‘Day in the Life’ series concludes with Maine Guides Slater, Mahoney

BETHEL — The Mahoosuc Land Trust announces a bonus event in the 2018 “Day in the Life” speaker series. On Wednesday, Oct. 24, Kevin Slater and Polly Mahoney will share a Day in the Life of a Maine Guide.
Their presentation will be at 7 p.m. at McLaughlin Auditorium on the Gould Academy campus.

Mahoney and Slater have been partners in Mahoosuc Guide Service for 29 years. In the cycle of each year, they offer two main activities: wilderness canoe trips in spring, summer and fall and dogsled trips in the winter with their 34 dogs.
In addition, Slater makes canoes, paddles, and dogsleds while Mahoney organizes the supplies and meals for the trips. Although their lives are busy, spending time in beautiful places and sharing the natural world with both people and dogs makes for a rich and abundant life.
This event concludes the Land Trust’s 2018 speaker series. The Mahoosuc Land Trust serves the communities surrounding the Mahoosuc Mountains and has the mission of protecting and conserving land and traditional land uses. Learn more at www.mahoosuc.org.
