Blaine
Welcome to Blaine!
The town of Blaine, incorporated in 1874 and named after politician James G. Blaine, is one of Aroostook County’s great agricultural towns located right along the Canada-United States international border!
The town was originally named Alva, but, according to local history, “Blaine offered to donate a large bell for the tower of the town’s new meeting hall, if the citizens would rename the town after him. The town’s name was changed, but Blaine never donated a bell. The building still stands on the north end of town, on Route 1.” (Source)
