Maine’s Department of Inland Fisheries and Wildlife (DIFW) released a statement yesterday encouraging people to sign up for its “Traps+Trails LGBTQAI+ Winter Outdoor Extravaganza.”
“Folks of all identities, abilities, and experience levels are welcome to join us for a day of fun and learning in the Maine outdoors! Whether you are a part of the queer community or an outdoor ally, you’re invited,” said the DIFW in its posting for the event.
The event is careful to avoid accusations of discrimination by opening the event to “ally’s” of the queer community, rather than just the LGBTQ people themselves, although it suggests that the state is still restricting the event to those who agree politically with the LGBTQIA+ agenda.
The DIFW’s event comes as a partnership with various outdoor companies, such as L.L. Bean, and Fenton’s Bait Shop, but it also represents the state government explicitly partnering with far-left activist groups, something which, under Gov. Janet Mills (D-Maine) has become quite common.

These groups include Queerly ME, which pushes “queer centered outdoor programming,” Out in the Open, which seeks to increase LGBT “visibility” in rural areas, or Out Maine, which explicitly seeks to promote the LGBT agenda with regard to children.
“By supporting LGBTQ+ youth and their families, empowering queer youth in our Maine communities, and educating providers, we help create welcoming and affirming spaces needed by our LGBTQ+ population,” says Out Maine.
The event is scheduled to take place on February 17 at Range Rock Pond in Poland, ME.
The LGBTQIA+ Outdoor Extravaganza is not the first time the state has tried to push far-left ideology using its outdoor programs.
In November, Maine’s Department of Agriculture, Conservation, and Forestry (ACF) decided to offer free passes to state parks based solely on race.
That program was quickly halted, however, after the state began to receive negative attention for its explicit racial discrimination.

Special taxpayer funded events for people who have specific sexual habits?
Mills and her cohorts are driving this state right into the toilet with California.
smh
So, Mills and the Legislature have done the following in the past 2 yrs….
Legalize weed and now they want to step up to legalizing a more powerful “recreational” drug with mushrooms
Legalized killing babies up until moments before birth. Next they’ll introduce bills allowing infanticide within the first week after birth if the baby isn’t perfect and has some sort of handicap.
They’ve brought thousands of illegals from third world cesspools. They want to give them drivers licenses….wait, then how do so many have cars? I see them come close to causing accidents every day. Good thing Americans are actually taught to drive.
Higher taxes.
They’re okay with unconstitutional shutdowns, etc.
More subsidized housing than every which helps drive up market rents.
More regulations than ever.
Attempting to control how we cook our food and what we drive and where we can work and forcing dangerous shots on certain people.
ETC…..
We are capturing everything you hold dear. Step by step, day by day, bill by bill. There is absolutely no opposition in Maine. It’s like taking candy from a baby. Your GOP politicians go online and make tik tok videos complaining and gather views. They are in essence controlled opposition that work for us.
The best part about this is that we use your own money to do it. We are not going to let you vote for who you want. There ain’t nuttin’ you can do ’bout it either.
@Beachmom, although I am not an anon, I have read many of the Q post doing my best to try to understand what is being conveyed for information. Many dismiss the Q post, and it is their right to do so, however I live by a creed that if I cannot prove, or disprove something that I have to be open to either being a possibility.
With this said contained within some of these post is the language that the “Dems” will cease to exist as this great awakening process continues onward. Part of this process is showing the people the true colors of these peoples, and again within the Q post it says that sometimes you have to show the people. I get this because I have, or had friends that were on the left politically, and any information that is provided to these people is promptly dismissed as conspiracy. This limited ability to ingest information is not limited to just the left body politic as many like my elderly dad suffer from it as well, and he is by no means a lefty.
The laying bare of these agendas leaves no room for those who are typically confined within the mainstream media narrative to continue onward with those same thought processes. A good program to listen to is And We Know which can be found on Rumble, and Bitchute; this program, not solely so, delves into these Q post, and helps provide some understanding that none computer savvy persons such as myself can benefit from in advancing understanding.
LT who is a former marine, and is a devout Christian produces this program along with members of his family.
I hope they at least provide us a tally of the gender transitioning wildlife they encounter. There’s probably Federal monies they can leverage to give free surgeries to our animal friends.
I’m just trying to be a good wildlife ally.
@Colluci, You say you believe in the Q stuff? Ok.
Doesn’t Q state that Trump is secretly in his 2nd term? Well then by Q’s own standards, he is illegally running for a 3rd time.
If that is true, then you admit you support a Dictator who you will vote for to be on his 3rd term.
Prove me wrong.
Conner, I am a skeptic with all things, and the Q post are no different. However on the issue of President Trump being in his third term I believe that you are misunderstanding this. I believe it was in 2015, or 2016 that the SCOTUS ruled that the role of commander and chief was separate from the office of president although these two positions can be held by the same person. The law of war manual was updated during this period of time, and this was one of the issues addressed during this process. Derek Johnson, and Jan Halper Haze have both presented information that supports this, and I would suggest that you listen to that information. Both of these people have Rumble channels.
I have heard as well that Presidents Trump is recognized as commander and chief by loyal factions of the US military that includes NORCOM. I do not know this to be true or not, but my gut feeling from information that I have ingested makes me think that this could be true. Nowhere have I read, or heard that he is president of the now bankrupted corporation of the US established at the time of the 1871 Organic Act. This is the role that Biden now holds.
As I have stated in prior comments, I was in the U S Navy in the Underwater Demolition Team, and my oath to protect the constitution from enemies foreign and domestic such as yourself has never wavered. But your support of Biden in his treasonous role in the subversion of the US indicates that you support dictatorships.
I hope this answers your question.
The LGBTQW(Whatever) community needs to understand that proponents of the traditional nuclear family don’t really accept their beliefs, they just tolerate them. If they continue to push the envelope, they’ll be setting themselves back (but, of course, will blame us).
@ME Infidel, you won’t have a choice. What happens to a Conservative father who finds out that all his children are non-binary allies of the left and one is transgender? He won’t stand against them. He’ll shut his mouth and just accept them cause they are his blood. This is how we defeat you. We bring in an endless river of New Mainers and control your children.
Your island is almost under water.
I’m just kidding around geesh. I just like getting everyone all worked up. Everything I wrote above was just to get a reaction, and hopefully get everyone to vote for trump 2024!!!@
Sad day for the State of Maine. This isn’t about acceptance…this is about division.
Sure hope this lake party doesn’t become so hot blooded that the ice melts and they all fall in.
Connor wants to push buttons but is actually a coward.
Commie Connor is clearly off his meds.
@ Connnor, thanks for clarifying your position lol… I THOUGHT you were speaking tongue in cheek, but these days, who knows?
As for the article, the entire ABCppl-agenda is only ONE PART of the socialists’ Cloward & Pivens plan to subvert and destroy our country from within. We are seeing the horrifying results today, with BLM, motor-voter laws (as Beachmom wrote) etc. They have spent the last few decades organizing while America slept.
Patriotic America must stand against these ppl, because if we don’t, the freedom we take so much for granted will not be here much longer.
This free website is a wealth of information on exactly what is happening. I know it’s overwhelming, but we must stand and speak against the LIES, for silence in the face of evil is how we lose!

Connor, wants to talk to minors about sex so he can groom them for sexual exploitation including mutilation and sodomy. Traditional Mainers believe that Connor’s position is immoral and exploitative.
What on earth does a fish and game department, holding an outdoor event, have to do with LGBTQ123++XYZetc? What? – Are the deer and woodpeckers and rabbits and spruce trees and mountain laurel all now to be classified according to their transgenderism or lack thereof?
Are we no longer allowed to have any kind of experience that isn’t polluted by every kind of sexual/political agenda? Why does the LGBTQ-etc have to be mentioned at all for this “festival?” Are those who attend required to state their sexual/gender status before they are allowed entry and participation? Do we really need this crap shoved into our faces at every turn? Nobody needs to obsess over his/hers/its/x/their personal identity crisis in order to enjoy a day in the woods!
Maybe they’d do themselves some good if they got out there and breathed some clean, pure air, and thought about something besides themselves. Narcissists, all, just vying for attention.
Maine DIFW announcement: “Folks of all identities, abilities, and experience levels are welcome to join us for a day of fun …”
Is my edit here “less inclusive?” “Folks are welcome to join us for a day of fun …”
MAGA stands with Palestine.
Girls that stand with jews sleep with the wrong race, sad.
1. Connor is a gay
2. P.S
I (Connor the gay) don’t support the dept of fish and wildlife sports species management plan and I poach boogers in my nose too.
Please just stop calling me gay everybody. I was just joking around on here to see if people actually read my posts . I am truly a Republican. I just like getting people worked up by typing things that will get people mad. I don’t know much about politics and most of what I type here in the comments is just BS coming out of my ass. I don’t state any facts, it’s just fun making things up. I’m just a prankster. Please STOP taking me seriously and please stop teasing me.
Help turn Maine RED again.
Vote Trump 2024
Cheers,
Connor
Commie Connor needs to go back on his meds. He’s a pathetic loser. Nobody cares what he says. He needs to go hug his commie buddies to make him feel better about himself.
Is this what our fees to the MDIFW are being used for? Make the queer folk pay their own way, damn it! Use our fees for important issues that concern all Mainers.
I’m sick of this pandering to the woke mob.
Your kidding me ! let’s paint warden trucks in rainbow colors too
Enough of this ridiculous crap
I plan on attending the gay parade. I’m non-binary, and I love everyone.
You all should know me by now. Stop taking me so seriously. I’m a republican and I’m just trying to get everyone worked up. Wake up people.
Vote Trump 2024
Cheers,
Connor
@ Miss Nomer, I take meds because I have a lot of confusion and depression. I don’t tease you for any type of medication that you may be taking. Please don’t make fun of me or my medical condition. Do you know anyone who is Bi-Polar? Well you do now. So please stop teasing me.
Cheers,
Connor
This is just more proof that cocaine really fks up your brain – Look what it did to Our sick Govna Mills! She is allowing this crap after all.
This article is gay. So am I. I was just kidding earlier. I’m not a Republican. I’m a dirty little marxist pig. This article is seriously about gays though. I would know too. I’m gay Connor. I also don’t have any friends. That amigo language is a crack at the illegal invaders pretending to be Americano’s. What a laugh.
Amazing! Simply amazing!
