55th Canterbury Fair: fun for the whole family Tilton Masons plan breakfast and bake sale
CANTERBURY — An annual volunteer-run celebration of small-town community, this year’s Canterbury Fair will once again kickoff with the Woodchuck Classic 5k Road Race, and also include traditional Morris dancing, children’s games on the green, a huge What-Not “tag” Sale, a used book sale, antiques, live music, canoe polo on the fire pond, juried crafts, a pie baking contest, food for every taste, and a special drumming performance. Always the last Saturday in July, this year’s Fair is on July 27 from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. in Canterbury Center. Many local organizations lend a hand to make the Fair a success, including the Sunset Mountain Fish and Game Club, which provides a chicken barbeque. “The secret BBQ sauce has been a crowd pleaser for many years,” said Canterbury Fair Chair, Lisa Carlson. Tickets are available for sale throughout the morning of the Fair. For the second year, a pie-baking contest will be held. Three categories of home-baked pie will be
evaluated by local “celebrity judges” who will taste pies in the blueberry, apple, and the “wild berry” (open) category. After the judging, the pies will be sold as desserts at the Chicken Barbeque and at the baked goods table. Music will fill Canterbury Center for most of the day with Dudley and Jacqueline Laufman accompanying the Morris Dancers, as well as local groups “The Fiddling Thomsons,” “Home Folks,” and a special drumming performance this year. The Canterbury Historical Society uses Fair Day to open an exhibit in the Elkins Memorial Building, with this year’s installation entitled “Canterbury Through the Years 1900-2000.” Their one-room schoolhouse is also open for the Fair. Parking is available nearby for a $5 suggested donation, with free bus service to the Fair. Canterbury Center is closed to vehicular traffic during Fair Hours. Net proceeds from the Fair benefit the Canterbury Fund, which aids local families in need.
Common will be transformed for a day into a bustling fairground for the 61st Annual Hebron Fair on Saturday, July 27. One of Newfound Lake region’s most popular summer events, the fair will open with a church bell ringing at 9 a.m. A silent auction starts at 11 a.m., the live auction begins at 1 p.m., and the chicken barbecue will be at 5:30 p.m. It is rain or shine and admission is free. Proceeds benefit the Union Congregational Church. Over 100 craftspeople will be selling their wares. In addition to the many crafts, there will be a variety of delicious foods, including a melting pot of homemade baked beans at the lunch tent; a huge selection of rummage in the church basement; white elephant items; used books and puzzles; t-shirts; plants and much more. The children will enjoy pony rides, face paint-
providing great entertainment for all ages. The auction will feature a large selection of used furniture and other great stuff. Under the big striped tent, starting at 1 p.m., Rev. “Honest John” Fischer will be taking bids on fantastic pre-owned treasures, as well as a multitude of items and gift certificates generously donated by local businesses. The silent auction runs from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. In addition to all the goodies, preserves, fresh vegetables and plants, gift baskets donated by local businesses will be raffled at the church’s food and plant table. The following day, Sunday, July 28, from 11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m., there will be a $2-a-Bag Sale in the church basement.
