Natl-Park-WebsiteMapFinal-finalProponents of a plan to create a North Woods national park adjacent to Maine’s Baxter State Park are still working to make that plan a reality. And they’re hiring an outreach coordinator to help promote the plan among the public, according to an article on BangorDailyNews.com.

David Farmer, a spokesman for leading park advocate Lucas St. Clair and Katahdin Woods and Waters, said that the outreach coordinator position is “a continuation of what we have been working on.”

“That’s having one-on-one conversations with people,” Farmer said Tuesday. “We believe that when people have an opportunity to sit down and talk about the park and have their questions answered, that they are likely to support the park.”
