The Katahdin Area offers more to visitors than just being a popular vacation destination. The Katahdin Region's quality of life for its residents is second to none. The "small town" atmosphere is very much alive in this region, bringing with it the serenity and security we remember from decades ago, when life wasn't in a fast lane, but rather idling along-side the road, taking in the full beauty of its surroundings. Here in the the Katahdin Region, the inhabitants take the time to get to know one another, to lend a hand when it is needed, and cherish the friendships that are created. Our towns are dedicated to their school systems: elementary, primary & post-secondary, which are highly-rated and offer many after-school activites for its athletes, musicians and scholars. We have first-rate health care services that are provided by Millinocket Regional Hospital, medical networks in Millinocket, East Millinocket and Medway and supported by hard-working area physicians and medical professionals. There are community recreation resources including swimming pools, tennis and basketball courts, softball, baseball and soccer fields, boat launching ramps and a 9-hole golf course. If you're thinking of relocating to the area, or just stopping for a visit, the Katahdin Area Chamber of Commerce invites you to feel at home. Maine... the way life should be!
