The fun continues on Saturday, November 24 from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. with wreaths, music, food, raffles and shopping at the Casco Village Church UCC; vendors and more shopping at The Community Center; homemade arts and crafts at Country Village Assisted Living and a delicious lobster roll and corn chowder luncheon (hot dogs also available) at the Church from 11 a.m. to 1:30 p.m.

Perhaps you would enjoy a horse-drawn historical carriage tour of Casco Village courtesy of Carousel Horse Farm; have a Christmas portrait taken. . . go back in time and imagine Christmas in the Village long ago. . . leaving from the center of town 9:30 a.m. to 1 p.m.

So shop local, save gas, and support your community! It's all happening in the Village, 940-941 Meadow Road (Route 121) in Casco. For more information or to sign up for a vendor table, call 627-4282 or e-mail cvc@fairpoint.net.
