Experiencing the extended community of the St. Croix Valley in the past week has been indescribably reaffirming in my personal belief in the goodness of humanity. In a single week, we welcomed runners from twenties countries, celebrated the international friendship between Calais and St. Stephen, and emphasized the importance of teaching community-based values to our youth. Having experienced that, and having seen beaming smiles emerging from faces of all shapes and ages over the past few days, I am challenged to consider the divisions that are being continually reinforced at the national level of media and politics. Unfortunately, those divisions occasionally spill into the local realm and neighbors can become divided by the actions of far- distant central governments. This year’s International Homecoming Festival and the events that surrounded it were a dramatic and resounding way to declare that, no matter what policies are established, the community of the St. Croix Valley puts its neighbors first. It was a sentiment encapsulated by a simple statement shared in a moment of pure joy during the Passamaquoddy Snake Dance at Sipayik, in which hundreds gathered hands and coiled together and apart. “It’s about loving your neighbor,” said one participant as she moved past me. It’s a statement that remains true no matter how big your neighborhood is.

2nd Annual International Festival Alumni Volleyball Game

The 2nd Annual International Festival Alumni Volleyball Game was held on Friday at the Calais High School Gym. The game hosted 17 players all playing for a good cause: suicide prevention and awareness. The game started a little after 6 p.m. on Friday and went four games with the teal team taking three of the four. The event raised $531 with all proceeds going to the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention. In addition to the game there was a Chinese Raffle and a raffle for Thomas Rhett tickets. Bracelets were sold in memory of Addison Coty with all proceeds going to his family. (Photo by Kaileigh Deacon) PAGE 16

Kathy Bishop created the official Perry Bicentennial Quilt, which will remain hanging in the town office.

Fred Fitch and Howard Duvall worked steadily to provide enough blueberry pancakes and sausages for the breakfast gathering at the New Friendly Restaurant on August 11th.

The Town of Perry celebrated its Bicentennial August 10, 11 and 12. The festivities began with an old-fashioned barn dance at Kendall Farm Cottages Event Barn on Golden Road. Keltic Schmeltic entertained the crowd.

The annual street dance was held on Wednesday night in the municipal lot between the Calais City Building and the Second Baptist Church. DJ Jamie Bohanon kept the crowd moving from 8-11 p.m. with a variety of music that appealed to both the youngest and the oldest in the crowd. Not only did Bohanon keep the music playing, but he often got down off the stage and got the dancing going, leading The Saturday Night Rock Band managed to increase its popular- many of the more popular dances up in front of the stage.

As is a long-standing tradition at the Peanut Fair, the Calais Regional Hospital had their Doll Hospital set up. Kids could bring their favorite doll or stuffed animal and Calais Regional Pediatrician Jodi Ledford was there to make sure Aubrey Beers-Demolet tries her hand at the Angry Birds game at Wednesday’s Peanut that everything was okay with their favorite toy. Dr. Ledford greeted many of the fair sponsored by the Calais PTO and Calais Regional Hospital. There were games for kids by name and gave their special toy the same attention that she gives each of all ages and every win gave participants some coins to spend at the prize tent.
