Original designs inspired by the sea…
Creativity abounds at this one of a kind fashion show that dazzles its audience each year at Harbor Fest. Talented designers debut original designs made only with materials from the marine industry, using everything from tarps and fishing line, to shrink wrap and lobster traps. Local merchants also hit the runway with their unique wares and local students help produce the show.
Proceeds benefit the BRHS Project Graduation.

Join us at beautiful Pineland Farms for the inaugural Dynamic Fit Challenge.  We took a trail run, blended with parts of the Dynamic Dirt Challenge obstacle course, then added the spice of working out with a personal trainer during the race.

Pair that run or walk with pizza, beer, yoga, massages, healthy snacks, and a DJ dance party to meet you at the finish line–and you’ve got Portland’s favorite fall 10K! Join over 1,500 runners and walkers for the 20th Annual Trail to Ale 10K Race + Walk and support the trails you love.

The Dempsey Challenge is an annual run, walk, cycle experience and is the primary fundraiser for the Dempsey Center.
