#CoolingCenters across Maine offer relief from extreme heat

Extreme heat watch ahead of the Fourth of July

By Adelaide Brown, June 29, 2026

PORTLAND, Maine — An extreme #HeatWatch is in effect this week for much of the state ahead of the Fourth of July.

"Need to get out of the heat? There are multiple community cooling centers in Maine that help provide temporary relief from the high temperatures.

"According to the Maine Emergency Management Agency, a cooling center is a facility that has been opened for short-term operations due to a specific emergency or event. They are normally opened when hot temperatures may become dangerous.

"City of #PortlandME officials said the public library on Congress Street will be open as a cooling center on Wednesday and Thursday from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Meanwhile, Troubh Ice Arena will be open as a cooling center on Friday because the library will be closed in observance of the Fourth of July holiday. Portland officials also said there will be splash pads at several city parks and reminded people they can also cool off at the Deering Oaks Ravine.

"The city of #AugustaME also announced that it will offer a daytime cooling center at the Augusta Civic Center on Thursday from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. People are being asked to enter the Civic Center through the South Entrance and follow the signs to the Cumberland Room. Pets are welcome, provided they always remain in a secure crate or carrier, which will not be available on-site. People with questions about the cooling center or transportation needs can call the Augusta Police Department's non-emergency line at 207-626-2370 ext. 0.

How soon people forget...

A century ago, #FrancoAmericans were targeted in #Maine like today’s #Somali #immigrants

Opinion by Tommy Pinette, March 3, 2026

"Two years ago, I learned the infamous #KuKluxKlan exploded in popularity throughout Maine during its resurgence in the 1920s. Across the United States, the terrorist group amassed hundreds of thousands of new followers in a rather clever dissemblance as a community service and fraternal organization. At one point, in fact, approximately 30% of Maine’s native-born population were enrolled members of the KKK. Yet they did not target Somali-Americans, people on work visas, or permanent residents from Africa — they vehemently attacked the people we now call Franco-Americans.

"Prominent Franco communities in #LewistonME, #RumfordME, #OldTownME, #AugustaME, and #WatervilleME, called 'petits Canadas,' became targets of violence for the #KKK.

"One local history of the Franco-American community of Old Town recounts a horrific stand-off at French Island: holding torches and weapons, a mob of angry klansmen attempted to cross the bridge onto the island in order to burn it down. Only the rapid efforts of men in the community to block the bridge physically kept the island from going up in flames.

"And yet, I hear many of my Franco relatives talk poorly about immigrants. They repeat similar slogans to the ones President Donald Trump spreads about immigrants who come from Africa, particularly those from East Africa: “they shouldn’t be here … Somalia is not even a country” Animus defines how many Franco-Americans understand immigrants, the people who stand in the very same place their ancestors once stood a couple generations ago.

"Do not forget that our #WhitePrivilege came at a great historical cost in the forms of systemic French language suppression, decades of shameful stereotypes, and barriers to higher education. For almost 70 years, the state of Maine had a legislative policy of only offering public education in English. We must remember our ancestors, the memères and pepères who endured the same xenophobic insults immigrants in America face today."
