ELLSWORTH MILLER MEMORIAL LECTURE SERIES Many thanks to Bill Danielson for his lecture on October 10th—“Chebeague Weather: Past, Present, and Future.” Bill explained how the weather and the island have changed over the centuries. Our next lecture will be via ZOOM only and will feature Dwayne Tomah, a teacher of the Passamaquoddy language and culture. Dwayne’s lecture will be "The Doctrine of Discovery" - a story of historical truth, spirituality, and resistance, told on behalf of the original nations and peoples. Dwayne is the youngest fluent speaker of the Passamaquoddy Tribe and has served on the Tribal Council. He is currently working with the Library of Congress on translating the Passa maquoddy Wax Cylinders. These recordings are the first recordings in the world of Native languages. They were record ed in 1890 by Jesse Walter Fewkes, who borrowed the device from the inventor Thomas Edison. You can join us on November 14th at 7 PM by going to zoom.us and selecting Join a Meeting. Meeting ID is 829 6247 6056. No password is required.

Chebeague Island Council
As life on the island quiets down, the Council is busy offering popular programs to the community. We held a well-attended COVID and flu vaccine clinic in October, administering shots to over 120 islanders. The Wellness Center continues to host Dr. Larson on the first and third Fridays of the month, as well as Dr. St. John of Mend Health and Wellness to provide chiropractic services. The podiatrist, Dr. Rybka will be here November 2. Please consult the calendar and call the practitioners to schedule an appointment. We are also working to have a nursing presence back on the island. You may have noticed that the mountain of Clynk bags is gone from the Chedemption shed. Annie Thaxter and the Bagettes have worked hard to ship the bags off the island and out of our waste stream. Wednesday SOUP is starting up on November 16 and 30. If we have enough volunteers to cook and
serve, we can serve soup weekly throughout the winter. Please let us know if you can join us.
