Mapleton rocks the new year

The Mapleton Lions Hall was again the site of a rockin’ New Year’s Eve. The hall was filled with partygoers looking to welcome the start of 2018.  The dance was nearly a sellout, with only two tickets unsold.  

Headlining the musical entertainment was Aroostook County’s own Common Crossing, who played  dancing music loved by dancers of all ages.  Common Crossing band members are Doug Cronkhite on drums, Shane Mountain on vocals and bass, Brian Mosher on vocals, guitar and keyboard, and Josh Kovach on  guitar and vocals.  

The Mapleton Lions Club thanks all who came out to support the club and enjoy the evening, and reminds everyone to be looking for the announcement of the 2018 New Year’s Eve bash.
