The Midcoast Community Chorus began in 2005 when a group of more than 130 community members and local musicians were gathered to perform Paul Winter’s Missa Gaia in celebration of Earth Day.

The KCHC Prescription Assistance Program (known as "PAP") has obtained over one million dollars worth of medications for patients in our community! The prescription program, which was started less than three years ago, has helped patients obtain free medicine directly from pharmaceutical companies. Most pharmaceutical companies have programs to provide medications free of charge to qualified individuals who do not have insurance that covers their medication. However, the application process can be too onerous for patients and too time-consuming for doctors' offices. That's where the Knox County Health Clinic comes in. Prescription Assistance Program Coordinator Dana Coleman expertly does the necesary paper work so that medications can be obtained directly from the pharmaceutical companies. Anyone who meets the financial guidelines can use this KCHC service - one need not be a patient of the Knox County Health Clinic. June 15, 2006:
