Merryspring kicks off its 9-part Tuesday Brown Bag Winter Talk Series at noon on January 13 at the Ross Center with "Winter Camping and Travel," presented by Stephen Leavins.

Leavins, Director of Maine Sport's Outdoor Adventures Program, is a Registered Maine Guide and a member of the Professional Climbing Instructor's Association. His resume includes mountaineering and winter camping in New England, Ecuador, Chile, Argentina and Nepal, and he regularly leads climbing and mountaineering trips in the White Mountains and Baxter State Park.

Whether you are a novice or experienced camper, you are sure to gain useful information and have your questions answered.

Merryspring members and all children attend talks free, and there is a charge of $5 for non-members.

Merryspring is a member-supported, non-profit nature education center and park located at the end of Conway Road just off Rt. 1 by the Hannaford shopping plaza in Camden. For more information, call Merryspring at 236-2239.
