It's time for the Dresden SummerFest on Sunday, July 10 from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. at the Pownalborough Court House!

This year's event features the Abenaki Nation Fish River Singers performing traditional dance and song. And the Steamboat Gypsy Band will be playing American folk, and Dresden's own Accordion Dude will lead a sing-a-long.

Take a horse-drawn carriage ride with Hideaway Farms, visit the goat petting zoo, and take a tour of the courthouse and adjacent nature trails.

Games set up for SummerFest include croquet, bean bag toss, a hay scramble and … hula-hooping!

To keep you energized, the Fire Department will be cooking up burgers and a hot dog BBQ or bring your own picnic lunch.

No summer fest event would be complete without a pie judging contest! All proceeds will be donated to the Richmond Food Pantry.

Community groups and businesses will have booths: Gryffon Ridge Spices, jewelry, physical therapy demonstrations, body juggling, a Steak Shack, and many others.

There will also be a Spirit of America awards presentation.

Dresden's SummerFest is sponsored by Dresden Arts and Recreation Committee and the Lincoln County Historical Association.
