The Island Commons’ online auction, “Bid Hello to Summer!” , will be back for a second year. We had so much fun we thought we’d try it again! For five weeks, beginning with our kick-off on the July 4 th weekend, we’ll be offering tantalizing auction items, each with a new theme. Watch for more details. (And we promise all you early-to-bed bidders that we’ll set a more reasonable hour to end the bidding. Last year’s 11 p.m. was way too late) Stephanie Smith is off and running as our Community Care Navigator! Contact Stephanie a.s.a.p. with your summer in- home care and transportation needs, as time slots are filling fast! 207-846-5610 or navigator@islandcommons.com We’re delighted to announce two new employees: Caroline Trimm joins us as a CRMA. Caroline is an experienced direct care worker, and is entering nursing school. Also joining us is Rose Conley, who brings skills honed over many years as a caregiver. Welcome to both!

We have great summer or year-round job opportunities , both in residential care at the Commons and with our Chebeague Cares in-home service.
