The Mid Coast Chapter of the New England Mountain Bike Association (McNEMBA) will start its summer NEMBA Explorers program soon.

The program will run Mondays starting June 17 with an orientation and will conclude on July 29. All sessions will be at the Camden Snow Bowl and will start at 6 p.m.

The goal of the program, said Morgan Laidlaw of the association, is to develop mountain biking skills and build confidence, but most importantly, instill a lifelong appreciation for mountain biking.
