Mid-Maine Regional Adult Community Education

Messalonskee Lake and Steam is a wonderful natural resource for the mid-Maine region and offers numerous recreational and conservation activities.  If you have always wanted to learn to kayak and explore the lake’s ecology, this class will offer a free kayak lesson and will provide all equipment needed.  Identification of flora and fauna in the lake and stream will be taught followed by a kayak paddle near shore to find various specimens.  

Prerequisite:  know the basics of how to swim, but we will be staying close to shore.   Please wear water shoes; a bathing suit or shorts are appropriate.  And do be prepared with extra clothes-you may get wet.  

Meet at the Rt 27 Boat Launch at Belgrade Stream-the south end of the lake (across from Loon Ridge Cottages and near Hammond Lumber) Limit 8 students. If needed, a Rain Date will be announced.
