Little League Lawn Tractor | With spring in the air and dedicated volunteers ready to go, baseball continues to be what kids in Millinocket, East Millinocket and Medway look forward to. The league has a rebuild plan underway. To make this plan a reality, funds are needed for many projects. Your donation through Our Katahdin will make the purchase of a Lawn Tractor possible to keep the fields safe and playable throughout the season. The weeds grow as fast as the players!
Please help us support a great organization which provides memories for a lifetime to children of the tri-town area. Together we can hit this fundraising effort out of the park!
