Brian Farley

Brian Farley is the current CIT Director, starting in 2020. Brian joined Birch Rock in 2015 as an eager trip leader. His favorite moment from that year was a trip around Lake Mooselookmeguntic with legendary counselor Bob Donahue. While the trip had its hiccups, Brian quickly fell in love with Biroca during his time on campus in between trips. During his first two years Brian shared lodging with Chris Cogswell, and the pair became a staple around camp, leading to such famous musical skits as “Chris Cogswell & Brian Farley”, which can be heard hummed along the paths to this day.

In addition to being a normal trip leader (are any trip leaders normal?), Brian had the pleasure of leading several years of MWA with a few different co-leaders: John Moore, Chris Cogswell, Gordon Hargraves, and Becka Holbrook (twice). A true outdoorsman, Brian enjoys a multitude of outdoor sports like backpacking, snowshoeing, swimming, and cycling. When not out in the Maine woods, Brian enjoys kicking back in his hammock, lounging in Onie’s, and checking on his GPS (it’s always broken).
