If you’ve got a motorcycle come join one of the most fun rides you’ll ever do!
Bikers for Boobies is turning 5 on Saturday, October 57. It should be turning 6, but a tropical storm zooming up north, bringing heavy rain canceled the fun last year. This year I have faith that the weather Gods are on our side!

What is Bikers for Boobies?
Started by a new Maine motorcycle club, the Vacationland V-Twin Cruisers, Bikers for Boobies is a fundraiser to help Mainers fight breast cancer. Five years ago, they wanted to help Maine, and they had an idea to organize a run to help Mainers fight breast cancer. Well, that ties in pretty perfectly with the annual Cans for a Cure, which has been raising money for Mainers for over two decades. We worked together to organize a 90+ mile bike run, all to benefit Cans for a Cure. That money will go directly to the Maine Cancer Foundation. It’s one of my absolute favorite days of the year.

The route is always gorgeous, as the leaves are turning in earnest. There are plenty of chances to stretch your legs and even grab a coffee at Dunkin in Cornish!

It’s the camaraderie that I love the most, though. The people you meet are a family, and when you join, you are instantly family, too! They even made me an honorary biker. Oh sure, I don’t own a bike, but I own this super cool-looking ‘cut’.
Look how bad-ass I am. My biker name (you get a biker name) is DJ Hot Shit. Sorry, I know it’s not family friendly but it is hysterical nonetheless.
Bikers for Boobies raises a ton of money (nearly $6,000), but it’s a day for fun and laughing! These bikers know how to raise a lot of money while raising just a tiny bit of hell. In the best possible way.

When is Maine’s most fun motorcycle run, Bikers for Boobies?
Saturday, October 5. KSU (kick stands up) at 11 a.m., and registration starts at 9:30 a.m. This is when you see people that maybe you haven’t seen since the last run. This is a great time to catch up. Also, Dunkin’ provides all the coffee, hot chocolate, muffins, and donuts! I promise you, it will be a memory you dip into when you are feeling blue to make you feel better.
Thank you to our awesome sponsor Iron Horse Motorcycle Lawyers!

A collective of environmental, arts and Indigenous-led organizations is collaborating to produce We Are the Watershed, a two-day event aimed at reconnecting humans with nature and revitalizing the health of waterways, estuaries, and the bay in Peskotomuhkatikuk (traditional Passamaquoddy territory). Events, including theatrical performances, music, culinary experiences and an exhibition of submitted artwork, will be held on May 1 and 2 at Eastport Arts Center (EAC). A publication of written and visual works will also be released with proceeds to support conservation efforts and spreading awareness of their impacts.
Submissions sought: Written and visual works are currently sought from artists and creatives on both sides of the border across Peskotomuhkatikuk for the publication, which will be sold by donation at the May event. Proceeds from the sale will be dedicated to related community-building efforts, public engagement, and continued restoration efforts. The deadline for digital submission for the publication is April 1.
Physical works can be dropped off at EAC Sunday, April 26 between 11 a.m. and 1 p.m. to be a part of the exhibition, which will run May 1 through 15. Artists under 18 will receive 100% of the proceeds if they opt to put their pieces up for sale during the exhibit, which will run May 1 through May 15. Artists over 18 will receive 70% of the proceeds with the remainder going toward promoting awareness of and supporting conservation efforts for the Passamaquoddy Bay.
