“Maine Day Cruise”

ORONO, Maine-- The University of Maine Automotive Enthusiasts Club (UMAE) will be hosting their annual Maine Day event April 28, 2010. The Maine Day cruise is the largest event held by UMAE; were both current and alumni members are welcomed to join in on the event.

UMAE has a folder on first class for many years but current member numbers have dropped the past two years. UMAE hopes to regain members in a series of events before Maine Day although first time members are welcome to join on the day of the Maine Day event.

University of Maine cancels all classes on Maine Day and many clubs hold different events for the student body to participate in. UMAE offers a series of events that start in Orono and end in Bar Harbor.

On April 28^th at 10 a.m. members met at the university parking lot next to the football field to start the day. Next driving down I-95 to Brewer to eat breakfast at McDonalds. After breakfast five minute drive up the street for an event of go-karting. After go-karting the members drive in Acadia National Park and drive up Cadillac Mountain. The drive is very scenic and relaxing. After everyone has taken in the views of the park, drive down the mountain and to Bar Harbor where members can eat lunch at Geddy’s pub. After lunch UMAE event is over and members can do whatever they like. They can drive back to Orono, stay in Bar Harbor or take in Acadia’s beautiful landscape.

Students that wish to join UMAE just have to introduce themselves in the UMAE first class folder and will start getting information on events. You don’t need to own a nice car to join, just the interest in cars is enough.

Look forward to meeting some of you on Maine Day.

From,



Alysha M. Steltzer
