The Acetarium Summer Retreat 2014 is the Acetarium's 2014 end-of-summer retreat.
Location [Alex Ose] has rented part of an island off Maine. Near Portland, (accessible by Amtrak), Falmouth is the native home of the Abenaki tribe, and the port of launch for Sturdivant Island. See: [1] for more information on our little bit of island.
Dates: September 4 - September 8.
Description
This trip is designed to offer a last escape and farewell to summer. It will be a time for friends to gather together and enjoy the natural beauty of Maine, sleep-in, explore, and maybe work on some projects.
Useful Information
- There is no internet on Sturdivant. There is 4G mobile access.
- There is no television, however the internet assures us it is unnecessary.
- There is a beach, a grill, a firepit, and a lobster cooker.
- The cottage is run by solar panels and a back up generator.
- The water is "brackish," and drinking it unfiltered is not recommended.
Useful links
