Newry Residents Receive Wiggie Robinson Legendary Maine Guide Award
At the September 3, 2024 Select Board Meeting, Sen. Lisa Keim presented legislative sentiments to honor Newry residents and Mahoosuc Guide Service founders, Polly Mahoney and Kevin Slater. In the past couple of years, Polly and Kevin have both earned the Wiggie Robinson Legendary Maine Guide Award from the Maine Department of Inland Fisheries and Wildlife, becoming the first couple to do so.
The Wiggie Robinson Legendary Maine Guide Award is presented annually at the Maine Professional Guides Association annual banquet. Winners must have been a Registered Maine Guide for 20 years and been an active guide for at least 10 of those years. Along with guiding, winners must be active in the local or outdoor community, or active on boards or committees that enhance and promote the importance of Maine’s outdoor resources.
Polly and Kevin are incredible assets to Newry and the State of Maine and truly deserve this honor.
