Calling all Bengals! The University of Maine at Fort Kent (UMFK) Alumni Association is thrilled to announce the inaugural “UMFK Alumni Day,” set for Sunday, Sept. 7, at Hadlock Field in Portland, Maine. This exciting event, held in partnership with the Portland Sea Dogs, promises an unforgettable day filled with camaraderie, community spirit, and baseball action!

Join fellow alumni, friends, and family from across Maine as we gather to cheer on the Sea Dogs and proudly showcase our Bengal pride. Whether you’re from the Fort Kent area, Central Maine, or the greater Portland region, this special day provides the perfect opportunity to reconnect, make new memories, and celebrate UMFK.

For your convenience, UMFK has arranged a comfortable, bathroom-equipped Cyr Bus Line charter bus departing from the UMFK campus at 5 a.m., returning immediately after the game concludes. A second pickup location will be available in Bangor to accommodate our Central Maine alumni. Seats are limited to 55, so reserve early to secure your spot!

“We’re thrilled to offer this unique opportunity to unite our UMFK community from all parts of Maine,” said UMFK Executive Director of Advancement and Alumni Relations Michael Elliott. “What better way to reconnect and share your Bengal pride than enjoying a Sea Dogs baseball game together?”
