Maine's Country Station has raised hundreds of thousands of dollars for the Pine Tree Camp since first starting the Q106.5 Egg Ride 30 years ago.

It's a messy tradition with Q106.5 personalities and other local celebrities stuffing raw eggs (one for every $50 pledged) into their snow suits and riding from Levant to Newport. The eggs are not hard-boiled, and we don't line our suits with plastic bags.

Yes, it's messy, but with your generous donations, we are able to support the Pine Tree Camp for Children and Adults with Disabilities in Rome, Maine. Your donations help cover the cost of tuition at the camp, so every child gets to attend.

The Egg Ride is part of the Pine Tree Camp Ride-In, which was started 43 years ago when local snowmobile clubs banded together to raise money for the camp, which has served adults and children with disabilities since 1945. In those 43 years, it has raised more than $4 million!

The Egg Ride is this Saturday, Feb. 6. It will start at the Hungry Hollow 76'ers Snowmobile Club in Levant and end at the Newport Elementary School. Before we start, join us for a breakfast at the Hungry Hollow! And after the ride, stick around for lots of fun activities in Newport, all to benefit the Pine Tree Camp!

Please donate either by calling the station at 991-9500 or by clicking the button below.
