(SLRCC) and Lakes Region Delegates to be held this Saturday, March 30 from 10

“Based upon the success of the last couple of years, we want
to give business owners and others access to their delegate to discuss concerns
related to doing business in the Sebago Lakes region,”stated Executive Director
of SLRCC, Lynn Mansfield. “It is also an opportunity for delegates to meet with
their constituents.”
Among possible topics and discussion items that may
impact local businesses include, but are not limited to, workforce and labor
shortages, minimum wage, broadband access and marijuana legalization.
“We have invited all delegates from across the Lakes
Region to participate in this forum,” Mansfield said. “The legislative panel
