Growing up on Maranacook Lake, the health of our local lakes is of great importance to me. That is why I agreed to serve as the President of the board of directors for the Friends of the Cobbossee Watershed. Maintaining a clean lake, free of toxins and invasive species is key to protecting the community for future generations. The State Government, should work closely with non-profits, local lake associations and citizens to preserve this great resource for generations to come.
