CHEWONKI students Jessie Springer, from Washington, D.C., and Marc Foster, from Massachusetts, help with wood hauling.
Students joined in projects, including yard work at Tedford Shelter in Brunswick, splitting wood for a local family, restoration of a habitat at Hidden Valley Nature Center and planting onions at Goranson’s Farm in Dresden.
Math teacher Bill Hinkley, who coordinated the projects, said that the project is a way to connect students with the local region.
“Our most successful projects are the ones where we get to work with the people we are helping. We’re always looking for new opportunities to help out the community,” Hinkley said in a press release.
