Merrymeeting

Yes, it will indeed be a merry meeting of new students as you explore Merrymeeting Bay on this classic canoeing orientation trip!

Join your fellow new students on this canoeing orientation trip. Navigate the tidal waters of Merrymeeting Bay via canoe to make it to your basecamp on Swan Island. Spend your days exploring the island by foot and by boat before returning to camp each night for delicious dinners and socializing with your peers around a campfire. 

No experience necessary, but participants should have some comfort swimming.
