Harpswell on the Anchor: George Bradbury

The Harpswell Anchor will present a panel discussion about the future of fire and rescue in Harpswell on Aug. 15 at the Orr's Island Library. The panel will include leaders of local emergency agencies and contributors to the Anchor's August special report, "Involuntary Response: Harpswell Fire and Rescue in Transition."

The Harpswell Anchor launched a new website on July 1. The new site, still at harpswellanchor.org, seeks to improve the reader experience with a clean, modern design and technological improvements.

The Harpswell Anchor collected 29 honors in the Maine Press Association's Better Newspaper Contest this year, including first place in its division for News Story, Education Story, Environmental Story, Investigative Report, Political Story, and Courts Story, as well as a special Freedom of Information Award.
