Join us for this memorable weekend at Maine Audubon's Borestone Sanctuary in Elliotsville Plantation near Greenville, Maine from September 14-16. Close out your summer with an exquisite weekend of peace and quiet at this private, historic lodge in the mountains of Maine with hiking, daily meditation, extended silence, great food and ample R&R. The retreat starts with a ride or hike up to the Borestone boat launch where you will take a small motor boat across Sunrise and Noonday ponds to the Lodge. Accomodations are twin or double beds in a very comfortable camp-style setting. Some years have been warm enough to swim in the magical, pristine, fish free ponds. Other years we've bundled up and watched crystal clear skies chock full of stars. With a chill, we light a blazing fire. The retreat includes all meals (a delicious vegetarian menu, no alchohol), meditation instruction, 3 meditation "sits" daily, hiking options, canoes and a blanket of peace and quiet to nurture your soul and spirit all weekend. We share silence from Friday evening through Sunday morning creating a space for each individual to dive into their own retreat while sharing the beauty and feast for the senses.
