Presentation- My Favorite Places in Maine

Eliza Townsend, Commissioner of the Maine Department of Conservation, will talk on October 28 in Bangor about her favorite state parks and other special places in Maine and what we need to do to protect and maintain them. The Commissioner will focus on the special places of Maine that are highly valued by AMC members and others who enjoy the natural world. “It is these unique natural places that provide opportunities to more deeply reflect on our place in the natural world and our responsibilities to make these places accessible to future generations,” said Carrie Walia, AMC Maine Chapter Chair. “Many of us feel rejuvenated by simply enjoying our time in nature and that’s what the state park system offers.” The Commissioner’s talk will be on October 28 at 6:30PM in the second floor meeting room of the Bangor Public Library, 145 Harlow Street, Bangor, ME, 04401. The talk is free and open to the public. For more information, download a PDF flyer (228 KB) or contact John Mullens. Her talk is expected to be similar to her address to the AMC in Brunswick last week.
