Town Of Frenchboro Holiday Ferry Schedule

The Town Of Frenchboro is posting this email as requested by
Frenchboro Ferry Representative Tammy Desjardin:

The holidays will soon be upon us and the Maine State Ferry Service is
providing us with the option of having ferry service on Christmas and
New Years as they both fall on Sunday this year. (similar to
Thanksgiving departure times)
Though the times may not be perfect for everyone’s personal schedule,
maybe we can all keep in mind that the ferry is willing to make a run
on the holiday,  instead of completely shutting down.
If you have any questions or comments please get in touch with me:
