Outreach
Conferences & Workshops
Project SHARE has spearheaded many educational workshops in Downeast and central Maine. Many of the workshops pertain to the restoration of Atlantic salmon and others have brought large landowners together with state and federal agencies to discuss viable restoration options that will help to bring the numbers of salmon back to Maine.
Quarterly Meetings
Beginning in 2007, there will be 4 SHARE membership meetings rather than 6. Meetings will be held the 2nd Thursday of March, June, September, and December starting at 9:30 am with a break for noon meal. The membership meets at the Hillgrove Community Center in Whitneyville, Maine. Lunch is provided by the Center with a $5 donation.
