Could it be you? Or you? How about You?
   I'm asking in this way because Fryeburg really needs You. Anyone that cares about our little town, I'm asking you to step up, go to the town office and volunteer to be on the planning board. And if that position is filled, there are other positions open.
   Fryeburg needs much more citizen involvement. At town meeting a few weeks ago there were less than 150 voters in attendance. That low percentage of turn-out is not healthy for any municipality.
Our wonderful town needs more hands to become more economically healthy, period. We can't wish it to happen, we have to make it happen and that can only come about by doing. Contributing time and effort. But first we all need to contribute to the discussion – what do we want for out town?
Please join with me and join the Fryeburg Business Association. You do not have to be in business to join. You just have to want to make Fryeburg better. I also invite you to go to Facebook and 'like' Fryeburg & Friends, a page where we can all get together and talk about Fryeburg issues.
   If you want more information please feel free to contact me at (603) 986.8110 or email me.
   Let's go! Together we can keep Fryeburg beautiful, rural, welcoming and ready – ready to meet the challenges of the 21st century. There is a great opportunity here to do something great not only for our town but for our state as well. All YOU have to do is take this opportunity, accept my invitation. 
   Come with me and let's be proud of Fryeburg, the Western Gateway to Maine!
