Otisfield parade is planned

OTISFIELD — Dress in some fun red, white and blue garb to join in the excitement at the Otisfield Fourth of July Parade on Wednesday, July 4. Enter a float, an antique vehicle, fire truck, decorate a bike or a baby stroller or dress up and walk in the parade.

All the fun will starts at 7:30 a.m. with a free community breakfast at the Spurrs Corner Church. Parade lineup starts at 9 a.m. south of Spurr’s Corner Fire Station on Route 121 in Cutler's field. Parade time is 10 a.m. and it leads to the Spurr’s Corner Fire Station.

The fun continues at the fire station following the parade with a 4th of July, red, white and blue water salute by the fire department, music, bake sale, watermelon, popsicles and water. No fireworks are permitted during the parade and town 4th of July celebration.

Once again there will be a bake sale. Items for the bake sale are welcomed; just drop them off at the Spurrs Corner Fire Station the morning of the parade. 2012 Otisfield Fourth of July T-shirts, adult and children sizes, will be available for purchase at the fire station. All proceeds raised are for the Otisfield Fire Association.

For more information, call Joanie Jacobs at 539-9969.
