October 7, 6:30 – 8:30
Casco Bay Trail Alliance
Imagine a 72-mile off-road trail that links Portland, Lewiston-Auburn, and Brunswick, Maine.
The mission of the Casco Bay Trail Alliance is to plan and support a multi-use trail loop through the communities of Auburn, Brunswick, Cumberland, Durham, Falmouth, Freeport, Lewiston, Lisbon, New Gloucester, North Yarmouth, Portland, Pownal, Topsham, and Yarmouth.
When completed, this continuous off-road corridor will be an incredible community resource, providing a safe active transportation corridor, promoting public health, and helping to reduce emissions and protect the environment.
Emma Bond is the Secretary and Co-Chair of the Board of the Casco Bay Trail Alliance. She lives in Portland’s East Deering neighborhood, close to the southern terminus of the Casco Bay Trail. One of her favorite pursuits is exploring trails throughout Maine with her husband and dog, and she looks forward to traveling on the Casco Bay Trail to points north of Portland.
Meeting begins at 7:00. Come at 6:30 or so to socialize, meet new people, and find out about MOAC.
Location: the Allen Avenue Unitarian Universalist Church, 524 Allen Avenue, Portland (near Northgate Shopping Plaza). Here’s a Google Map link.
