I’ve begun meeting with many of you in the area to talk about your thoughts and ideas for Yarmouth, and the State. My goal as a Representative is to be available to my constituents, and listen to their ideas and concerns. With this purpose in mind, I encourage your calls, letters, and e-mails, and will work to make myself available when not in session in Augusta. Starting on January 27th, I will be at the Royal Bean coffee shop on Main Street in Yarmouth at 10:30 every Monday. I hope you will drop by to introduce yourself, and share with me your questions or concerns. For those of you who like to get their information online, I have a weekly compilation of online Maine headlines from newspapers across the State, in categories from politics to education to fishing, that I can send to your e-mail address. Please contact me at melissawalshinnes@gmail.com to sign up for this great, weekly news source.
