February was all about getting outside and connecting with each other. Thanks to everyone who joined us to ski, snowshoe, and track. Lots of gratitude to all the partners and volunteers who made these events possible: Maine Association of New Americans #WEOUTSIDE program, Veterans Adaptive Sports & Training, Five Fields Farm, Highland Ridge Ski trails, AARP Maine, Maine Master Naturalist volunteers Leigh and Dawn, and the Town of Casco's Open Space Commission and Safe Streets Committee.
Access to outdoor activities in general, and especially in the winter, requires a lot of gear and knowledge. Connecting folks to new activities, new places, and new people is a crucial part of our mission, brings us a whole lot of joy, and is more important than ever before.
