WISCASSET — The town invites everyone to participate in daylong “Treasures of the Wiscasset” activities planned for the Fourth of July.
The festivities will begin at 10 a.m. with the annual parade which will wind from Hooper Street to Federal Street along U.S. Route 1, finishing on Middle Street.
The town is seeking floats, bands, antique autos, and other parade participants. Parade registrations can be accessed at the Town Office or online.
After the parade, activities along Water Street will include an antique car show and petting zoo. At 11:45 a.m., pirates are expected to “attack” Wiscasset Harbor then invade the waterfront for a “Pirate Holiday.”
Evening activities will begin at 5 p.m. with a “Tall Tales” contest at the Recreational Pier and continue with an Open-Mic night with local musical talent and carnival games on the pier sponsored by the Woolwich-Wiscasset Baptist Church.
The band “Peter Witham’s Band and the Cosmic Zombies” will perform at 7 p.m., and the evening will end with fireworks over the Sheepscot River at 9:15 pm.
