What it reported doing in 2025

Junior Guides Summer Program: A signature educational program offered for six sessions across three consecutive Mondays and Tuesdays in July. Available in Basic and Advanced formats, this hands-on program covers Maine mammals, insect identification, fly tying and casting, archery, watercraft, sports, hiking, and more-pre-registration is required. Hunter Safety Classes: Educational courses providing essential knowledge and certification for hunting activities. Interested participants should contact the organization to express interest and learn about upcoming sessions. Tim Baker Trail: A nature trail located at the Guides' Clubhouse opens annually in June and features a rotating storybook walk designed for children. Kids' Fishing Derby: An annual July event where children fish in age groups at the stocked Fishing Pond behind the Clubhouse. The organization provides equipment, bait, prizes, and food for participants.

Operating model

Revenue model
Mixed. Its operating money came from several sources; no one source provided a clear majority.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Liabilities are high compared with assets and reported officer compensation is a large share of total spending, which may reflect staffing concentration.
