Employees from two closed paper mills in Jay were presented Friday with the Spirit of America Award by Jay selectmen outside Maine’s Paper & Heritage Museum. “The paper mill workers have made Jay the community that it is today,” said Jay Town Manager Shiloh LaFreniere. Pixelle Specialty Solutions’ Androscoggin Mill closed March 6 and the Otis Specialty Papers Mill closed in 2009.
