I want to thank all those who came out today for our first meeting in some time. We had three fantastic speakers... kicking things off was Lilly McVetty from Efficiency Maine with some enlightening savings available for Mainers! Followed up by Kurt Johnson who shared an interesting view of ventilating your home... hint, nearly none of us do it right! Batting cleanup with Madeline Hill, President of Maine Association of Realtors with an update on the current and future market! Great kick-off to the 22-23 Winter Training Season!
