THANK YOU!
The Augusta Civic Center would like to acknowledge and thank the countless people that made this memorable event a reality - from our sponsors and our staff, to the social media sharers and the costume wearers.
While we didn’t break the world record, our community had a blast!
We created long-lasting memories, and we honored Elvis’ legacy in Maine.
