This past spring and summer, the Maine Public News team took to the road to talk to YOU about what is going on in your community, what are some developments worthy of celebrating, and what types of news stories and coverage are important to you. We travelled from Ogunquit to Caribou to Farmington and a number of locations in between and heard first-hand from hundreds of citizens about what is going on in the state.
Take a look below at some of our impressions and takeaways from our inaugural Tell Me More Tour.
