Walk-ins are not guaranteed a seat, but we'll absolutely do our best to squeeze you in, if we can. If you are making a reservation for your team, please account for all the members of your team. Groups can be up to six players. Bite Into Maine will be here for all of your tasty dinner or snacking needs. As always we’ll have delicious beer, wine, cider, and n/a bevs flowing.

Join us for a guided sunrise paddle outing, and watch the natural world start the day. Wildlife are particularly active in the dawn hours, so we may see beaver, muskrat, eagles, and deer on our journey. This is a great paddle for birders!
This paddle will be held flotilla-style with canoes and kayaks. You may use one of our boats, or bring your own. We will move slowly as a group, allowing time for photos, viewing with binoculars, and generally admiring the view. Beginners welcome.

Maine Youth Leadership is a 4-day seminar focused on enhancing leadership skills, volunteerism, and character for high school sophomores in Maine. Since 1980, Maine Youth Leadership (MYL) has worked with Maine youth to seek out, recognize, and develop their leadership skills. Our goal is to motivate Maine’s future leaders and create a network of civic-minded students who will better their communities through volunteering. Our programs encourage and assist students at critical times in their quest for self-identification and development and we provide give-and-take discussions with thought leaders and role models from across Maine society.
