EMS response in rural areas like Maine is too long to save a life of someone who is bleeding out! The ABC’s learned in first aid classes do NOT cover what to do when there is a major bleed. Hands on learning for: effective bleeding control, estimating blood loss, compression bandage use, tourniquets, wound packing, penetrating injuries, treatment for shock and emergency transfer. A supplies list will be provided in advance.

Learn how to create seasonal felt flowers. You will make several flowers and finish them on a farmhouse-style wood board which you will then add a message on the wood out of vinyl. Materials fee of $20 (cash please) is payable to the instructor at class.

Send and receive postcards from all over the world! The idea is simple: for every postcard you send, you will receive one back from a random postcrosser from somewhere in the world. All you need is a postcard, a stamp, and a pen! Postcrossing brings many people together, making the world a smaller and happier place, one postcard at a time. There are countless reports of new friendships made, new languages learned, and numerous cultural facts about other countries that people learned through their exchanges in the project. Join Julie as she walks you through setting up your free postcrossing account, address your postcards and decorate them how you'd like. What a unique and fun way to meet people from all walks of life! Please bring your smartphone or tablet and a pen.

Julie Bolton is a former teacher, website designer, and product manager for a software company. She joined Postcrossing in 2023 when she moved to Maine from Ohio and wants to share her love of international postcrossing with more Mainers. She attended her first postcrossing meetup in Biddeford in the summer of 2024 and met others from Maine and Massachusetts who love connecting around this fun hobby. She is active on the Board of Directors of Saco Main Street and loves calling Maine her new home!
