SUMMARY:Night sky adventure stay for seniors at AMC Medawisla Lodge and Cabins
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a 3 nights getaway in the middle of Maine at AMC’s Medawisla Lodge and Cabins in the Maine Woods Initiative area geared to seniors but open to all. We have timed our stay to take advantage of dark skies to enjoy a sky full of stars without having to stay up late. Whether you enjoy easier trails in the woods\, climbing mountains\, off road biking or paddling\, you can find something to do here. However\, you can also just enjoy sitting on the porch at the lodge or down at the lake. Bring your own kayak or canoe or use one available there. \nWe are holding the Meadow Bunkhouse with 16 bunk beds\, a 2 bedroom cabin with 1 queen and 2 twins\, and a 2 bedroom cabin with private facilities with 1 queen\, 1 double and 1 twin (held for the group until 8/1/2025 – after that time it will be open for general reservations). Before you register\, please contact Michelle Moody to get price information in case there are any price changes. Price for the bunkhouse as of 6/21/2025 was $238.71 per person including tax based on extended stay for 3 nights with an AMC membership.  Prices are not guaranteed until booked. Non-member rates are higher. Cabin prices will vary based on how many share a cabin. All meals are included from dinner our first night to a packed lunch on the last day. We will also have an appetizer get together each evening if enough folks are booked for a group. Be sure to check out Medawisla to see all that is has to offer with this link. https://www.outdoors.org/destinations/maine/medawisla-lodge/ \nTo register for the event use this link – https://activities.outdoors.org/s/oc-activity/a5UUN000000uYmz2AE/act00012293 \nIf you have any questions prior to registering\, please contact Michelle at meamc@micstan.us.

SUMMARY:Hike Libby Hill in Gray and joyful hour
DESCRIPTION:It will be cooler (supposedly) on Saturday so please join me for a hike on the Libby Hill Forest trails in Gray.  They’re near the schools across from Hannaford\, off Route 26.   I plan on a hike of about an hour and a half.  There are a variety of trails with various difficulty and we’ll see which ones the group wants to do.  Mostly conversational pace\, but we’ll keep moving.  We can split the group if some want or need a slower pace or shorter\, easier trail.  It’s been a while since I’ve been there\, but the trails were generally well marked. \nYou can see the trails here:  https://libbyhill.org/trail-maps/ \nFor those willing and able we’ll head to camp (about 10 minutes away) to eat\, drink and be merry.  The happy hour committee doesn’t like others to use the term happy hour on so as not to confuse things with the “official” club happy hour.  🙂  I will probably not do the grill\, but will bring a sandwich or something.  BYO your own food and drinks.  Folks are welcome to just come to camp later if they don’t want to do the hike.  I expect to be there by 4:30-ish. \nPlan to arrive so we can be on the trail at 2:30. \nShow and go.  No dogs please.  And no ferrets.  You can text 207.807.2729 with questions

SUMMARY:Cancelled:  Hike Sugarloaf and Spaulding mountains
DESCRIPTION:Have to cancel\, something has come up. \nHike Sugarloaf and Spaulding \nThis is not a hike for beginners!  Ideally you will have had experience hiking other 4000 foot peaks.  I will be shooting to hike at a pace of 35 minutes per mile.  I know there are people in this group who can manage that pace\, as I have hiked with you when Anne was still leading MOAC hikes.  If you cannot maintain that pace\, you will be left behind the lead group.  Please email me with your hiking experience\,  not a show-and-go trip. \nThis should be a 9.5 mile trip.  4000 feet elevation gain.  Following this route:  https://www.alltrails.com/trail/us/maine/spaulding-mountain-via-sugarloaf-ski-resort-and-appalachian-trail \n8:30 boots on trail

SUMMARY:Take Pride in Acadia Day\, 2025 - Rescheduled to 11/9
DESCRIPTION:Due to the government shutdown\, TPIAD has been moved to Sunday\, November 9. If the government is still shutdown on November 3rd\, the event will be cancelled. \nTammy and I cannot attend on the 9th\, so there will be no official MOAC group this year. If you would like to participate as an individual\, please sign up here: \nTake Pride in Acadia Day \n \nYou will be assigned to random groups. \nI have left the original information from the event below. \n———————— \nFor 34 years\, volunteers have gathered on the first Saturday of November to help ready the famous carriage roads for winter. Sponsored by Friends of Acadia\, teams are assigned troublesome sections of carriage roads where erosion can cause damage over the winter. The task? Rake the leaves and debris off the shoulders and into the woods. MOAC has had members at this event for many years. We have a team that will work together. \nMost who sign up make it a weekend\, but that is not required. The actual commitment to the park is from roughly 8:30 am to noon on Saturday. If you choose to make it a weekend\, the rest of the time is yours. \nThere is no cost to the event itself. If you choose to stay over\, you will need to find your own lodging. Tam and I are staying at the Bar Harbor Grand Hotel\, right in downtown and that has been the hotel of choice for the most part for a few years now. But\, you can do as you wish in this regard. The Grand offers a free breakfast. Local restaurants for the rest. \nExcept for the provided lunch after the work Saturday. After our work commitment is done\, we can head over to the Hulls Cove Visitors Center for a “CCC” lunch. Chili\, cornbread\, and cider.  Aside from the ingredients\, it’s named to honor the Civilian Conservation Corp\, who did a lot of work in Acadia.

SUMMARY:Full moon hike on Pisgah Hill
DESCRIPTION:Update:  This event is still on schedule for RRCT.  However\, something has come up for me personally so I will not be attending. \nHello\, this is an annual event hosted by Royal River Conservation Trust.  It’s a relatively short hike\, a little steep in spots – 1.2 miles round trip.  They have a fire at the summit and hot chocolate and s’mores. \nFrom their website: ” \nThe Pisgah Hill Preserve South Trailhead is at 74 Dougherty Road\, New Gloucester (In Pownal\, Dougherty Road is known as Chadsey Road).  Parking for this event is on the road shoulders of Dougherty Road\, on one side only.  We will place “no parking” signs on the other side of the road.” \nThe event runs from 4 to 7pm.  TRACTION IS HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.  The trail gets compacted and can be very icy.  Someone slipped on ice and (I think) broke a wrist a few years ago on the way down.  The trails are fairly well marked and most parts will have candles or lanterns\, plus there are generally a lot of people going up and down at various times.  And\, of course….dress warmly – it’s gonna be cold. \nThey appreciate people registering on their website\, but it’s not required.  It’s a free event.  See the link below.

SUMMARY:Memorial Day Weekend Camping in Bar Harbor - UPDATE!!
DESCRIPTION:As of 3/25/26\, Hadley’s lists 9 tent sites available and “plenty” of RV sites (water/electric/some with sewer). If you are interested in this trip\, please don’t wait too long. You also do NOT need to stay at Hadley’s. You are welcome to outdoor adventure with us and hang out for the evening/whenever festivities. \nLet’s keep a long-standing MOAC tradition alive by welcoming summer with a group campout on Mt. Desert Island. \nWe camped at Hadley’s Point CG last year and had a great time. Hadley’s Point is just off Route 3 as you head to Bar Harbor. It is 2.5 miles before Bar Harbor Campground. Holiday weekend prices appear to be: \n\nField tent sites are $37.00 per night\nWooded tent sites are $39.00 per night\nSites with water/electric are $54.00 per night\nThey even have cabins if you want to check those out\n\nThere appears to be a $3.25 campground fee\, plus tax of course. \nhttps://www.hadleyspoint.com/ \nTammy and I will reserve site C-37 (water and electric) and it is near to a pod of tent sites (13-20\, 30-36\, 40-42). We will also reserve C-36 to use as a home base for the group. We will ask attendees to help pay for this community site. If we get 25 people\, that will mean about $5 per person for the weekend. \nIf you choose to go\, please drop us a line at pcm25me@gmail.com so we know who to expect and what site you are in. You can also stay anywhere you like and come visit as well. \nYou do have to make your own reservations. Deposit amounts vary. For 1-2 nights\, it is the full balance. For 3 or more it is $100. Unfortunately\, they state there are no refunds for a holiday weekend. \nIt might be best to grab a site as soon as you can if you are interested. \nWe will continue the traditional experience of group happy hours and pot luck dinners in the evenings. Restaurants are also on the table. Activities during the day will be up to the group. Hiking\, biking\, paddling\, etc.
