Updated Info Regarding Summer Camp from Cumberland Rec
May 20, 2020
Dear Residents of Cumberland & North Yarmouth,
I am pleased to announce the Community Recreation 2020 Modified Summer Program Brochure is now available for viewing (click on link below): https://www.cumberlandmaine.com/sites/cumberlandme/files/uploads/2020_summer_brochure_pdf.pdf
Unfortunately, due to COVID related guidelines and protocols, coupled with facility space limitations, we will be unable to offer a full slate of our usual programs for the summer of 2020, some of which include Magic Dragon Pre School Camp, Ranger soccer and basketball camp, cooking classes, pool-based programs, senior programs, etc. We are pleased to report that all of these programs will be returning in 2021!
That being said, we are excited to roll out a wide variety of activities and programs including our staple, the Summer Adventure Day Camp Program. Additionally, there is registration information for the 2020-21 After School Program and Fall Soccer.
Beginning Wednesday, May 27th at 8am you may register online at: www.cumberlandmaine.com. Town hall and our office are currently closed to the public; however, if you need to register in person or fill out a day camp financial aid form, we are open by appointment only and you can email me to set up a time to come in (pbingham@cumberlandmaine.com) These forms are also available on our website.
Sincerely, Peter C. Bingham Director Town of Cumberland Community Recreation Department |

Speak Out Competition for Greely High School Students
 The Cumberland / North Yarmouth Lions Club is hosting their annual Speak Out competition on March 9th. The goal is to provide high school students with an opportunity to think about important issues facing them & their community. Speaker contestants will prepare a 5-minute speech on an important issue facing them, our community, the State, or the Nation. Upon completion, speakers will be asked one question each by two questioners. Speeches are scored by three judges based on content, presentation, and adhering to time limits. The local winner will move on to compete at the district Speak Out competition. This is a great opportunity for students to practice their public speaking, win cash prizes, and receive local and regional recognition.
Please see Mr. Curry or Mr. Livingston, GHS teachers, for details & click here for contest rules. Interested students will need to sign-up in advance of the competition. |
