Join NRCM to Celebrate
We're hitting the road across Maine to meet with our members and supporters to celebrate our shared victories, discuss the road ahead, and connect with neighbors.
Each event will feature brief remarks on top of the second hour, but the events will largely be an informal opportunity to get to know one another and build community.
Questions? Email events@nrcm.org for more information.
