Chedemption 2024 We had a fantastic Chedemption season in 2023! Over 2,100 Clynk bags were shipped off the island for no charge, thanks to Casco Bay Lines. This removed more than 34,000 pounds of glass, plastic, and aluminum from the island’s waste stream. The Chedemption Committee is once again asking for the island non-profits’ assistance in bagging up returnables during the summer months. Each non-profit received a check for $600 thanks to its 27 hours of volunteer help at the Chedemption shed last summer. Please reach out to one of these non-profits if you’d like to help them cover their hours. Keep in mind that volunteer weeks begin on Wednesday afternoons and run through Monday mornings.

THE SEASIDE BRASS QUINTET SATURDAY, AUGUST 31, 2:00 P.M. JIM AND ANNE GALLAGHER’S COTTAGE

HALCYON STRING QUARTET ROBERT MCCLOSKEY’S “MAKE WAY FOR DUCKLINGS” SUNDAY, AUGUST 4, 4:00 P.M. Our “children of all ages” program has become one of our most popular o ff erings. This year’s program, created by the young members of the Halcyon String Quartet, will feature Make Way for Ducklings , Robert McCloskey’s enchanting story of two mallards who raise their brood on an island in the Boston Public Garden. Make your plans now to be charmed by the musical adventures of Mr. and Mrs. Mallard and Jack, Kack, Lack, Mack, Nack, Ouack, Pack and Quack. The MacBeth Concert Series is honored to introduce classi cal pianist Henry Kramer to Chebeague Island. Raised in Cape Elizabeth, Mr. Kramer has emerged as one of the most celebrated pianists of his generation. He’s been praised for his “astonishingly con fi dent technique” and the New York Times has extolled his “thrilling and triumphant” performances. CONCERT PIANIST HENRY KRAMER SUNDAY, AUGUST 18, 7:00 P.M.

What could be more pleasant? A sun swept lawn overlook ing Chandler’s Cove. Fun, eclectic music. Relaxed patrons singing along. Passersby wandering in to check out the scene. The Seaside Brass Quintet has built an increasingly loyal following since joining the summer series so many years ago. Make your plans now to join us when they re turn to Chebeague in late August.

TYLER PUTNAM AND SARAH NORDIN “CARMEN” SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 8, 7:00 P.M.

One of last season’s most memorable moments was the eruption of applause and the cries of “Bravo” and ”Brava” at the conclusion of La Boheme. Opera had come to Che beague—triumphantly! Tyler, Sarah and their friends will thrill us again this summer with an abridged version of Georges Bizet’s Carmen, the world’s most popular opera. Come see what fi rst-class opera is like on an island in the middle of Casco Bay.

All performances will be held at the Chebeague Community Church, except as otherwise noted. MacBeth gratefully acknowl-edges the support of the Chebeague Island Community Associa-tion, which serves as our fiscal agent. QUESTIONS? Contact Carl Tubbesing at carldt@gwi.net.

The Recompense Fund has a lot going on!! Most importantly, we invite all who love Chebeague to attend our annual grant recognition gathering, which will be August 5 at the Chebeague Island Recreation Center, at 5 p.m. At this annual gathering Recompense celebrates all the island nonprofits, and we hear from the organizations about what the donations are fueling. Please join us for desserts and lemonade at this event. This month, highlighting one of Chebeague’s nonprofits, we turn to The Chebeague Island Historical Society. In 2023, Recompense awarded $7,000 to the historical society to help build a table that showcases the historical evolution of Chebeague. Pictured is CIHS President Beth McNulty by the table - and it must be noted, Doug Damon put in a crazy number of hours wiring this. It’s a must-see. For 2024, Recompense has granted $10,609 to the historical society to help hire an administrative coordinator - Beth Weiss - as the organization transitions from Donna Damon’s

formative leadership, upon her retirement. As always, Recompense welcomes community donations to help support the island’s vibrant nonprofits. It’s easy to donate! Visit https://www.recompensefund.com/ to learn how.
