Membership and Map - Closing time is here... We are in the final stages of the Freeport Map and Visitor Guide layout. This valuable publication is an important part of your membership in FMA. The FMA Map is one of the two largest tourism publications in the state of Maine, second only to the Official Maine State Highway Map. The FMA map and FMA's www.FreeportUSA.com website are how virtually everyone finds out where to shop, play, dine and stay when they come to visit Freeport. Don't miss the opportunity for them to find you! If you haven't already done so, make sure you have your membership and map materials in order and at the FMA office by next week. (February 27th) Call Myra if you have questions - 207-865-1212 or mhopkins@freeportusa.com
Freeport First Update... The Freeport First program for 2009 is off to a good start! There was a pretty full house at the "fam" event held at Captain Briggs House B&B recently. Again, imagine the positive impact we can have on our visitors’ experience in Freeport if our workforce could share information about Freeport through first-hand experience! Every year we try to provide just such opportunities for both managers and front-line staff. This year we want to have a better than ever "Fam Tour" schedule. This initiative will give all participating Freeport business owners, managers and employees an opportunity to enjoy the Freeport experience. We are working together to create a schedule of events and activities that all participating members can host and enjoy throughout the months of March, April and May. This familiarization and orientation of Freeport will include overnight accommodations, dining, tours of the area and participation in Freeport activities like the Desert of Maine, ODS walk on and even a harbor cruise as the weather permits! Please consider how you can participate in this opportunity to keep Freeport top of mind throughout the year. This is an opportunity to have some fun, learn something new, and shoe your buisness of to fellow FMA members and staff! Plan something now so we can tell everyone in the March Newsletter. To participate or get more info, please contact Myra at mhopkins@freeportusa.com or call the office 865-1212.
