Cassidy Charette

An Androscoggin grand jury has issued two manslaughter indictments today (July 8, 2015) relating to the hayride crash in October of 2014 at Harvest Hill Farms that killed Cassidy Charette, a Messalonski student, and seriously injured her boyfriend Connor Garland of Belgrade.

Big Brothers Big Sisters of Mid-Maine recently launched its newest mentoring program in the Oakland school system, pairing students from Messalonskee High School with youth facing adversity in its neighboring elementary schools.

'Bowl for Cassidy's Sake' is a special fundraising event to honor the memory of 17-year old Cassidy Charette of Oakland, who changed lives through her volunteer work at Big Brothers Big Sisters.
