ason. And after a year’s hiatus due to the pandemic, we’re happy to report that one of the local traditions coming back is the fantastically delicious and fun eighth annual North Conway Strawberry Festival. You can feast on strawberry shortcake and strawberry smoothies under the tent at the First Church of Christ, Congregational/Vaughan Community Services today from 11 a.m.-3 p.m.
Musical entertainment will be provided by Eric Rollnick and Mango Groove, a local steel drum band, and there will be local vendors, a raffle, children’s games and hand-dipped chocolate-covered strawberries from the adjacent Bavarian Chocolate Haus.
