Then and Now

Plans were furthered for the 1961 folders and officers elected for the coming year at the November meeting of the East Penobscot Bay Resort Association.

Two new members were elected at the meeting held at J. Hallowell Vaughan’s.

Designs of the EPBRA folder next year will be changed, with photographs of the area being included in the inside pages. At least 15,000 copies will be printed and distributed throughout the state of Maine, in Rockefeller Center in New York, and, to encourage Canadian patronage, in Montreal and Calais. Chairman of the folder committee is Mrs. Vaughan.

Miss Minerva Cutler of David’s Folly, West Brooksville, was elected president of the organization for the coming year. Other officers elected were Lewis W. Blodgett, Blodgett House, West Brooksville, vice-president; Mrs. Blodgett, treasurer; Mrs. O. C. Dauenbauer, Castine Cottages, Castine, corresponding secretary; and John Russell, Russell the Printer, Little Deer Isle, program chairman.
