This weekend is the annual festival of all things Peaks Island. It’s a fun festival on a fun island. Events begin on Friday night and conclude on Sunday. There will be all the basics of an island celebration; parade, pie eating contest, dog and talent shows amongst other things. If you have the time come on out and have some fun!
The island is a great place for kayaking, and to celebrate that aspect of island life we’re hosting our annual races on Saturday. The round the island race starts at 10:05 and the challenging outer green race starts at noon. Both races have a significant open ocean aspect and along with tidal currents it’s not a venue for the beginner.
Requirements: Your boat needs to meet MIKCo’s requirements for basic seaworthiness. Waiver and Release required. $15 donation to Peaks Island Land Preserve or Marine Mammal Rescue League.
