Pine Tree Camp is excited to announce that long-time camper, Bradley, will be this year’s ceremonial celebrity leader of the 47th annual Dysart’s Snowmobile Rice-in and Q106.5 Egg Ride. On February 1st, a convoy of snowmobiles will ride 25 miles from the Levant Hungry Hollow 76’ers Clubhouse to Dysart’s in Hermon with one goal in mind: to raise money for Maine kids with disabilities to attend Pine Tree Camp this summer. Bradley’s goal is to raise enough money for three campers.

It’s Pine Tree Camp’s 75th anniversary and Q106.5’s Scott Miller and Cindy Campbell have a special message for Maine snowmobilers.
“On Saturday, February 1st, we are inviting anyone who has a sled to join us in support of Pine Tree Camp,” said Scott Miller. “Rest assured, you will not have to carry raw eggs, that will be left to us.”
The Q106.5 Egg Ride is a cornerstone of the Dysart’s Ride-in with its tradition of Egg Riders stuffing raw eggs down their snowmobile suits. Each egg represents a $50 pledge from Q106.5 listeners to support Pine Tree Camp, a summer camp for Maine children and adults with disabilities.
Scott and Cindy will be joined by WABI TV5’s Emily Tadlock and Courtney Courtright for the ride from Levant to Hermon.
“We’re asking everyone who loves to ride to join Scott, Emily, Courtney and I as we take to the trails at the Hungry Hollow ‘76ers Snowmobile Club in Levant for the 25-mile trip to Dysart’s and help us send Maine kids with disabilities to camp this summer,” said Cindy Campbell.

More about Pine Tree Camp: All proceeds from the Dysart’s Snowmobile Ride-in and Q106.5 Egg Ride directly benefit Pine Tree Camp’s Campership Fund. 2020 marks Pine Tree Camp’s 75th anniversary. Every summer, more than 650 Maine children and adults with disabilities arrive at Pine Tree Camp in Rome and their lives are transformed. Driving down the camp road, campers enter a world that is barrier-free, leaving behind the confines of their disability thanks to the camp’s 285-acre, fully accessible campus. Campers actively participate in all the activities for which Maine is famous – kayaking, boating, fishing and hiking – experiencing freedom and independence. In addition, Pine Tree Camp provides their families with much needed respite. Since 1945, Pine Tree Camp has welcomed all who could benefit, regardless of their ability to pay. Pine Tree Camp receives no state or federal funding and ninety-nine percent of campers require tuition assistance. The funds raised from the Dysart’s Snowmobile Ride-in and Q106.5 Egg Ride are a critical part of the camp’s open door tuition policy.
