Olde New England Days in North Woodstock

The Olde New England Day celebration features artisans and crafters lining Main Street, along with many businesses holding sidewalk sales. But, that's not all!

Here's what's happening:

Town-Wide Arts and Crafts Festival (I'll be near Fadden's General Store selling my photography, come by and say Hi)
If you've never been, then you've missed out on this spectacular annual event. The Olde New England Day Arts and Crafts Festival showcases some of the finest art in New England. From oil and watercolor paintings to forged steel and wood carving demonstrations, there's something for everyone. Not only do you get to see and purchase fine arts and crafts, you get to meet the artists that painstakingly create their unique works.
The sidewalks, the parking areas, the sidestreets, and the "common" in Woodstock, NH bring you back to Olde New England this year on Saturday, June 27th from 10am until 6pm.

Entertainment for Kids of All Ages
Olde New England Days is all about family fun. This year we have much more to entertain our youngsters. Take a break from the shopping and dining, and let your kids run loose under the guidance of our Future Business Leaders of America. Many of the "kids shows" will be taking place at the town common. Here's a sampling of the activities taking place:
Clown Show
Magic Show
Pluck a Duck
Puppet Show
Kids Music and Dancing
Kids Games and Prizes
Baloon Animals
Face Painting
Pie Eating Contest
Sack Races
Dunk Tank

Fire Truck Rides

Who doesn't love the thrill of riding on a firetruck?
Kids of all ages have at one time or another dreamed of being a professional firefighter. Now you can live a part of that dream at Olde New England Days, this June. Wear the hats, sound the siren, and buzz up main street on a vintage Woodstock Engine #3.

Blazin' Barbecue by the Woodstock FD
Every year the Women's Auxilary and Woodstock Fire Department put on an absolutely 'Blazin' Barbecue. Olde New England cooking that will stick to your ribs can be smelled for miles around.
Hot dogs, hamburgers, ribs, corn on the cob, and other delectible treats are served from 10am until 4pm.
