Bangor Savings Bank Foundation awards $2,000 to Friends of Community Fitness for 2025 Fall Foliage Tour
GUILFORD — Friends of Community Fitness is pleased to announce it has received a $2,000 grant from the Bangor Savings Bank Foundation to support its 2025 Fall Foliage Tour. This much anticipated community trip gives local residents the chance to enjoy the beauty of Maine’s fall season while connecting with friends and neighbors.
Last year’s tour welcomed 47 participants who experienced breathtaking views, laughter and fun while playing games together on the bus. Thanks to the generous funding from Bangor Savings Bank Foundation, this year’s trip will be more accessible than ever. The support has allowed organizers to reduce the registration cost, making the tour affordable for all, while also including a delicious bag lunch provided by Maine Coffee & Mercantile.
