Spring Wilderness Trip Goes to Main for Sea Kayaking and Camping
This mod break, students embarked on the Spring Wilderness Trip — a sea kayaking and camping adventure in the New Meadow River region off the coast of Brunswick, Maine. The trip was split into two groups and began at Sawyer Park in West Bend, where students learned the basics of sea kayaking and camping before setting out in wetsuits through winds choppy waters. After a full day of paddling, the group reached their island campsites and enjoyed a cozy bonfire. The next day was filled with more exploration by kayak, as students navigated the scenic coastal waterways.
On the final morning, the group woke up at 4 a.m. to catch a breathtaking sunrise through thick coastal fog. After packing up camp, they paddled back to Brunswick, where a well-earned diner breakfast awaited. The trip was a great success — filled with adventure, teamwork, and unforgettable moments. We hope to see even more students join us for the next wilderness experience!
