Messalonskee Lake is a wonderful natural resource of the mid-Maine region and offers numerous recreational and conservation activities. If you have always wanted to learn to kayak or explore the lake’s ecology, this class will offer a free kayak lesson and provide all equipment needed, 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, sunglasses or polarized glasses, sunscreen, and hat are also helpful and appropriate. Do be prepared with extra clothes just in case you get wet. Must be 17 to register. If needed, a Rain Date will be announced. Limit 8 students.
