Fourth of July Community Picnic

Date: Sunday, July 4, 2010
Brief Description: This free event begins at 11:30 AM on the side lawn of the Dr. Moses Mason House (14 Broad Street). Bring your lunch and after the presentation of colors and the National Anthem, enjoy a two-hour concert by the Portland Brass Quintet.
Details (don't forget the WHO, WHAT, WHERE, WHY, WHEN...):

Dr. Moses Mason began this Fourth of July tradition in the 1850s and the Bethel Historical Society carries it on today. In case of rain, the concert and picnic will be held at the Middle Intervale Meetinghouse (1816) on Intervale Road, approximately four miles down river from Bethel Hill village.  Free, but donations appreciated. (After the concert, visit the exhibits, period rooms and Museum Shop in the Society's Robinson and Mason houses.)
