LINCOLNVILLE — Maine Envirothon is holding a raffle for a three-day/two-night Midcoast Maine getaway to Lincolnville Beach. The raffle purchase supports Maine Envirothon, a state and nationwide environmental competition for public, private and home school students in grades 9-12.

The winner will receive a three-day/two-night stay for two at the Victorian by the Sea bed & breakfast; one-day paddleboard, kayak or sailing excursion for two on Penobscot Bay with Thorfinn Expeditions; dinner for two at the historic Whale’s Tooth Pub.

The getaway is good anytime during the 2013 season; no blackout dates. Tickets are $25 each with a maximum of 250 tickets sold.

Tickets may be purchased online at maineswcds.org/envirothon, or through local Soil & Water Conservation Districts. Drawing will be held at the Maine Association of Conservation Districts spring meeting on Wednesday, March 13. Winner need not be present.

All proceeds support Maine Envirothon, the Maine Association of Conservation Districts statewide education program. Envirothon, a state- and nationwide environmental competition, tests high school students’ knowledge of natural resources and current environmental issues. Three to five student teams answer questions and solve hands-on problems in five subject areas: wildlife, water/aquatics, forestry, soils and a current natural resource issue. This year’s current issue is “Sustainable Forestland Management: Achieving balance with forest products, environmental concerns, traditional recreation, tourism and increased development pressure.”
