Powered Up: Electricity Restored to Most of Campus

Power was restored late Wednesday afternoon to nearly all of the Bowdoin College campus, 60 hours after high winds and rain early Monday morning caused an unprecedented number of outages across Maine. By 4:00 p.m., the only remaining facilities without power were the Schwartz Outdoor Leadership Center at the corner of College Street and Harpswell Road, the Whittier Field Grandstand, and the Schiller Coastal Studies Center located on Orr’s Island in Harpswell. Crews were working to restore service in these locations.
