Mike Mandell Leaving Ellsworth American and MDI Islander

After 5 years as the Sports Editor at the Ellsworth American and Mount Desert Islander Mike Mandell is moving on, and heading to central Maine after covering sports in Downeast Maine.

He will be leaving his position on April 20th

Covering a territory that spans from Deer Isle Stonington to Jonesport Beals is a daunting task, especially when high schools play at the same time. Everyone has hopes and expectations that their event will be covered with photos and more, and when you're a 1-man shop, it's almost impossible, but Mike did an admirable job!

We wish him the best of luck in the future!
