Sept. 26 whoopie pie event at the Reading Room

SEBEC — It is Jim Mauzy’s 77th birthday on Saturday, Sept. 26 and because of social distancing there can’t be a party, so what’s better than a whoopie pie contest?

Starting at 3 p.m. on Sept. 26 until the whoopie pies are gone, whoopie pies will be available via curbside pick-up at the Reading Room in Sebec Village, 665 Sebec Village Road, by contribution. All the proceeds will be divided evenly between the Sebec Village Associates to assist in the purchase of a new oven and the food pantry in Milo.
