Description

Come visit our education rangers at Patten Academy Park for fun trivia and games. Rangers will be available to answer questions and hand out information about Katahdin Woods and Waters National Monument.

While you're out and about check out join the community at the Lumbermen's Museum for the famous "bean-hole" dinner, serving baked beans like the river drivers used to do it! These beans bake in the ground for 24 hours before being served hot to hungry guests. Rangers will also be at the NPS desk to stamp passports.

Also availble: Hot coffee, wagon rides, live music, blacksmithing, wood turning, games, and crafters’ tables. Don't miss this annual tradition!
