Friends of Katahdin Woods & Waters formed in 2017 and has since led transformative projects and programs in Katahdin Woods and Waters National Monument and local communities. New tent sites at Lunksoos campground, Tekαkαpimək Contact Station, wilderness adventures for youth, and nature-based lessons in area schools: sponsorships help unlock the potential of the Monument to build a brighter future for the Katahdin region.
Join the Friends community in 2026 to support the National Park Service, create inspiring programs for youth, and celebrate these woods, waters, and dark skies in the Monument, Katahdin region, and throughout Maine.
