It was decided with great regret that the Museum building and its outside public bathroom will not be open to the public this year. Our exci:ng new exhibit, Growing Up on Chebeague , planned for this June, will be featured in 2021 and 2022 instead. (A preview video on our website already has had almost 600 views!) We are excited to announce that CIHS Museum Shop is now "open" online. We have a wonderful array of items for sale, including

The Recompense Fund The Board of The Recompense Fund is delighted to announce we have become a 501 (C) 3 nonprofit organization with our own distinct tax identification number (see below).While many in our community may have already believed us to be so, it is only now that we have felt ready to take on our own operating responsibilities at a cost lower than having the Maine Community Foundation (MCF) do so. Nonetheless, we wanted to have a continuing affiliation with the MCF, and as a result the Board has elected to have them manage our permanent and board designated funds. All donations to Recompense should now be sent to our Chebeague Post Office Box 42, Chebeague Island, Maine, 04017. Please email our Treasurer, Jim Van Fleet, at jcvf48@gmail.com to discuss gifts of stock or any estate planning gift intentions. For your records, please note that our federal tax i.d. # is 84-4249483.
