On Sunday, students will be participating in a field trip, please rank your preferences below.

Compass Harbor Walk -- Join COA students on a trek along the Compass Harbor trail. This relatively flat walk has beautiful views of Bar Harbor’s breakwater as well as a secluded rocky cove. We may also wander along the Shore Path and through downtown Bar Harbor before heading back to campus. Approximately four miles of walking, round trip. 

Peggy Rockefeller Farm Trip -  Spend a few hours visiting Peggy Rockefeller Farm, COA’s organic livestock farm. Tour the grounds and assist our farm manager in transplanting apple trees in our orchard. Be sure to bring sturdy shoes that you don't mind getting dirty. You may see some cute lambs during your visit! 

Sand Beach/Great Head Hike - Play frisbee on the beach or take a hike along the Great Head trail to get a better view of the rocky shores and waters of Acadia National Park and the island. Great Head trail is a moderately difficult 1.9 mile hike and requires hikers to be comfortable with a small bit of scrambling. 

Canoe Northeast Creek - Paddle the Northeast Creek estuary with experienced outdoor leaders as your guides. COA will provide the canoes, paddles, and life jackets. Please bring shoes for walking in the cranberry bog. (You may get a bit wet!) We will teach you the basics of canoeing if you are a beginner.
