Orion Guide Service & Outdoor Schools "Learn While You Hunt & Fish"
MAINE BLUEBERRIES FREE FOR THE TAKING!!
The blueberries are ripening quickly and thanks to the aquisition made by the Maine Department of Inland Fisheries & Wildlife of the Blueberry Barrens in Sanford, the public can help themselves. Located alongside Route 99 near the Sanford Airport, the Barrens were purchased to preserve land for upland plovers and other endangered birds and plants. The public is restricted to foot traffic on all but one access road but hundreds of acres of wild Maine blueberries are yours for the taking.

DO YOU NEED TO HIRE A GUIDE?
"I'm a pretty good fisherman and hunter. Why pay the huge prices for a guide? Why can't these people just sell us some good locations for a small fee?
It's surprising how many of my Orion Guide Service clients answer those questions for themselves after hiring me or one of my fellow Registered Maine Guides. Compare the average daily price for a Registered Maine Guide to fees charged by tennis & golf pros. A good guide, in my estimation is one that conducts business like a waiter at a fine restaurant. A guided hunting or fishing trip should be judged by the overall enjoyement of the experience, not by the quantity of fish and game taken.

Hunters & Anglers work hard for their vacation dollars. Hiring a guide provides great value for those dollars.
Vacation hunting and fishing trips seldom turn out like the edited television shows that may take several days to compile a 20-minute episode. Hiring a guide won't duplicate those shows every time but your overall experience is likely to be a pleasant one, and well worth the expense.
The repeat business of any one of the better guides will make up 80 percent or more of current bookings.
