Northern Forest Canoe Trail’s New Board Chair Is From Lake Placid

The Northern Forest Canoe Trail’s Board of Directors has appointed Anne Brewer, of Lake Placid, as its new chair.

Brewer takes the helm after three years of leadership from Don Hudson, of Arrowsic, Maine. Hudson will remain on the board.

Brewer, an avid outdoor sports enthusiast, earned a degree in International Business and Communications from SUNY Brockport. She is the managing editor for LOCALadk magazine and operates her own summer business — Placid Waters Kayaking.

The NFCT board also welcomed two new members in 2020: SJ Tinker and Kristine Keeney. Tinker, of Bowdoinham, Maine, works on the administrative team at the Center for Teaching and Learning in Edgecomb, Maine. She also runs a small garment repair and upcycling business called the Maine Tinker Tailor. Keeney, of Greenwood, Maine, is the New England coordinator for the East Coast Greenway Alliance. She also serves on the Granite Backcountry Alliance’s Board of Directors and the advisory committee of the Center for an Ecology Based Economy.
