Holiday Inn first rate

Progress always comes at a price. We need to look no farther than the closing of the Holiday Inn on Main Street in Bangor to have the point driven home. During my 18-plus years at Bass Park, the Holiday Inn often played a vital role in our ability to “make events happen.”

Whether they were welcoming families in town for the tournaments, finding accommodations for a famous country act or catering a sit-down meal for 500 in the Civic Center, we could always count on “Main Street” to do a first-rate job.

While most everyone looks forward to the development that will follow, let’s take a moment to reflect on the efforts of all the dedicated employees of the Holiday Inn, acknowledge their contributions over the years to making Bangor a better place for all and wish them the best of luck in future endeavors.
