Free Chess Tournaments 10:00 am – 12:00 pm (Up to 20 participants on first come basis)

For people not involved in the chess games the location of this event takes place where there is a breathtaking scenic viewing from a mountain top location. During the day people are encouraged to carefully drive up to the top and enjoy viewing. (A little bit like driving up to the top of Mt. Washington, with a ¼ mile drive from the Chess games and gathering area (at the rustic amphitheater area) up to the summit of Mt. Ira.)

Bring Your Own Picnic from 12:00 pm to 1:00 pm
Biking Riding for late arrivals from 1:30 pm to 3:30 pm
Prayer and farewells from 3:30 pm – 4:30 pm

People who only want to bike ride without gathering at the Mt. Ira location may freely do so. Please pre-register and get release waivers signed at no cost, by sending an email to dee@skatescene.org. This way we can maintain security, safety, and provide the starting location to biking guests.

Picnic at the Peak

August 14th, 2021 at Quill Hill in Dallas Plantation, Maine. Enjoy a "top of the peak" experience like no other. Have fun picnicking and strolling around on this mountain top. Join Dee at the top from 1:00 pm to 3:00 pm. The Quill Hill website boasts the following about this stellar scenic view. http://www.quillhillmaine.com/ Quill Hill is located off Oddy’s Road on Route 16 in Dallas Plantation between Rangeley and Stratton, Maine and is known for its scenic views. Once you turn on to Oddy’s Road, you will follow a very well maintained dirt road for approximately 12 minutes, or four miles, to the top.

At an elevation of 2,848 ft., visitors are rewarded with a breathtaking 360º view of Tim Pond, Rangeley Lakes, Saddleback, Saddleback Lake, Kennebago, Flagstaff and the Kibby Wind Power project. It is the only mountain in Maine with a 360º view accessible by automobile, bike, ATV, and motorcycle, and it includes a 4,000 ft. wheelchair path between the two scenic views.
