The Fryeburg Fair is gone as quickly as it arrived. I’m always amazed watching the set up process and the quick disappearing act. It takes a lot of people, working together, to create the wonderful fair atmosphere for thousands to enjoy. The people I worked with at the Agricultural Center and those walking through it were excited to be back after the closure of 2020. Leaf peepers and fair goers alike were lucky to have mostly great weather and perfect temperatures. I’m already looking forward to next year.
It’s that time of year again when the Fryeburg Recreation Department partners up with the Raider Pride Booster Club to raffle off tickets to the Patriots vs. Jaguars game on Jan. 2, 2022. Raffle tickets are $20 and can be purchased through the recreation departments newly set-up Venmo by searching Fryeburg_rec. If you purchase a ticket using Venmo, you can fill out the Google form online and they will write your ticket(s) up for you. You can also purchase and fill them out in person at the community center.
