6th Grade Students Win 2018 Teddy Roosevelt Maine Conservation Award

Posted on

Letter from the Chair of the Teddy Roosevelt Maine Conservation Award Committee

Loranger Memorial School’s “Sixth Grade Science Students” have been nominated for the 2018 “Teddy Roosevelt Maine Conservation Award” and I am happy to say that our Board is very pleased to recognize your program with this award. The program was nominated by Meggie Harvey, Molly Auclair, and Christine Voyer of the Gulf of Maine Research Institute, with additional support from Meagan Sims, Maine Healthy Beaches Program Coordinator.

We invite you, or another representative should you be unavailable, and two of your students, to receive the award in person at our next “Roundtable” event, which will be held at Unity College, in Unity, on April 13, 2018.
We especially ask that the youths might say a few words about the program and what it meant to them.
I hope you will be able to join us on that date, and to hear the Roundtable presentation “A Celebration of Youth in the Maine Outdoors,” and join other Roundtable participants for an informal lunch.
With sincere pleasure,
John Rust
