'9 to 5' opening Friday, Nov. 13

A cup of ambition is all it takes to put on the Broadway Junior show, "9 to 5." During the fall at Boothbay Region High School (BRHS), many students are doing double duty participating in cross country, field hockey, cheering, and more, so having a rehearsal as well is very challenging-but always, fun. The upbeat musical will be presented Friday, Nov. 13 at 6 p.m. and Saturday, Nov. 14 at 1 and 5 p.m. in the high school auditorium.

American Island Towns That Still Depend On Passenger Ferries For Everyday Life In 2026

When The Ferry Is Basically Your Highway For most Americans, missing the bus is annoying. In these communities, missing the ferry can mean missing your connection to groceries, appointments, work, school, supplies, or the mainland altogether. From tiny Maine fishing villages to remote Alaskan settlements, these 25 American island communities still rely heavily on boats in 2026. Could you handle planning everyday life around the ferry schedule? Factinate Ltd. #25. Peaks Island, Maine Island: Peaks Island | Ferry connection: Portland Peaks Island sits only a few miles from downtown Portland, yet residents can't simply drive across a bridge to get there. Casco Bay Lines provides year-round passenger and vehicle service, making the ferry a normal part of commuting and everyday errands. It carries far more than tourists, including residents, vehicles, freight, mail, and students. The trip may be short, but that stretch of Casco Bay creates a surprisingly different way of life. #24. Friday Harbor, Washington Island: San Juan Island | Ferry connection: Anacortes and neighboring islands Friday Harbor looks like a postcard-perfect waterfront vacation town, but its ferries perform a much less glamorous job: connecting island life to the rest of Washington. Washington State Ferries serves San Juan Island
