The non-profit Northern Forest Center awarded recreational grants under its Northern Forest Destination Development Initiative to two towns that border the city of Berlin. The towns of Gorham and Milan are both focusing on their town/community forests, hiking and other non-motorized sports, in addition to ATVing and snowmobiling.

Gorham, which was recently recognized as the state’s second Appalachian Trail Community, was awarded $40,000 to build and install visitor kiosks on high-use trails, to build new parking for Androscoggin River sport access on Howland Avenue, and to complete a branding and signage plan.
