Paige Emerson is the founder of Chubby Hiker Reviews, a social media account where she reviews hikes in Maine as someone who is plus sized. She encourages people of all body types to get outdoors and she does advocacy work for folks in fat bodies. Her main goal is to work for inclusion and accessibility in outdoor spaces. In addition to being a trail reviewer, Paige is also a Clinical Social Worker and a Registered Maine Guide. She will be discussing her work and her favorite trails in a presentation titled 'Body Positive Hiking' on August 8th from 6 - 7pm in the Community Meeting Room. This program is free and open to all!
