Summer Getaway

As an MMA student or alumnus you don’t have to travel far from Castine to “detox from school and work,” says Steven Amadio, shown with a wry, if not dry, expression in the selfie of this 2017 MMA Photo Contest entry. Across Maine, and in this case, New Hampshire, are many pristine ponds that offer swimming, fishing, boating, exploring and a chance to gather with friends.

Amadio ’19, a Vessel Operations and Technology major, began a tradition of camping with friends in the summer New England outdoors that he hopes to continue into the future, “no matter where I have to fly in from.”

Do you and your classmates have a special place where you reunite to swap stories, family progress, and share memories and hopes for the future? We’d love to hear about it, but will keep the exact coordinates secret upon request. Contact: mariner@mma.edu.
