June Community Week on Greens Island

Enjoy a week of community island service projects and rowing and sailing a Bantry Bay gig and other small craft while camping on Greens Island, Maine. This is an all-ages, intergenerational community program designed for those who wish to be part of a community in honing or learning new skills in a fun, supportive atmosphere! Children under 15 must be accompanied by an adult.

Our goal for this week is to work together as a community on and off the water. On the island, we will make the property we use even more beautiful, enjoyable, and functional. This will include light construction projects such as building a new wooden outhouse, maintaining trails, and cleaning up the beaches. On the water, we will row and sail our Bantry Bay gigs and other small craft in proximity to Greens Island. 

With guidance from Atlantic Challenge USA instructors, participants will be invited to rotate through a range roles throughout the week to keep our crew healthy and our boats well tended. 

Instruction, all meals, and safety equipment will be provided. We only have adult sized ones, so you will need to bring a child size one if accompanying a child.
