Tuesday, August 21
Included in your registration is a harbor cruise and lobster bake. On Tuesday at 5:30pm, buses will drop you off at the Casco Bay Terminal to board the Bay Mist for a picturesque cruise around the bay including Portland Headlight. Arriving at Peaks Island, a short walk brings you to the site of the infamous, buffet-style Peaks Island Lobster bake where you'll enjoy a classic Down East feast of luscious lobster with all the trimmings: steamed clams, drawn butter, clam broth, corn on the cob, coleslaw, boiled potatoes, rolls, coffee, tea, punch, and fresh Maine blueberry cake. For those who prefer, steak, chicken, vegetarian and children's meals are also available. Everything is served in a casual buffet-style.

Make sure you bring your meal ticket!

During your stay on the island dinner guests can enjoy volleyball, horseshoes or just relax to the sounds of the Rakish Paddy band. The Bay Mist steams back to the Old Port at 9:30pm where buses are available for transport to the hotel, or you may want to pub crawl your way back to the Holiday Inn on your own.

To sign up for your lobster bake meal, please completely fill out your registration form, including information for extra guest meals. If you have any questions, please contact dbuckley@umext.maine.edu.
