It appears that we’ll finally be transitioning from ski season to bike season. Anyone who enjoys biking or is interested in getting into it should realize that there are a lot of opportunities to learn, trails to ride, and groups to ride with in the County.

The UMPI/Momentum Aroostook Young Professional Institute is wrapping up this week and was a huge success. Plans are in the works to offer the course again in the future.

Along these lines, there are two other educational/professional development opportunities to be aware of. One is the Dale Carnegie Strictly Business Seminar, coming to Presque Isle in May. The second is BUS 486, Strategic Professional Communication, a course being offered at UMPI this fall. Information on both opportunities is contained in the links below.
