AUBURN — The Androscoggin Historical Society, at its annual meeting Tuesday, June 4, will feature a talk by Lorraine Masure on what it was really like to grow up in Lewiston-Auburn as a first-generation American with a rich Franco heritage.
This program will be held at the West Auburn Schoolhouse, 740 West Auburn Road, on the corner of Boothby Street. The schoolhouse will be open for inspection during a social hour beginning at 4:30 p.m. A catered meal at 5:30 p.m. will follow the brief business meeting at which members will elect officers and directors for the coming year. Masure’s talk is scheduled at 6:30.
Lorraine Dutile Masure is a former university administrator, who has lived in Maine most of her life. She graduated from Nasson College in Springvale, and earned a master’s degree in adult education at the University of Southern Maine. She authored “Growing Up Franco-American (with no black leather shoes)” and enjoys presenting paraphrases of her book.
The dinner will include soup, sala, and dessert and a choice of bacon, broccoli and cheddar quiche, vegetable quiche, or a ham or turkey sandwich.
