Show Notes
Fort George in Castine, a historic site facing severe repair needs, is seeking funding from state lawmakers. Built during the American Revolutionary War, it played a crucial role in the Penobscot Expedition. With climate change exacerbating damage, local advocates, including Senator Nicole Grohoski, are pushing for an $18 million bill to restore sixteen historic sites, including Fort George. The goal is to secure voter approval before the legislature adjourns on April 15th, preserving Maines rich history for future generations.
