According to Ann Dreslinski the closeout sale was complete and successful. Reflections was an offshoot from the former Orono Showcase Co-operative with Debbie Bourne and Ann Dreslinski Dreslinski expanding into their own business in giftware on the Main Street. Bourne left the business upon moving to Reaboro. According to Dreslinski no one could have had so much fun and made so many friends as they have through the store.
