Characters of the County: Growing Horizons with Chris Perry ’84
by Johnathan Riley for The Lincoln County News
Part of the joy of having a passion is sharing it with others, and for decorated athlete, longtime Bristol Consolidated School physical education teacher, coach, and pumpkin grower Chris Perry, he continues to love working with the young athletes and students of Lincoln County.
Perry, of Damariscotta, grew up in Nobleboro, attending Nobleboro Central School and then graduating from Lincoln Academy in 1984.
“I grew up in North Nobleboro,” Perry said. “Everyone up in that area went to Medomak (Valley High School) but I wasn’t going to go there, I had my sights set on Lincoln all the way.”
