JULY 2017 CHEBEAGUE ISLAND COUNCIL CALENDAR
The Recompense Fund
Come join us upstairs at the Niblic from 5:30
to 7:30 p.m. on Thursday July 6. Everyone
attending will have the opportunity to hear
new proposals from nonprofits, the school,
and the town that may help sustain the island
as a thriving, year-round community.
Many organizations and their volunteers do a great deal for our
community. The Recompense Fund is humbled by their efforts and
values all their ideas. The fund also takes seriously the confidence
of its many donors who trust the fund to make sound decisions
when awarding grants.
You will hear about new proposals, new opportunities, and recent
accomplishments. You will be able to ask questions and learn
more about the remarkable ongoing efforts on Chebeague that
benefit us all. Feel free to bring friends and family with you. Just
let us know you are coming and how many you are by writing
to
recompensefund@chebeague.net .Space is limited only by the
size of the room.
The Recompense Fund is Chebeague Island’s community fund,
working to sustain our year-round island community through
financial support to its nonprofit organizations. Visit us at

THANKS TO MY SUPPORTERS
Hopefully, by the time this is published, the transition of my
trucking/junking business will be complete. I now will have
more time to focus on my electrical business and will have
better response times. I apologize to those who have “fallen
through the cracks” on the schedule.
I also want to take the time to again thank all of my patrons and
supporters of the trucking/junking
business. Please extend your patronage and kind words to
Island Services for this much needed service.
Sincerely,
Kim Boehm

Sincere Thanks
During a hasty return to the
island on Father’s Day, I
misplaced a shoulder bag that
contained a lot of valuable
items. My sincerest thanks to
Martha Hamilton and the CTC
staff who helped locate and
arranged to return it to me on
the island. Your efforts are
truly appreciated, particularly
during your very busy season.
Thank you again,
Sincerely,
Tony Gorody
A Note of Thanks
Although I took my digger back in June, my memory of
that experience remains vivid...and mostly POSITIVE due to
the incredible care I received from friends and neighbors.
Much thanks to my kind and competent rescuers, Ehrhardt,
Martha, and Mike; to the CTC crew, Jeremy and Kim; and
to the Yarmouth Rescue team. The cheer and comfort you
provided to me (in the middle of the night) will never be
forgotten. Also, many thanks to all who sent cards and well
wishes (and flowers!!).
I feel very blessed to live on Chebeague.
With much aloha,
Dianne Whetham
Thank you Chebeague Island!
We would like to thank everyone who
helped us after David and his drill press
had a bit of a confrontation. Thanks to the
team of the Chebeague Island Rescue,
the crew on the CTC boat, the Yarmouth
Rescue guys, and John Holt who provided
some necessary transportation.
David Scrase and Melanie Gustafson
