COMING WEEKENDS - STUFF TO SCHEDULE

This coming Saturday night - the 15th - will be 50's & 60's Night at Clewley Farm Restaurant. Buffet Dinner with food from those good 'ol days (Mac&Cheese, hamburgers, more) and Dola and Company will be back at the microphone. Anyone still have a poodle skirt and saddle shoes? And can you still fit into it which is more to the point isn't it? :-)

And there will be a Turkey Dinner at Comins Hall on the 15th as well. Guess there'll be no reason for anyone to go to bed hungry that night. :-D

Saturday the 22nd, Market Street Plaza in downtown Bangor will be closed off to vehicle traffic (similar to the way it was for the Sidewalk Art Show) for Blues & Brews - a first time event. Several blues bands will be performing and various micro-breweries will be setting up in the area. Bangor police and the City Council have signed off for the event which will allow people to buy the brews and walk the area listening to the performing Blues Bands at the same time. The event is being sponsored by BangorMetro magazine. More info to come in future blogs.

The Eddington Farmer's Market may be ending before the scheduled date of September 27. It seems the lead vendor who's been absent two Sundays to date will also be absent on Labor date (as will a second vendor) in order to fulfill a previous commitment to appear at the Blue Hill Fair. I expect the matter will be on the August 25 Eddington Selectmen's agenda. Buyers are looking for fresh vegetables every Sunday at the Market. Too bad none of our local farmers have chosen to participate. Even with the excess rain this year there has to be some local produce.

  1. BTW - the buffet on the 15th at Clewley Farm Restaurant will be $12.95 at the door. The show starts at 7pm but food starts earlier. My suggestion... Plan to be eating around 6pm or a tad earlier. That way you get the best seats in the house.
