The Ride for a Cure Cancer Awareness ATV ride is on Sunday October2nd.

The event begins at the Acadia Area ATV’ers clubhouse at 3 Wyman Road in Hancock. Participants are encouraged to register in advance, here is the link.

Registration begins at 8 a.m. at the ATV’ers club, and the rain or shine ride departs at 9a.m.  Rain means mud and ATV’ers love mud, right? However the forecast is for a nice and dry fall day.

The event will benefit 3 non profit cancer centers.

• Beth C. Wright Cancer Resource Center in Ellsworth. They offer education and support services for anyone on the cancer journey throughout every community in Washington and Hancock counties.
• Christine B. Foundation in Bangor, supporting cancer patients and their families in Piscataquis, Penobscot, Hancock and Washington Counties.
• Team Halley Hugs of Bethel, Maine supports families with children battling cancer all over the state.

Here is a fun aspect of the ride

All are encouraged to decorate their machines with pink and/or cancer awareness items as well as decorate bras which are voted on by peers to determine who has the best decorations.

Need inspiration?

The ride itself is about 80 miles of beautiful scenery and includes a stop for gas and snacks, and later a lunch stop at Spectacle Pond. And still you’ll arrive back at the clubhouse between 2:30 and 3:30.

At the end of the ride, raffles will be drawn and Darlings Ice Cream Truck with have treats by donation.

Fun.

Community.
