The special speaker was Dr. Eric Nicholas. He showed a short film and spoke on “How to Sneeze.” Sneezing into your sleeve will help prevent the spreading of germs as the fabric will trap them.
He also spoke on the recent meeting he attended of Maine medical professionals and the resolutions they discussed to promote the health of Maine citizens.

Bridgewater’s music jams take place each Thursday evening, until cold weather sets in, from 6-9 p.m. and feature old time rock ’n roll, country, oldies and standards.
The BHA would like to thank our regulars, Hughie Gray of Easton, Pam Greene of Centerville, and Carol Trafford of Florenceville for performing along with regulars are Denis Gagne (BHA president) on the drums, Jann Votaw (BHA secretary) on guitar and vocals and Simon Blawej Clair on guitar and vocals. Some refreshments are available. All of our musicians are volunteers. Money raised on music nights will go towards a much needed PA system for the hall.
Trying to preserve a small town’s history is not an easy task, and the BHA thanks those who support their efforts.
They hope to see everyone at their planned events.
