Trek for the Trails a success!

The 2021 Trek for the Trails presented by Norway Savings Bank wrapped up on Sunday, October 3rd. Over $10,000 was raised from the event, including entry fees, pledges raised by participants, and business cash and in-kind sponsorships. The top individual fundraiser was John Keller, who raised over $1,600.

New for 2021 were three trail running routes - one at Pleasant Mountain, Bald Pate Mountain, and Raymond Community Forest. Other participants visited a LELT preserve, and many completed their 'trail passport' by visiting 4 different LELT preserves and finding the stamps for their passport at each one.

Trek for the Trails is Loon Echo Land Trust’s largest annual fundraising event. Funds raised from the Trek help Loon Echo steward over 8,000 acres of land and 30+ miles of trails in the Lake Region. The 2021 Trek for the Trails is generously sponsored by Norway Savings Bank, Shawnee Peak Maine, Maine Street Graphics, Inc., Minuteman Press, The Good Life Market, Squeaky Clean Laundromat, Kaylin Cook Art, Clement Bros. Lawn & Landscape, Jones & Mathews PA, Bridgton Books, Pleasant Mountain Camping Area, Canyon Wren Coaching, and Ski Hot Ski Shop.
