OQUOSSOC — The Rangeley Lakes Region Historical Society will host a complimentary bean supper at Bald Mountain Camps 125 Bald Mountain Road, June 13 beginning with a cocktail hour at 5 p.m. Historical Society members, volunteers and anyone wishing to learn more about the society’s upcoming events and efforts are invited to attend.
Anyone with an interest in potential membership or volunteer opportunities is invited as well. The evening will feature live music by the “Sandy River Ramblers” playing their original songs about the region and its colorful mystique as well as some old favorites. There also will be a silent auction, door prizes and a cash bar. Those planning to attend are encouraged to bring a favorite dessert to share for the potluck dessert following the meal of baked beans, hot dogs, biscuits and coleslaw.
“Our membership, volunteers and friends in the Rangeley community are the true heartbeat of all our programs and efforts at the Historical Society, and we felt this would be a great way to kick-off the summer, share what we are up to and to say thank you,” shared RLRHS Executive Director Bill Pierce.
The event replaces the annual RLRHS Potluck, traditionally held for many years in the undercroft of the Episcopal Church. “We are so grateful that our friends at Bald Mountain Camps were willing to help sponsor an evening where we could get together and have some fun as a group and celebrate our work together,” added Pierce.
Those wishing to attend this fun community event are asked to RSVP by 4 p.m. Friday, June 9, by calling 207864-3091 or by email: wapierce1@gmail.com. Seating is limited.
