Along Midcoast Maine, winter time tends to slow down the recreational scuba diving opportunities. But for two scuba dive buddies, their time out of water, gave them the chance to do some community service.
Divers Sean Kelly and Chip Lagerbom, who also happen to be Lions Club members from the nearby coastal towns of Camden and Belfast, talked about some sort of collaboration between their two organizations and communities. They hit upon the idea for their respective school districts to run an eyeglass, cellphone, and hearing aid collection drive during the month of March.

We are often told throughout our lives that life itself, through its many twists and turns, can be cruel, unforgiving, and simply unfair. In the early morning hours of February 25, life proved itself to be cruel, unforgiving, and deeply unfair to the local community.
Goose River member and beloved junior golfer, Theo Hedstrom, passed away at the young age of fourteen. He was the victim of a horrific and fast-moving fire that engulfed the home he was living in.
The news hit me like a punch to the gut. I worked with Theo on his golf game, as he was a player on both the Camden-Rockport Middle School, and at Camden Hills High School. I was his coach for three years, and I want everyone to know that he was an amazing human being.
Theodore Hedstrom Celebration of Life drive-in scheduled for Saturday noon
