Maine Voices: Fellow Mainers, enjoy vacation in June in your own backyard

PORTLAND PRESS HERALD • May 16, 2020

My Mainer friends…if you are worried about Maine’s economy, let’s get something straight: You can help. Book a vacation now in June in Maine because we business lodging owners cannot open our businesses to anybody outside Maine for the month. Don’t act like a typical Mainer by trying to keep your vacation as cheap as possible while at home to go spend, spend, spend somewhere else. In the month of June it is up to us Mainers to save our downtowns, our hotels, our wonderful lakeside cottages and our beautiful beachside tourism. ~ Julianna Acheson, Wells
