4-H Camp, Bethel ski center partner to promote outdoor activities, Sun Journal reports
The Sun Journal reported that Mahoosuc Pathways in Bethel is working to get people outside and active this winter. In November 2016, after learning the Nordic ski center at the Bethel Inn Resort was not going to open because the manager was leaving, local skiers, business owners and nonprofits rallied to create a plan to keep the center going, according to the article. Mahoosuc Pathways, with help from the Bethel Outing Club and the Bethel Inn Resort, purchased equipment and arranged for volunteers to operate the center under its new name, Bethel Village Trails, the article states. The center rents equipment and has partnered with School Administrative District 44 and the University of Maine 4-H Camp and Learning Center at Bryant Pond to offer students opportunities to get outside and enjoy the trails, Sun Journal reported.
