Community Crosswalk Outreach - Naples, Maine |
— feeling hopeful. |
I'm proud to share that I've designed the brand-new website for the Naples Historical Society!
If you've never visited the museum, now is the perfect time. It's filled with fascinating local history, vintage photographs, artifacts, and stories that celebrate the people and events that helped shape the Town of Naples.
Whether you're a longtime resident or just visiting the Lakes Region, it's a wonderful place to spend an hour exploring our community's rich heritage.
Take a look at the new website to learn more, check out upcoming events, and plan your visit:
I hope you'll stop by the museum—you may be surprised by how much history is right here in our own backyard!

Pay it Forward in Our Lakes Region |
One of the things that makes our community so special is how we support one another. Some local businesses are thriving, while others may be going through a slower season. Sometimes, a small gesture can make a big difference. If your business is doing well, consider “paying it forward” by sponsoring a local business in the Lakes Region Area Guide. For $300, they’ll receive a full year of visibility through the Guide, our newsletter, and local Facebook groups—helping them get seen and supported within the community. No pressure at all—just an idea rooted in community. If you’d like to help another local business, reach out to Sue anytime at lakesregionmarketing@gmail.com. Because when we support local businesses, we all grow stronger together. |
