Boothbay Harbor Windjammer Days is Coming!
Boothbay Harbor's annual WIndjammer Days festival is nearly here and boy, am I excited! Beginning June 24th, it is an action packed week of the kind of small-town events that are becoming increasingly hard to find in America. There are all sorts of contests, from oyster shucking to lobster eating to cod fish races, all topped off by a massive tug of war and Windjammer's Got Talent competition. Sit on the front porch at Bayberry House and watch the iconic street parade go up Townsend Avenue, Opera House concerts as well as free concerts at the Whale Park will get everyone's toes a' tappin'! There are other events too numerous to mention. The jewel of the week is always the arrival of a flotilla of tall-masted sailing ships in the harbor. Watch out, however, because the pirates of the Dark Rose may sneak in as well!
If you have never been to WIndjammer Days, make your plans now to attend this year's events. You certainly won't be disappointed yoiu did!
