Sharing Rides/Carpooling:

If you're able to pick up a passenger, or if you're looking for a ride to the field school, let others know on the Ride Share/Carpooling section on our Google Plus community. Our field school is a long way from anywhere. The vast majority of people who come to the field school come up from the south, then travel the entire length of I-95 through Maine, whether in their own vehicle or by bus. Share the ride, share the expenses and stay awake on those long, empty stretches of highway.
