<div>It is a wonderful opportunity to meet with state legislators who may be pivotal on key legislation that will impact Maine's forests, waters and wildlife. Karen Woodsum of the Maine Woods program will be there as well as Sierra Club volunteers. It is important to have a Sierra Club presence at the onset of the legislative session - and just introducing yourself and saying that you care about the protection of Maine 's woods and wildlife will be very effective. <br /></div>
