April 8 was Sara Leone’s birthday. The Wiscasset High School teenager, and daughter of Teens to Trails founders Bob and Carol Leone, had a big love for the outdoors. Together with her parents and her older sister Lindsay, Sara enjoyed so many meaningful experiences in nature, from jumping in cold ocean waves to family camping to watching meteor showers light up the night sky. Sara’s inspired outdoor spirit lives on in both our organization and the scholarship that bears her name.

This is the first February vacation week that I have taken since as least 1986, which is the year before I started at the Boothbay Register. I may have taken the traditional winter school vacation week off in 1987 but I doubt it. I was bartending at Everybody s Restaurant and I needed to work to support my wife, Melodee, and daughter, Sara, who was born in 1984. Son Tim came along in 1988.
My February vacation weeks have been nonexistent because I have been covering the schoolboy and schoolgirl basketball tournaments since 1988. As you may have noticed, I love basketball and it has been a week I look forward to every year. Sadly, this year there is no Maine Principals Association tournament due to COVID-19.
