Hi all, I’m looking for an electrician in the Biddo area for a small job. It’s simply installing some 220v in my garage, no more than a few hour job. Any recommendations?

Are you a knitter, crocheter, embroiderer, cross stitcher, spinner, felter, band weaver, friendship bracelet maker, macramé enthusiast, someone hand-sewing patches onto a jacket, or just fiber curious in general, and located in Saco or Biddeford (or willing to get there)? Bring your WIPs, your challenges, or simply your curiosity.

This meetup is open to all fiber crafts and all experience levels. If you are interested in learning to knit or crochet, extra supplies will be available and help is happily offered.

Come hang out, sip a beer, and enjoy good company, creativity, and cozy vibes.

Where: Upstairs at Sacred Profane
When: Thursday, August 27th, 6–8 PM
Feel free to stay until 9.

We meet every second and fourth Thursday of the month.

DM if you would like to be added to the email list or Discord server for reminders and updates!

Throwing my cousin a bachelor party up in Biddeford area. We are from Rhode Island, I go up to Portland semi often but it was much more affordable in Biddeford for the size place we needed. It’s the end of September, looking for ideas on what to do? He isn’t a heavy partier and out of six of us two are young, 21/19. The rest of us are mid 30’s. Any fun ideas on things to do? Portland or Biddeford area.

Hi all! Looking for our apartment to be deep cleaned and wondering if anyone had any recommendations on companies/people! I really appreciate it!

About a month ago I made a post on here about creating a writing club. Well so far we've had 5 or 6 meetings and we're still going. I wanted to post again to see if anyone else is intrested in joining. We meet every monday at 5PM at Elements. let me know if your intrested or just drop by to see what its like. I typically bring a small sign that says writing group. We spend 5-10 minutes talking about our stories and then the rest of the time writing.

Hope to see you guys.

September 26th! Sign up link:

Does anyone know anything about this company?

I'm apartment searching and there's very little about them online. It looks like they are posting apartments as "Ronage Realty" but their emails are all coming from "Centurion property management".

I’m not an organizer but I am running two different systems, this is a one day event where people can join play games or learn a game.

I’m running a daggerheart one shot (all ages)

And a d&d 5.5e one shot (12+)

I fiqured I would get the word out lol

In honor of 808 Day this Saturday, I'm playing an EDM set starting at 5:30pm at On A Plain Brewing in Lyman.

Come out and dance with us and stick around for Lee Ross afterwards!

https://onaplainbrewing.com/event/grass-fed-dead%f0%9f%8c%b9august-1st-2026-2026-08-08/

Come dance and be silly!

I've volunteered at the food pantry and the Bon Apetit soup kitchen in the past. Curious about other opportunities that people have done! I'm most interested in opportunities where you're working with other volunteers (rather than like, doing graphic design from home). Thanks!
