There's a new story to explore in Rumford!
Are you familiar with story book walks? The pages of a children's book are posted along a walking path for families to enjoy. Our story is outdoors, beginning at Rumford Public Library and continuing onto the adjacent Chisholm Riverside Walking Trail.
Thanks again to Healthy Oxford Hills for supplying this beautifully illustrated title!
