This free event is open to families in Sagadahoc County and Brunswick and Harpswell communities. It will take place on Saturday, May 30, from 9:00 a.m. to noon at Midcoast Maine Community Action, 34 Wing Farm Parkway, Bath, Maine.

We invite you to join us as a Community Resource Provider as we celebrate and support expectant parents and new or growing families with children up to 24 months. The Community Baby Shower connects families with valuable information about local resources, educational opportunities, and concrete supports—while also offering opportunities for connection in a fun, welcoming environment.

Registered parents will receive Welcome Baby Bags filled with helpful and fun items. Families can also enjoy raffle prizes, a baby boutique featuring gently used baby items, refreshments, and more!

Community Resource Providers will connect families with concrete supports and provide information about resources available within their communities. We ask that Community Resource Providers also include an activity at their table that will be engaging for families such as a give-a-way, a demonstration, educational or fun activity, or a raffle
