Girl Scout leaders and scouts from Troop 5043 stand Sunday under an awning outside 229 Center St. in Auburn in the pouring rain during their annual cookie drive. The event is sponsored by Home at Last Real Estate Company, Guild Mortgage and Phenix Title Service. Clients of the companies were entitled to a free box of cookies and encouraged to also purchase as many as they wanted. Scout members and leaders took turns standing by the road with signs to alert passing motorists of the cookie sales. From left are Jamie Ribisi-Braley, Layla Bernard, Isabella DeAvilla, Janelle DeAvilla, Madilyn Finch and Madilyn Poirier. Russ Dillingham/Sun Journal

We believe it’s important to offer commenting on certain stories as a benefit to our readers. At its best, our comments sections can be a productive platform for readers to engage with our journalism, offer thoughts on coverage and issues, and drive conversation in a respectful, solutions-based way. It’s a form of open discourse that can be useful to our community, public officials, journalists and others. Read more...
We do not enable comments on everything — exceptions include most crime stories, and coverage involving personal tragedy or sensitive issues that invite personal attacks instead of thoughtful discussion.
For those stories that we do enable discussion, our system may hold up comments pending the approval of a moderator for several reasons, including possible violation of our guidelines. As the Maine Trust’s digital team reviews these comments, we ask for patience.
Comments are managed by our staff during regular business hours Monday through Friday and limited hours on Saturday and Sunday. Comments held for moderation outside of those hours may take longer to approve.
By joining the conversation, you are agreeing to our commenting policy and terms of use. More information is found on our FAQs.
