We had an all-star cast of guests at our zoom meeting. Cathy Lane (lower right) briefed us on the Bethel Mural Project, an initiative of Bethel Area Arts & Music (BAAM) which is happening later this spring and early summer at the Gem Theater. It is a collaboration between BAAM, SAD #44 middle school and Northstar students, Rotary and several other funders. We then heard from Gabe Perkins, ED of Inland Woods + Trails, Kirk Siegel, ED of Mahoosuc Land Trust and Deb Maxfield of Maine Adaptive, about their collaboration with the Town of Bethel on the Bethel Pathway universally accessible trail extension from the BIG Adventure Center to the Valentine Farm Conservation Center. Rotary provided the project a $30,000 donation in honor of Jim Monahan.

We also welcomed Evan LeConey, a freshman at U Maine Orono, who was one of our June 2020 scholarship recipients. Submitted photos
