Hog Island Audubon Center Open House
bring a picnic lunch!
On July 22 Maine Audubon will
host a free open house at Hog Island
Audubon Center in Bremen.
Members, guests and the public are
invited to the island, which normally is accessible only by private
boat, any time between 9 a.m.–4 p.m. to explore the trails to
see wildlife on Muscongus Bay, and tour the historic camp’s restored
19th-century buildings.
Boat transportation to and
from the island will be available all day.
"This is a rare opportunity
to explore Hog Island--a spectacular place where people have connected
with nature for 70 years," said Seth Benz, director of Hog Island
Audubon Center.
Since 1936, thousands of adults, educators, young people, and families
have explored Maine nature at the camp through residential summer
sessions led by expert naturalists.
Reservations are not necessary.
For more information, call (207) 781-2330.
