2021 NCR Spring Getaway Weekend -- Inside-Out Bar Harbor Tour -- June 5 - 7, 2021

Bar Harbor reduced

Join like-minded Porsche enthusiasts on a tour from New Hampshire across Maine to the rock-bound Atlantic coast with its scenic and gustatory delights.  Our three-day getaway is timed to bring us to Bar Harbor on Mt Desert Island just prior to high season, so we should enjoy warming temperatures, minimal congestion, and easier access to the region's offerings.  While there you will have options for exploration (subject to COVID restrictions), including Acadia National Park; hiking or biking; photography; sailing; and carriage rides on 58 miles of Rockefeller’s woodland roads.

We call this an “inside-out” tour because we will drive as a group to arrive at Bar Harbor, then leave it to you to explore the area on your own.  Group dinners will provide opportunities to share discoveries and experiences.

Proper mask wearing is REQUIRED when outside your car.  No Exceptions.  If this requirement offends you, skip this event.

Further area information will be sent to registered participants shortly before the event. 

Registration is on MotorsportReg (MSR).  No paper waiver forms will be used.  Instead, we are using SpeedWaiver digital waiver credentials.  Near the end of the MSR registration process, you will have the opportunity to enter your mobile phone number.  This will initiate your SpeedWaiver.  SpeedWaivers for additional adults in your car can be initiated at the link provided in your confirmation message.  At the present time, PCA has not approved SpeedWaivers for Minors, so we cannot accommodate Minors at this event.

Schedule

Saturday:  Gather at the Intervale Scenic Vista Visitors Center, 3654 White Mountain Hwy, North Conway, NH 03860 for waiver credential checking and the usual Drivers Meeting, then depart to drive to Bar Harbor.  You will be required to display your SpeedWaiver credential on your smartphone. 

Our route will take us over typical Maine river-valley roads to lunch in Waterville, then over a series of "roller coaster" roads toward the coast.  Upon arrival in Bar Harbor we check in at the Bar Harbor Inn & Spa in the center of town, close by the town pier, shops, and restaurants.  We plan, of course, to socialize at a Welcome Dinner.

Sunday:  The day is yours to explore as you wish.  Even if you have previously visited Acadia National Park, you may choose to refresh the experience, or you might prefer a Windjammer Cruise or a drive up the coast to the Schoodic Peninsula where the less well known, less visited portion of Acadia National Park offers scenery, hiking, and solitude unique to the area. We cap off the day with a Group Dinner ... but note that space is limited to a total of 24 people.  Other dining alternatives are close by.

Monday:  After breakfast, attend the Drivers Meeting, display your digital SpeedWaiver Credential, and join the group drive down the coast to Camden, ME where our Getaway will end.
