Students invited to apply for free summer Maine Youth Wilderness Leadership Program

Participants will spend nine days backpacking from one end of Baxter State Park to the other while studying wilderness through science, art, storytelling, photography, writing and history. They will climb Mount Katahdin, volunteer with a ranger, and paint with a professional artist. The group will be led by experienced educators from the Chewonki Foundation. All program costs are paid by Friends of Baxter State Park.
