Anyone know anything about this paper?

It's been a LONG time since I've been in Brunswick, but it's a pretty nice town. The Navy base is the big thing there ... Freeport (Outlet malls, Home of L.L. Bean) is about 15-20 min away and Portland is about half an hour. Boston's not too far out at 2 and a half.

Not sure what the paper would be covering other than high school, but my guess would be the small college that is there (Bowdoin) and possibly Portland's minor league team (AA affiliate of the Red Sox).

CHEAP (and great) lobster!
