FRYEBURG, Maine — Building Fryeburg as a brand for outdoor enthusiasts was discussed last week at virtual workshops hosted by the town and the Southern Maine Planning and Development Commission, with help from the Fryeburg Business Association.
Other goals mentioned at the sessions held online from Oct 26-30 were cleaning up a defunct gas station and celebrating the downtown's new sidewalk.
