SUMMARY:Baxter State Park camping trip in bunkhouse with wood stove
DESCRIPTION:MOAC has an entire bunkhouse at the South Branch Campground in the North end of the Baxter State Park for three peaceful nights. The bunk house has two rooms of bunks and sleeps up to eight people- four in each room. There is a wood stove to keep us warm and a picnic table in a common area. Wood is provided by the park for the wood stove. There is a large picnic table and fire pit outside the cabin. Wood is available for the campfire at $5 a bundle\, cash.  No outside wood is allowed. So please bring a little cash to contribute to the wood pile. \nThe cost is $45 for the 3 nights\, which pays for the bunkhouse. You will need to provide your own camping mattress/ sleeping pad and sleeping bag\, pillow etc. \nThere are also tenting spots and lean-tos available at the campground that you can book at https://reservation.baxterstatepark.org/reserve \nSome hikes will be arranged but feel free to do you own thing\, whether that be to sit by the lake and enjoy the solitude\, rent a canoe at $1 an hour or 8 dollars at day cash at the ranger station\, or do a different hike or bike. \nOnce I get details arranged\, to guarantee your spot\, the camping fee must be paid ahead of time. Refunds will not be given but you are welcome to find someone to take  your spot. I will try to help you and hopefully I will have a waiting list. I’ve paid the camping fees ahead of time to the park and do not want to pay for no shows. \nWe will have campfires and at least one potluck. \nNote: Baxter State Park is primitive camping. There are clean privies with TP supplied by the park. There are no showers or running water. You  will need to bring your own water\, or filter  or boil water from ponds\, lakes and streams. \nWe can also arrange car pooling.

SUMMARY:MH&T’s Flagstaff Hut Weekend - Now taking reservations
DESCRIPTION:NOW TAKING RESERVATIONS! \nCost for the weekend is $180 per person. \nPayment can be via Venmo (@Peter-Mullen-12) \nOr mail checks to: Peter Mullen – 38 Lawrence Rd – Gray – ME – 04039 \nTo sign up: https://forms.gle/FHAd6VfWnLuS94Q19 \nJoin us for the 13th annual Maine Huts & Trails weekend. MH&T’s operates four “ecolodges” along their network of trails in the Bigelows\, Flagstaff Lake\, and the Dead River. For this weekend\, Flagstaff Hut\, on the eastern shore of the lake is all ours. \nIt’s far more than a “hut”. A full commercial kitchen\, hot water\, showers\, electricity\, composting toilets\, etc. Sleeping is bunk room style (earplugs). This “hut” has a capacity of 48. We hope to limit it to 40 or so. \nActivities can include hiking\, mountain biking\, paddling (boats and gear provided)\, swimming\, or doing nothing. It will be late October. We might have music if the right people sign up. \nYou must walk in. From the parking lot\, it is 1.5 miles on a service road or two miles on actual hiking trails (for the full experience). Gear shuttle provided if you can get there by a certain time on Friday and possibly later. This would mean leaving your gear in a building at the parking lot and it will be delivered in (and out) so you only have to walk. \nYou only need to bring clothes (slippers or something for inside the hut)\, sleeping bag/bedding\, pillow case\, personal items\, earplugs\, and food as described below. You DO NOT need to bring anything to cook with or to eat on. Refrigeration is available but limited. You will have access to the kitchen. \nThe way the food works\, you provide your own food for Friday\, Saturday morning and noon. You will be asked to bring a “slice” of Saturday night’s dinner which all the “slices” will be combined for a fantastic feed. This year’s Saturday evening menu will be a repeat of our well-received Friendsgiving Feast (turkey and all the trimmings). On Sunday morning a portion of your payment for the weekend will provide a full spread breakfast. Pancakes\, frittata\, bacon\, sausage\, fruit\, granola\, yogurt\, etc. Vegetarian? Vegan? We have options for everyone. Coffee and tea and hot chocolate provided at least in the morning. Potable water available anytime. You will need to bring any other beverages you desire. BYOB for alcohol. \nQuestions? Click on the EMAIL ORGANIZER button below.

SUMMARY:Take Pride in Acadia Day\, 2026 - Updated
DESCRIPTION:Updated to include Google Forms link to sign up. \nTake Pride in Acadia Day \n \n  \nFor 35 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. \nPlease sign up through us. Please do not sign up through Friends of Acadia. We will supply Friends with a list of names as the registration window closes to ensure we stay together as a group. \nTo sign up: https://forms.gle/XyAKMhVdXXgSJuoA6 \nThere is no cost for the event itself. If you choose to stay over\, you will need to find your own lodging. I will be 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.
