Text Box: Our Mission
	Here at MWA we have a mission; to inspire an appreciation for Nature by offering unique and enlightening experiences navigating through Maine’s remote backcountry.  It is our goal that our travelers reawaken natural skills and intuitions, rekindle their relationship with Nature and discover themselves as significant and intricate parts of the Natural World.
About Us
	MWA was founded by two women, best of friends who share a love of Maine and the great outdoors.  Both women  raised with the teachings of traditional Maine families, learning the wisdom of the woods and an appreciation for its natural resources.  Through their travels and experiences they’ve developed a passion for teaching and inspiring others through Nature.

Terri-Lynn Fowler is a registered Maine Guide who resides in Thorndike, Maine.  As the mother of two beautiful girls and an advocate for women it has been her mission to bring more women into the wilderness for them to discover their own strengths and intuitive wisdom.  Through her guidance and encouragement women have developed the confidence and self assurance needed to fulfill their lives with inner peace and contentment.

Joanie Withee is a registered Maine Guide who resides in Stetson, Maine.  As a coordinator for an afterschool program called Life Jackets, she shares her passion for Nature through wilderness expeditions and wilderness skills development.   Joanie goes beyond the paddle, enriching the lives of these young people with confidence, respect and achievements through diligence, skills that carry through a life time.

           Our kids have amazing adventures, with safety being our top priority.  As mothers ourselves it’s instinctual and only natural for us to protect and nurture our youth participants.  We provide a safe and comfortable environment where they can feel confident about themselves as well as their leaders.  Our interaction with the children is on a level basis, we’re never above them, we’re always right there beside them.  We’re like big sisters who like to be silly and have fun, but Mother Bears when safety is of concern.  

 

           Participants in our youth adventures gain skills that will last a life time.  They’ll obtain skills in paddling and hiking, wilderness survival, species identification, fire making, primitive tools, wilderness signs and so forth.  Most importantly however, they’ll develop skills that will enhance their lives forever.  Our trips influence people to build confidence in self and in others, respect for self and in others, including “wild” things.  Participants discover self worth and the value of friends and the connectivity of a community.  They learn the power of diligence through the reward of achievement.  These are words we all know the meaning of, but to truly understand is to feel the empowerment from the experiences.

This is our opportunity to bring

women back to where they came from,

to reawaken their

 natural skills and intuitions.

 Women are free to discover themselves

 as part  of the natural world in a

comfortable environment free from

 intimidation and discrimination. 

They can discover their own

 strengths and abilities

while navigating the enchanting

wilderness of Maine.
