Lisbon – The spirit of giving during the season is alive and well in Lisbon.  Students, staff and families of Lisbon Community School, Philip W. Sugg Middle School, and Lisbon High School partnered with the Town of Lisbon with the Annual Giving Tree program and the United States Marine Corp. for the Maine Toys for Tots campaign.  

 “Student volunteers in the community of Lisbon Schools met to decide on the projects they wanted to assist with during the school year.  Collecting toys during the holiday season was again at the top of the list for activities this year,” shares Monica Millhime, Community Resource Coordinator for Lisbon Schools.  “Students started recruiting toys in the community and the word spread quickly,” shares Assistant Principal Patrie.

Bob Hope Christmas

Bob Hope was without a doubt one of the greatest entertainers of all time. A wonderful look at some special moments Bob spent with the troops during his many Christmas performances. Thank You to all the Veterans that ever spent a Christmas away from their family and to Bob Hope for spending his Christmas with the troops. 

 

To The Entitlement Generation, Take Note of This:

 Dec 23, 2011

While Justin Bieber performed on stage at a Christmas Special this year I noticed the little brat didn't have enough sense to pull up his pants. He sagged. His pants were below his little but cheeks for all the world to see. He actually had to hold the front of his pants up at the end of the song. His parents obviously didn't enough sense to instill some basic manners in him. If you want to 'sag' in front of your young audience that's one thing. But what kind of message does that send to our young generation while performing a Christmas song. I would choose Bob Hope's style and character any day.. Bob Hope performed for the brave troops in WW2, Korean War, Viet Nam and the Persian Gulf War. The actors who he brought along were the very best of the best.

Very Merry Main Street‏

Lisbon's Very Merry Main Street offers free family holiday fun‏

Carolers singing holiday favorites on Main Street Lisbon Falls during the Very Merry Main Street celebration which this year will be Saturday, Dec. 7 from 5 pm until 7 pm.

Bring your family and celebrate the holiday season in Lisbon Falls at the 5th Annual Very Merry Main Street on Saturday, Dec. 7 from 5-7 pm. Free activities include horse drawn carriage rides, musical performances, and the chance to visit Santa.

“Lisbon Falls is the perfect place to experience an authentic small town holiday celebration. As a family friendly destination, we offer activities that will bring smiles to children of all ages,” said Ross Cunningham, President of Positive Change Lisbon, the coordinator of the event.

The evening begins at 4:30 at the MTM Center on School Street where carolers from Lisbon Falls Baptist Church will lead the singing as Santa lights the town’s Christmas tree at MTM park. After the lighting, everyone is invited to follow Santa in a "Caroling Procession" down Main Street to Route 196.

From 5 pm to 7 pm, over 15 businesses in Lisbon Falls will open their doors and welcome visitors to their stores with many providing snacks and drinks and activities. Stop by the Positive Change Lisbon table outside Mike's Flooring on Main Street to receive a card to be stamped by local businesses. Return the stamped cards to be entered into a contest to win a gift basket.

Children will be able to meet Santa for free after he arrives at the “North Pole Annex” in the Masonic Hall on Route 196. Parents can take photos of their kid's visit. All visitors are invited to line up at the Outside Mike's Flooring on Main Street for free horse drawn carriage rides.

During the evening, the Lewiston trio known as “Present Company” will perform holiday favorites at Drapeau's Costumes on Main Street. Local singer songwriter Steve Hildonen will be playing sing a long songs at The Railroad Diner. Participants will be able to hear familiar tunes at Tangles Hair Salon broadcast by Lisbon’s own WQRY Internet Radio.

I will be making a conscious effort to wish everyone

a Merry Christmas this year ...My way of saying that I am celebrating
The birth Of Jesus Christ.So, I am asking my email buddies,
if you agree with me, to please do the same.
And if you'll pass this on to
Your email buddies, and so on... maybe we can prevent one more

 American tradition from being lost in the sea of "Political Correctness".

In GOD we TRUST
