"Your paper, The Boothbay Register, is turning 150 years old this year. That's 150 years of providing local information from the little local happenings to momentous events affecting all local residents. It's information that allows you to participate in local governance, and to improve the lives of you and your loved ones.
Producing this paper has been a labor of love, but a labor nonetheless, that has only increased in financial challenges. As traditional subscribers to the print edition have continuously declined, and publishing online 7 days a week, in a freely available web version, has both challenged costs and reduced income, we truly need your support.
We are turning 150 years old in 2026 and digitizing the Boothbay Register back to 1876! There are lots of opportunities to support the paper and be a part of history. There will be sponsor cover pages for each year starting in 1878. If you would like to purchase one and be a permanent part of history, please contact Sarah at (207) 844-4630. They will be sold on a first come, first serve basis. Options start at $500 (onetime fee). You can also become a sponsor of our "Turn Of The Century" paper by choosing a support level below. Names will be listed alphabetically under the appropriate support level for the year 2000's cover page.
