Expert kayaker and longtime video boater, Chuck made daily videos for whitewater rafting trips on the upper gorge section of the Kennebec River for years. His favorite outdoor sound is the constant roar of a rapid or waterfall, but a close second is waking up to the sound of Loons on Lake Parlin. Today he makes his living as a project engineer, but still rages in his whitewater kayak, mountain bike and snowboard (Sugarloaf!). |

When she is not in the woods hiking or catching a disc on the Ultimate Frisbee field, Meghan can be found working to get more teens outside as the Outreach & Programs Coordinator for Teens To Trails (T3). While Meghan is a recent transplant to Portland, she has ties to Maine having spent 10 summers on Sebago Lake at Camp Wawenock and has extended family in midcoast. Meghan’s claim to fame is that she was an extra in Josh Radnor’s film “Liberal Arts” shot one summer at her alma mater. Besides that, she is thrilled to be a part of the 2015 MOFF Jury and getting to see stories of the outdoors unfolded on camera! Cheers folks! |

Nick has worked in the outdoors as a guide and videographer, both in Maine for a rafting company and in Alaska for a helicopter skiing company. All the while, Nick has continually worked to further his eye and skills of the trade. Also, as a dad, showing his kids the wonders of the wild consumes most of Nick’s endeavors. Nick’s favorite outdoor sound is the sound of a class 5 river run. The white water creates a thunderous, but pleasant, tone that is unlike any thing else and always puts you in the moment. |
