The pandemic has generated new interest in outdoor recreation as a safe and healthy activity for people of all ages and abilities and the Maine West area is rich with opportunities – often on lands protected by local land trusts and other groups.
By promoting outdoor recreation and active lifestyles, Maine West partners seek to improve local health outcomes, encourage youth and school groups to get outside and exercise, connect people with local conservation lands, and position rural communities as attractive places to live and raise families. Maine West programs promote public participation in healthy outdoor activities – getting people outside, and provide technical and financial support for local Conservation and Trail Development. |
