The Friends of Windjammer Days have announced that a carnival, with fun for all ages, will be included in the festival’s line-up this year.

Kavanaugh Amusements, a family owned and operated carnival operator since 1979, will set up its rides and games at the Boothbay Region High School football field. The excitement begins on June 28 and will run through July 2. Admission to  walk the midway of the carnival is free and attendees can purchase tickets for rides and games. For a complete daily schedule of carnival hours, visit the official Windjammer Days website, www.windjammerdays.org.

In addition, many local and regional artists and crafters will once again be on display at Windjammer Days. On Monday, June 27 from 5-8 p.m., an Artists’ Reception will take place at the Greenleaf Inn. Tickets are $10 and include hors d’oeuvres and a hosted bar. All proceeds will benefit the fireworks fund. Tickets are available at Coco Vivo Art for Living and Greenleaf Inn; for more information call (207) 633-0671.

The artists will display their fine arts and crafts at Artists Alley on the By-Way on Tuesday, June 28 from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. In case of rain, the location will move to the Boothbay Harbor Fire Station, 11 Howard Street.
