Our Annual Meeting is one of our favorite events of the year. We love connecting with a room full of people who, like you, love Acadia National Park and are dedicated to its legacy.
It’s also a chance to celebrate amazing work and the incredible people who make it all happen.
In 2026, we’re especially excited to celebrate Friends of Acadia’s 40th anniversary!
Please join us on July 8, 2026 at the Bar Harbor Club to hear updates about what’s happening in the park and celebrate 40 years of incredible impact and collaboration for Acadia National Park!
