PORTLAND PRESS HERALD • July 9, 2021
There’s nothing better than Scarborough’s beaches in the summer! To balance the many uses of the beaches — playing, relaxing, exercising, swimming, fishing, ball fetching, wildlife habitat, etc. — the Town has set rules for humans and their four-legged friends. It’s not every day a person can see an endangered species, unless you visit Scarborough’s beaches. The white, sandy beaches are some of the few places in Maine where endangered piping plovers make their nests and raise their chicks every summer. To do your part in protecting them, please follow the dog rules.
