Bar Harbor Lobster Races with a Twist
One of the great traditions in Bar Harbor is the annual Lobster Races. This year, the Mount Desert Island YMCA is going to hold the lobster races with a special twist!
In a desire to help foot traffic in local businesses, the lobsters will be "racing" all around town and found in local businesses. You'll need to stop in the MDI YMCA and pick up your scavenger hunt card starting on June 28th.
The lobsters will be dressed in their racing attire with a racing bib number. Participants will be given a list of business locations and you'll have to record their corresponding race number on the Scavenger Hunt Card.
You can search from June 28th through July 5. All Scavenger Hunt Cards must be turned into the MDI YMCA by Tuesday, July 6th at 12 Noon.
Raffle prizes will be drawn for those participants with the most correct entries!
