Join MBTA in September for our annual Fall Convention!  

Friday afternoon and evening, September 9:

CRUISE SOLD OUT! The MBTA Fall Convention will kick off on Friday afternoon, September 9, with a cruise of beautiful Camden Harbor, 3 to 5 pm. After the cruise, we will head to the Samoset for a reception and traditional Downeast Lobster Bake, followed by a live and/or silent auction.  

Saturday morning, September 10:

Saturday morning will feature a golf tournament at the beautiful Samoset Resort Golf Club,  with an 8:30 am shotgun start. Golf and non-golfers lunch registration: MBTA Fall Golf registration. An awards luncheon after the golf tournament will conclude the MBTA Convention events; however, those who wish to enjoy the Camden-Rockport area on their own may enjoy the discounted room rate which the Samoset has extended to Saturday night as well.

So much to do!

The beautiful midcoast area offers many opportunities for recreation, culture, shopping and more. There is hiking in Camden Hills State Park and kayaking, sailing and other water sports. Boutiques, shops, galleries and museums abound throughout the area.  Museum, chocolate making, and winery or brewery tours available.  MBTA will have a list of activities available in the area. 

Room reservations due August 14:

Please reserve your hotel reservation by August 14 at the Samoset with the MBTA room rate ($259-$309 per night, plus a $30 resort fee) here:  Maine Better Transportation Association.
