My name is David Gothrow and I am 10 years old. My fifth-grade teacher assigned my class a project to learn more about the states in the United States of America.

I live in California, but I chose to do my report on the state of Maine because that is where my grandfather was born and raised.

My report is due on May 29. I was hoping to get some help from the people of Maine. Could you please send me information or interesting facts about your beautiful state that I could share with my classmates?

Please send information to: David Gothrow, c/o Arboga Elementary School, 1686 Broadway, Arboga, CA 95961.
