Rep. Gary Plummer, R-Windham, had the honor of welcoming approximately 115 third-graders from Windham Primary School to the State House March 7. The third-grade chorus had the honor of singing the national anthem in the House of Representatives chamber and spending the day with their local legislators.

Although the March 7 legislative session was cancelled at the last minute, many legislators and staff attended the children’s concert in the State House rotunda and House chamber. Plummer; Rep. Mark Bryant, D-Windham; and Sen. Bill Diamond, D-Cumberland, were delighted to host the students at the Capitol and enjoyed spending the morning with them giving a tour of the State House and talking with them about Maine’s legislative process.

The students also had the opportunity to meet Gov. John Baldacci and visit the Maine State Museum. Sen. Lois Snowe Mello, R-Poland, also greeted the students and recognized her constituent, Nancy Cash Cobb, for the outstanding job she does as the school’s choir director.
