Welcome! The Great Cranberry Futures Group is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization created to support year-round and seasonal residents of Great Cranberry Island, Maine. The island is located off the coast of Mt Desert Island, home of beautiful Acadia National Park.
Our primary services include operating the island’s gas pump and maintaining a free gym facility and medical storeroom for the benefit of residents. In addition, this website serves as an informational hub for locals and visitors to Great Cranberry, with an overview of island organizations, practical information on transportation and other critical services, links to the Town of Cranberry Isles municipal website, and a public Community Calendar.
EXCITING NEWS!
The installation of GCI's new self-serve gas pump is scheduled for October 30th. We will hope for good weather and a smooth process, and will post another update if anything changes.
In the meantime, please continue to get your gas during Transfer Station hours on Mondays & Thursdays.
As we head into the Thanksgiving season, we remain grateful to our island community and proud of the fact that over 70 households contributed gifts large and small to make this vital infrastructure upgrade happen.
