WATERVILLE — The Central Maine ATV Club hosted its ATV Glow Ride on Aug. 17, with approximately 300 machines and more than 1,000 participants.
The parade of brightly lit ATVs made its way through Waterville and the Fairfield trail system towards Norridgewock, looping back through Fairfield and parts of Oakland before finishing in Waterville.

The club joined forces with the Mid-Maine Chamber of Commerce to help organize and promote the ride. A marketing grant from the Kennebec Valley Tourism Council helped attract riders from throughout Maine and a variety of New England states, according to a news release from Mike Guarino, community engagement specialist at the chamber.
Proceeds from the event were split between the Central Maine ATV Club and the Fairfield Food Pantry, supporting their mission to provide essential services to local families in need.

We do not enable comments on everything — exceptions include most crime stories, and coverage involving personal tragedy or sensitive issues that invite personal attacks instead of thoughtful discussion.
For those stories that we do enable discussion, our system may hold up comments pending the approval of a moderator for several reasons, including possible violation of our guidelines. As the Maine Trust’s digital team reviews these comments, we ask for patience.
Comments are managed by our staff during regular business hours Monday through Friday and limited hours on Saturday and Sunday. Comments held for moderation outside of those hours may take longer to approve.
