Welcome to Lincoln
Named “The 2020 Town of the Year” in a Sports 92.9 Ticket poll, this town is known as the “Home of 13 Lakes” and lays along the banks of the mighty Penobscot River. Originally a mill town, Lincoln is in the process of redefining itself as it moves into the future. There are interesting activities for all types of visitors year-round, and more are being added frequently.
A must-see while you are in Lincoln, is the Medal of Honor recipient MSG. Gary Gordon statue at the Lincoln Veterans Memorial Park. Gordon, a member of Delta Force, lost his life defending his comrades in Somalia in 1993, and the movie “Black Hawk Down” was based on this incident.
