The Annual Frenchboro Lobster Festival was held on Aug. 12 and drew a large crowd.
On the only day of the year that the ferry makes a return trip to Frenchboro, visitors were treated to a unique day of food and entertainment. The Frenchboro Church put on the event, and served over 400 dinners. The meal included a lobster, biscuit, coleslaw, soda and homemade pie.
The day’s activities also included performances by Maine storyteller, John McDonald and the Higgins Family band.
Everyone pitched in. The museum and schoolhouse opened for the day and were staffed by locals who answered questions for visitors and schoolchildren manned a book sale for the benefit of the library.
