United Way of Eastern Maine’s annual community rally is set to kick off at 11:45 a.m. on Sept. 6, 2007 at Bass Park in Bangor. The public is invited to attend this free event, which includes a complimentary lunch from Hannaford.
The event, expected to draw more than 1,000 people, will include the opportunity to experience a temporary installation of a Born Learning trail, an outdoor-activity walking trail with 10 stations for children and their parents to learn and have fun together. Sargent Corporation has sponsored the permanent installation of this trail in Old Town.
Attendees also will enjoy several fun activities throughout the event, as well as hear from speakers Steven Rowe, Maine’s Attorney General, John Rohman, 2007 United Way Campaign Chair and President of WBRC Architects and Engineers, and others. Rowe will speak on the value of early childhood education, a focus area for United Way. To recognize September as National Recovery month, Rowe will highlight the value that early-childhood learning plays in making positive choices later in life.
