Orono Is On Track To Open A New Outdoor Rec Center
It s funny.. I feel like Orono has all these hidden gems that aren t exactly a secret, but at the same time, don t seem to receive the same top-of-mind consciousness that other parts of town does. Ask anyone about the Bangor City Forest, and they know exactly what you re talking about. The Bog Walk as well..
And a good chuck of the bog in the Bangor City Forest is actually in Orono. But now, thanks to some grant money from the Maine Trails Advisory Committee of the Department of Agriculture, Conservation and Forestry (say that three times real fast), the Orono Economic Development Corporation has some funds to renovate some older buildings in the middle of the Caribou Bog Trail.
