SUMMARY:May General Meeting - The Maine Island Trail Association (MITA) with Molly Geiger
DESCRIPTION:Formed in 1988 (one year older than MOAC)\, the idea of a coastal water trail in Maine was born in the late 1970s following a land survey conducted by the State of Maine of the uninhabited coastal islands. As part of an evaluation between the State and the non-profit Island Institute in the mid-80’s\, Dave Getchell\, Sr.\, a founder of MITA\, explored the length of the coast and identified some 40 public islands suitable for recreational use. These public properties eventually formed the nucleus of the original Maine Island Trail. \nToday\, the trail itself has steadily grown to encompass the entire coast of Maine – from New Hampshire to Canada – and to include well over 200 islands and mainland sites. But it is not that simple. \nJoin us as Molly Geiger\, MITA Membership Manager\, give an overview of MITA’s history\, stewardship work\, and mission of providing access to Maine’s spectacular islands. You’ll learn more about how you can get involved in the MITA community\, whether through volunteer work\, events\, or by becoming a member. \n——————— \nMolly joined the MITA staff in fall 2019. A native Mainer\, she grew up in the Midcoast region\, exploring the islands and coastline from a young age. She received her BA in Anthropology from Bard College\, and has worked in the conservation and education fields since 2006\, including a several year stint at the Peggy Notebaert Nature Museum in Chicago. Molly got her first kayak as a teenager and has been an enthusiastic boater ever since. Most recently she is enjoying learning the challenges and joys of stand up paddle boarding on the Maine coast. \nJoin us on Zoom HERE.
