Happy Wanderers Guided Hike: July
with Community Health and Coastal Mountains Land Trust, MaineHealth Pen Bay Hospital and Waldo Hospital Events
Join members from the MaineHealth Center for Health Improvement Community Health department at Pen Bay and Waldo Hospitals in partnership with Coastal Mountains Land Trust to get outdoors and stay active with guided hikes year-round.
This Happy Wanderers Hike takes place at Harkness Preserve in Rockport.
All are welcome! This hike explores a 1-mile loop trail with minimal elevation that is suitable for young families. We consider it one of our more gentle walking trails although there are roots on the trail. Hiking boots and plenty of water are encouraged.
Contact Leah Trommer at leaht@coastalmountains.org with questions.
Register and receive updates about the event.
This group meets at trailheads throughout Knox and Waldo counties, usually on the first Thursday of each month.
Understanding Breastfeeding

Our classes reflect Lincoln Hospital's dedication to our philosophy of family-centered care. Classes are taught by an Internationally Board Certified Lactation Consultant from the family birth center who will bring her knowledge and experience to her teaching. We will review how milk is made, why breastfeeding is so important, feeding cues and positions and so much more. We use short videos and discussion to ensure you and your baby are off to a great start! Also covered is prenatal colostrum harvesting as well as hand expression, pumping and storage of breastmilk. The class is informal and allows for open discussion. Please call the Lincoln Hospital Family Birth Center for questions at: 207.563.4536
