Great Salt Bay Community School’s annual Harvest Fair is Saturday, Oct. 27 at the school at 559 Main St. in Damariscotta from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., rain or shine. This event is the sole fundraiser for the GSB eighth grade’s spring trip to Boston.

The much-loved event promises to have something for everyone. The famous haunted house and the good old “GSB jail” will keep the kids happy. There will be games of skill and chance, and no one plays without winning a prize. Delicious hot lunches will be for sale, including oyster chowder, haddock chowder, and beef stew, and a variety of yummy muffins, cookies and cheesecake will be available, too.

A silent auction will have amazing goods and services generously donated by people and area businesses. Among the items are a small hooked lobster rug; Stephen King’s “The Dark Man,” signed by illustrator Glenn Chadbourne – with the winning bidder receiving an original illustration of their choice in the cover of the book by the artist; a gift basket to The Animal House; an overnight stay in a coastal Maine island cottage; four hours of housecleaning; and an original logo design. The silent auction will take place in the GSB gymnasium and is open to the public.
