RANGELEY – Rangeley Lakes Regional School received a mini-grant award from Healthy Community Coalition of Greater Franklin County’s Healthy Maine Partnership program. Through this award the school purchased an assortment of exercise equipment, nutrition education materials, and a Ninja blender for a healthy smoothie day.

The award recognizes the RLRS commitment to work on its tobacco, substance abuse and wellness policies. HCC provides area schools technical assistance by reviewing their policies and providing feedback.

RLRS has made great efforts with their tobacco policy and recently received tobacco-free signage to display throughout their campus. The signs are provided by the Partnership for A Tobacco-Free Maine. For more information on receiving technical assistance, please contact Nicole Ditata at 779-2932 or email at nditata@fchn.org.
