Merrymeeting Adult Education Update
Last year Merrymeeting introduced "Merrymeeting Youth Programs" to bring summer programming to area youth to continue our long-standing dedication to community education. Merrymeeting has prided itself in offering high-value, affordable community education courses over the years, and we're happy to be able to do even more for our residents. We have created a variety of summer programs for the 2023 summer break to complement the current youth programming going on in the various communities we work in. We hope to continue to be able to provide the same high-quality, affordable programming you have all come to expect from us. Please reach out to us with any questions you may have in regards to our new programming.
