Bubble Football teams will open the weekend’s events when they take the field against Waterville. The first game starts at 4 p.m. and the second around 6 p.m. The lobster bake will be served 5-7 p.m., and at 6 p.m. the Brewer Hometown Band – the official city ambassadors – will take the stage to perform old-time classics.
At 6:30 p.m. Friday, Sept. 10, Mayor Archie Verow will announce the citizen and business of the year, and a family street dance, with music provided by disc jockey Dana Wilson, begins at 7 p.m.
“This year, we’re holding the fireworks early, at 8 p.m.,” Hanscom said. “The main reason is Alan Jackson is playing on the waterfront in Bangor and we’re timing it with intermission.”
Most of Saturday’s events are geared toward children – the popular money grab, children’s carnival, water slide and ice skating – but there also are events with appeal for teens, adults and families, Hanscom said.
As usual, the daylong events start with pancakes served between 7 and 9:30 a.m. by the Brewer Kiwanis Club.
The breakfast costs $4 for adults, $2 for children.
“You can’t beat that,” Hanscom said.
Local farmers will be on hand selling homegrown vegetables and other items. The Brewer Historical Society will hold its second annual yard sale, and the Brewer Police Department will hold a bike auction at 10 a.m. “The bicycles will be on display for viewing one hour before the auction,” Brewer police Lt. Christopher Martin said in an e-mail. “Thirty-five abandoned bicycles were recovered by the Brewer Police Department during the past two years.”
