Check out our calendar of programs, trainings, clinics, virtual activities, and more below!
Program update – May 28, 2020
Though we initially planned to reconvene in-person programs for June, in order to ensure YOUR safety and the safety of our coaches, we have made the very difficult decision to postpone in-person activities until July. Thank you for bearing with us as we navigate these difficult times.
We are excited to rollout our summer calendar over the next few weeks! It will include local hiking adventures, paddling excursions, mountain bike rides, and more! New this year, we’ll also be leading multi-day trips to Maine destinations—and we hope you’ll plan to join in on the fun! We can’t wait to share our plans with you!
In the meantime, please like and follow the Skowhegan AmeriCorps Outdoor Recreation Program Facebook Page for the latest updates and access to all digital content, including a camp cooking video series (coming soon!), nature meditation videos, a virtual outdoor-themed book club, fitness challenges, tutorial videos (like how to stand-up paddleboard), and Animal Pen Pals!

Snowshoe Scavenger Hunt
January 11, 2020 @ 10:00 am - 11:30 am
Join us for a scavenger hunt along the Debe River Walk and the Philbrick Trails. We will be going for a walk (about 1.5 miles) and exploring nature along the way. This is a fun and adventurous way to get outside with your family! Friendly dogs are welcomed, but please do not forget poop bags! Be sure to bring your water and snowshoes! If you need a pair of snowshoes, please fill out this form by January 9th.
Get directions to the location here.
