NRCM Turns 50: Join the Celebration
"Protecting the Nature of Maine: Fifty Years of the Natural Resources Council of Maine"
In celebration of our 50th anniversary, we invite you to join us for an inspiring new documentary film that features some of Maine’s most important environmental victories and the people who helped to make them possible.
Stunning footage and dozens of interviews bring the threats and the accomplishments to life—and remind us what can be achieved when concerned people come together for a cause in which they believe.
