Bentley's Saloon Sightings!
Have you or have you seen someone spotted in another state or country wearing a Bentley's Saloon tee, sweatshirt, hat, leather or seen a sticker? Since 2011, we've been collecting these photos and posting them in our photo gallery and highlighting one weekly in our newsletter. Our gallery contains more than 1,200 pictures! Bentley bought the front bar in 2004 and never dreamed it would turn into a destination place! The best is hearing the friendships developed when people meet each other for the first time when they spot someone else wearing a Bentley's tee! We appreciate the support! "Who has more fun than us? .... We do

3RD ANNUAL TRUCK SHOW, AUGUST 17, 2024
==========
Our Third Annual Truck Show's weather was definitely not in our favor as it started to rain at showtime, but we were happy with the turnout of 40 trucks, some Bentley's. The day was grey and cloudy; however, a very special day with a reunion of friends, meeting new friends and the Twisted Tea promo girls who brought the Twisted Tea truck and gave away swag. Bentley took a few guests for a ride in his backwards truck, and Whiskey- 6, (fan voted) New England Country Music “Group of the Year” last year put on an excellent performance on our outside stage!

Wounded Heroes Ride: America The Beautiful
Huge thank you to all the supporters, police escorts, volunteers, our staff and community that joined us Saturday for the America the Beautiful Ride arranged by Pam Payeur with the Wounded Heroes Program of Maine. We visited heroes at the Maine Veteran's Home in Scarborough and returned to the saloon for a beautiful ceremony. To see the smiles on their faces was priceless and to see 200 motorcycles with American flags attached led by twelve police escorts headed back to the saloon was priceless!
July 4th Weekend at Bentleys!
July 4th weekend many happy people celebrated July 4th weekend at our campground and at the saloon. Live bands all weekend with a Tom Petty Tribute Band who also honored Toby Keith and with a Red Solo Cup Sing A Long! We also had another tribute band that rocked the stage, Shot of Poison. Two lucky ladies were winners, one won a set of PBR cornhole boards and the other a pair of tickets to a Kenny Chesney show!!
All Era's Race Car Show June 19th 2024
Our first annual All Eras Race Car Show was June 2013! It's one of our favorite car shows because it's a reunion for all ages of race car drivers and friends! This year Steve Perry with Mainely Karting and Archie St. Hilaire honored former track owner of Lee USA Speedway Red McDonald. Also honored, Les Sanborn "The Rodfather" who was a huge supporter to the racing community and the saloon car shows. He's dearly missed!
Another shout out of appreciation to Seymour Racing Team. Bentley will be at the Boston Louie Seymour Memorial Race July 13, 2024! No he's not racing! He's supporting friends and Jake Trainor Racing.
So many stories shared and smiles!
