When: Friday and Saturday, November 1 & 2, 2013 beginning at noon on November 1 and ending at 2:30 p.m. on November 2
Where: Meet at the Gauge Road/Poplar trailhead no later than noon on Friday, November 1st. The trailhead is in Carrabassett Valley about 20 minutes from Kingfield. For detailed directions, please see our website at www.mainehuts.org. We will carpool to the trailhead which is a gentle ¾ mile walk on a wooded trail to the hut.
Who should attend and why:
Teams of three from one school or school district must include a
teacher, an administrator, and a community leader. Schools across Maine
use the outdoors as a learning environment with trails and outdoor
classrooms. Many other schools are interested in doing so. With thanks
to National PLT and the Davis Family Foundation, we are offering this
how-to experience with professional trail crews, a forester and
experienced School Forest teachers.
Cost:
$75/team includes an overnight at Poplar Stream Falls Hut, dinner on
November 1 with breakfast and lunch on November 2, 2013. Please contact
Pat Maloney at meplt@gwi.net
or 626 7990 for registration information. This opportunity will be
offered on a first come first served basis for seven Maine teams.
