Expanding Group - The Merrymeeting Bay Pioneers Project was initiated by Dr. Bruce Bourque and a handful of other individualsl, but this is not a static number.

We have already enlisted the assistance of several other individuals and we are always interested in hearing from other motivated and knowledgeable people who would like to pool their talents with ours and join our project, either in a consulting capacity or as full, active participants in the group.

All of the four initiators live on or near Merrymeeting Bay, and bring high-level expertise in archaeology, history, and related skills and disciplines to the project.

We would like to thank the Merrymeeting Bay Trust for their generous financial support of our project and Quantum Spatial, Inc. for providing high-resolution LiDAR survey data for our study.  Thanks also go to the Maine Office of GIS for their interest and assistance. Their support has been a tremendous help to us.
