The John Bapst Outing Club, advised by Ben Hale ’99, was chosen to receive a grant of $425 from the T3 Teens To Trails program of the Association of Maine Outing Clubs. The Outing Club will use the funds to cover transportation to different events such as skiing at Sugarloaf Mountain and rafting the Kennebec as well as purchase some stoves, tents, and other basic camping for the club. The grant also includes full membership in the Association of Maine Outing Clubs which makes the group eligible for T3 Trip Lotteries, discounts to purchase supplies, and trip-planning resources.
