NREC Moosehead

NEW PROGRAM ALERT! This is NREC Moosehead's first foray into an overnight adventure program for local rural Piscataquis County High School students! Brainchild of our new Educator, Sarah Hubert; hiking, whitewater rafting with Northeast Whitewater, canoeing on Moosehead, camping, and packraft with packraftmaine!

By navigating the woods and water trails of the Moosehead Lake Region, participants develop resilience, teamwork, and self-reliance. A trip of a lifetime that these teens will always remember.

A comparable camp would normally be close to a grand but through volunteer grant writing by the board and members like YOU, we are offering this camp for only $200 for NREC members and $250 for nonmembers. Scholarships available, email [email protected] with questions.
