MPGA's L.L.Bean ProPlan

Direct Purchase Discounts for MPGA Members!
Effective October 8, 2008
Nothing says "Maine" better than Maine Guides, and L.L.Bean. The Maine Professional Guides Association and L.L.Bean have worked closely together for many years, and we are now very pleased to offer this terrific new discount program for MPGA members.
Guide members may buy directly from L.L.Bean at their Freeport Retail Store, by Telephone, and by Mail Order.
This greatly expanded discount program is a result of our growing relationship with L.L.Bean and their recognition for MPGA�s successes and importance in Maine's outdoor landscape.
