I got involved in this program because I thought it would be good for me to get to know future and current women leaders all over the state. And good for Rockland, too. I've met some really amazing women. If I started telling you about all of them, and the work they are doing, it would take up my whole website! If you want to go to the Emerge website and learn about this amazing organization,

We had a day at the State House, and we have met many women in national political action. We heard from Janet Mills, Maine's first woman AG...I can't go into all the amazing women and men we got a chance to work with. But, I can tell you it really helped me get out of my cocoon ( some of you are shaking your heads I am sure) and get around the state, AND help to put Rockland on the map. I spent a lot of time in intense conversation with women during receptions talking about my dream of a green economic corridor, about people-friendly transportation, and how you CAN do green energy and economic development at the same time. Everywhere I went, people were talking about our cool city. I felt really proud to be representing us all winter, while we learned from the "pros" how to be effective voices in our community.
