WINTHROP — Many of the Kennebec Land Trust’s 1,100 members will attend the trust’s annual meeting and celebration on Sunday, Aug. 22, which will be held outside at Camp Winnebago in Fayette.

• a bring-your-own picnic lunch;
• a raffle of a painting of KLT’s Wakefield Cabins (featured on Maine Cabin Masters);
