It’s Winterfest time. MOAC’s winter social.

Join your fellow members for a day of nordic skiing, snow shoeing, good food, camaraderie, and just all-out fun.

We have a new venue this year, Five Fields Farm in Bridgton. Being further away from the coast will help ensure good conditions for a day on the trails.

Details are still being finalized but a traditional Winterfest includes:

Scheduled skiing and shoeing events
Pot Luck
Soup/chowder competition
Campfire
Music
Laughs

Check here often for updates as well as the MOAC newsletter. The club is always looking for help. We will need setup/take down help, trip leaders, and organizers. Please email the Board if you would like to help.

ANNOUNCEMENTS

June BBQ – Volunteer recognition

On the first Wednesday of each month we gather. June is different. June is when we celebrate what MOAC is, what MOAC does, and most importantly, who makes MOAC work.

How is June different? First off, we start at 6. Second, we do not have a presentation like the other 11 months. In June, we crank up the grills and do what MOAC does so well.....eat.

Then we recognize those that make the club work. We might sing some songs. We might have a table to buy/sell/trade gear. We might have a hot tub in a canoe.

Keep an eye out for details. June 5th. But remember, June is different.
Our May Meeting – Varvara Harmon

The “Mountains Are Calling” presentation is about all aspects of the hiking journey.

It is dedicated to the beauty of nature, mountains, woods, rivers, small brooks and waterfalls. It is about the amazing experience of being at the top of the mountains above the clouds on a downcast day or seeing as far as you can on a clear bluebird day! Also it is about the wonderful journey itself, seeing the beauty of nature and the fun meeting so many enthusiastic people!

I consider myself as a hiking artist and “Mountains Are Calling” is a collaboration of two of my favorite things: love for the mountains and love for the art! I have been working on this series for the past few years and you are the first ones to see it!
Volunteers Needed
MOAC is a 100% volunteer organization. Things only happen if people step up to do them. MOAC needs:
Keeper Of The Inventory - MOAC doesn't own much but we need someone to keep what we do have under control. Mostly consumables we use at events (paper products, plastic silverware, etc).

Monthly Meeting Recorder - It's sorta like the minutes of a board meeting, but much less formal. A lot happens at a monthly meeting and to have someone take notes helps the club a lot.

Please email board@moac.org if you are interested in helping out. MOAC only works because volunteers decide to make it happen!
