Come Celebrate With Us - Join the Floating Parade!

 
On Sunday, June 23 at 2:30 pm, The Lincolnville Bi-Centennial Committee will be sponsoring a floating parade on Norton's Pond. The new boat-launching ramp at Breezemere Park will be formally dedicated, and parade prizes will be awarded in categories that will include almost anything that floats.  Individual Lake and Pond Associations are invited to enter a representative float, but any or all guests who wish to participate will also be welcomed.
 
The Park will be heavily used for Bi-centennial activities from Friday the 21st in the evening, until late afternoon on Sunday, the 23rd. Boaters should note that the ramp at Breezemere Park may be closed for launchings and take-outs various times during that week-end, and anyone who possibly can is encouraged to find an alternative spot. The Committee will post any schedule of closings well in advance at the Park bulletin-board. PLEASE NOTE - Parking for trailers will be very limited in the Center, and there will be none at the Park itself all week-end long, probably from Friday afternoon through Sunday evening – details available later.
 
Ken Bailey is going to patrol the Pond all day Sunday – and possibly Saturday as well, and advises that all boating rules will be strictly enforced. In the interest of safety, it would be very much appreciated if those of you who enjoy tubing and water skiing would refrain from these activities on Saturday the 22nd and Sunday the 23rd, when traffic on the pond and at the park could be quite heavy.
 
Anyone who would like to volunteer for this event is welcome to contact "The Boat Parade" at pond@starband.net or at 131 Marriner's Drive, Lincolnville, 04849.
