Civic Development

The Civic Development Committee creates and maintains the following public gardens in our community;

  1. Boothbay Memorial Park which includes Armillary and Butterfly Gardens
  2. Blue Star Memorial
  3. Gazebo on the Common
  4. Civil War Monument.

We maintain these gardens throughout the spring, summer and fall. Four weeding teams are formed each year and meet the first Monday of the month at 9:00am at the Armillary Garden. All members are encouraged to participate, one day per month, on one of the four weeding teams and enjoy our gardens.

In addition, in the spring, we plant annuals in window boxes and distribute them to public buildings in the Boothbay Region.
​
In November, Christmas wreaths are decorated by our members at a workshop close to Thanksgiving and placed on forty town monuments and public buildings throughout the region.
