SUMMARY:Save Our Summits Hike
DESCRIPTION:Hike to one of Acadia’s iconic summits AND help Acadia National Park’s efforts to restore native vegetation! \nAcadia National Park\, in collaboration with Friends of Acadia and Schoodic Institute\, invites tenacious hikers to bring bags of soil to the summits of Penobscot and Sargent Mountains to be used for plant restoration. You’ll get to choose how much soil you’ll carry – carrying as little as five pounds (about the size of a large freezer ziplock bag) is a huge help!

SUMMARY:Underwater Opera Youth Theatre Camp
DESCRIPTION:Welcome to our “first ever” week-long Youth Theatre Camp. This camp is centered on Smithereen Farm and Greenhorns’ Reversing Hall Agrarian Library and led by a group of young and highly motivated theatre professionals from New York and California who share our ethos of bioregionalism\, self determination and youth empowerment. \nAt the heart of the camp is holistic\, uninhibited creativity. In the incredible marine and riverine habitats of our area\, children will find natural inspiration to create their own theatrical performance about the eco-system. Your child will learn creative skills by helping build an artistic community and immersing themselves in an environment of rivers and bays\, of seas and beaches\, barrens\, and bogs.\nGuided by instructors with backgrounds in theatre\, clowning\, and education\, your child will learn the basic elements of theatre through daily acting\, singing\, movement\, and improv classes. Each day will be filled with outdoor excursions in which your child will integrate their learning by singing to the trees and dancing with the water. The day camp will culminate in a final showcase for friends and family — a student-driven show that utilizes an incredible handpainted underwater backdrop created by the Artists’ Rapid Response Team during the www.ForAlltheFish.org campaign earlier this spring.\nAll are welcome to join us for the performance at the end: a youth-led tale of the marine heritage\, comedy/tragedy\, prospects and particularities of this place and moment in time. Amidst theatrical instruction and show development\, students will learn about the ecological history of their area through guided study at Greenhorns Agrarian Library. We’ll learn from atlases\, field guides\, indigenous accounts of encounters with settlers\, from wild food cookbooks\, as well as many other formats. We’ll focus on cod\, pollock\, alewives\, sardines\, clams… all will inspire the costumes and set design.\nWant to bring the whole family? We can help you find accommodations if needed. \nUnderwater Opera is designed for youth ages 7-13 and meets during the day only. Cost is $640 for the full week which includes lunch.

We meet the men who have dedicated themselves as rangers\, risking everything to defend wildlife from poaching. We listen to Maasai lion guardians\, once lion hunters\, now protectors who honor their ancestral bond to the land by safeguarding both people and predators. And we are given a glimpse into the lives of Samburu women\, whose ancestral beadwork carries the stories of their identity\, faith\, and deep connection to nature. Together\, their testimonies become a call to protect the earth—a reminder that conservation is\, at its root\, not only about saving animals\, but about honoring the sacred connection between people\, land\, and all living beings. \nADAPT | 6.2 minutes | by Jordan Drew | from: United States | Short synopsis: After a lifetime of competing in high-level sports\, the path of Shelby Estocado took a dramatic turn following a snowboarding accident where she suffered a spinal cord injury in 2020.

Drawing on her background in traditional athletics\, Shelby channels her competitive drive into adaptive sports while also bringing awareness to the adaptive community. \nJAPAN TO JAMAICA | 12 minutes | by RC Cone | from: United States | Short synopsis: In his pursuit of unearthing little-heard Jamaican music\, Naoki ventured far from his home in Tokyo. A one-of-a-kind reggae researcher\, he took on a vital role of documenting rare music for the public. Naoki then discovered another icon of Jamaican culture: tarpon fishing. It uncovered a new connection with the island and transformed his experience of Jamaica. \nTHE PROVING GROUND | 14.15 minutes | by Josh Bogardus\, Dan Dunn | from: United States | Short synopsis: Every ski season\, Mount Washington sees an average of 25 life-threatening sliding falls.

Native to the Klamath intertwines environmental restoration\, reconciliation ecology\, social justice\, and traditional ecological knowledge. Hear the story of this river renewal through the words of the Klamath River peoples who live by the sacred obligation of stewardship. \nWHERE THE WIND GOES | 7 minutes | by Everett Ravens | from: United States | Short synopsis: In the heart of New York City\, master model-sailboat designer Jon Elmaleh navigates the unpredictable winds of Central Park\, discovering how the same forces that move his boats also shape his life. Blending documentary intimacy with cinematic imagery\, Where the Wind Goes captures a uniquely New York story\, part character study\, part philosophical reflection\, about growth\, craft\, and adapting in an ever-changing world. \nLOBSTER QUEEN | 23.6 minutes | by Alix Buck | from: Canada | Short synopsis: They say women are bad luck on a boat. Captain Gail Atkinson never gave a damn.

As she grapples with identity\, loneliness\, and legacy\, Gail finds unexpected purpose providing others the very opportunities that she was once denied.
