Dog owners: Keep beach clean

Once again I am writing to dog owners who walk their dogs in Mitchell Field. There are no consequences for not picking up after your dog, but it is a courtesy to others who want to use the park and who are not dog owners.

Two dog stations provide free dog bags, with two more stations to be added in the future.

Mitchell Field comprises about 120 acres of paved roads, trails and a beach. There are wetlands and many aquifers that all run down to the beach area. The potential for carrying dog waste down to the beach is high.

Please show your appreciation for this beautiful property by helping to keep it clean and healthy for walkers and swimmers for years to come.

Katherine Goodrich, Harpswell Neck

A better option than demolition

In 2022, the Mitchell Field Committee conducted a survey of more than 500 residents, which found that more than 55% were in favor of repairing and repurposing the administration building. The town commissioned the Midcoast Council of Governments to review the evidence and produce recommendations for the future of the building. After confirming that the building is structurally sound, the organization conducted a series of interviews and workshops. Finding a high level of support, it recommended inviting nonprofits to submit proposals to repurpose the building.
