The National Troopers Coalition Picnic will be held on September 13, 2012 at Fort Williams, Cape Elizabeth, Maine. There will also be a 4 hour sunset cruise the evening before the picnic for those arriving early. More information on the flyers below.
Fellow Troopers,
This info will also be on our NEW website, www.mspphq.comclick on the MSTA patch to enter the site.
Here is a list of some of the best hotels we have in Portland and South Portland. Please don’t wait to the last minute to make reservations as you can see there are cutoff dates for these rooms.
The Portland hotels are in what we call the “Old Port” or downtown, while the South Portland hotel is a 5-7 minute drive to the Old Port. The Old Port section of Portland will also be the center or starting point for most of the events . The Maine Mall is directly across from the Wyndham hotel for families that may be accompanying Troopers to Maine but not attending the picnic.
The rates are set for September 12th and 13th, but can be extended for more dates if necessary. If you have any questions feel free to call or e-mail me. 207-671-5767 or douglas.cropper@maine.gov /svp@mainestatetroopers.com
VENDORS- The MSTA will NOT be charging a booth fee for vendors at this picnic. However, if you are a vendor from far away and you choose not to bring tables to display your merchandise, we will be renting tables. Purchase of picnic tickets to enter the event will be mandatory. Please register your booth and table rentals with Rob Nichols at robert.n.nichols@maine.gov by August 1st .
