The Teens To Trails organization was especially pleased to be the recipient of proceeds from the Benefit Supper held at the Congregational Church of Edgecomb last Saturday, June 15.

"Though we are a statewide initiative reaching teenagers across the State, Teens To Trails was initially conceived by a group of volunteers right here in Edgecomb,” said Carol Leone, Founder of Teens To Trails. “It feels good to have such caring support from our own hometown.”

Along with a wonderful meal, participants watched a short video of teens relaying the reasons how their Outing Club experiences have benefited them and why outdoor adventures are important to young people growing up.

Teens To Trails is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit engaging Maine teens in the outdoors. T3’s goal is to establish an Outing Club in every Maine high school community, thereby promoting fun outdoor adventures, healthy lifestyles and environmental stewardship.
