He also covered Bath Iron Works, the Brunswick Naval Air Station, Bowdoin College, and the Maine Yankee Nuclear Power Plant during his years in Brunswick. When he’s not hunting down criminals, politicians or law enforcement officials, Dennis enjoys spending time riding his bicycle, hiking, and cross country skiing.
