Doug, Maine Lobster Festival is Aug 4-8. Great time but they better book early. Not many hotels around to handle the crowds. But, on the upside (for some) there are two bars overlooking the grounds. For you golfers, look up Samoset Resort , just down the street. A little side trip of interest a couple of miles in the other direction is Owls Head Transportation Museum And , on a personal note, it would be interesting to see a few JCers try the Crate Race.

Crate Race
Contestants from all over take chances navigating a string of 50 partially submerged lobster crates. The winner is the person who stays upright over the largest number of crates. In recent years a young man from Austria won, with over 2000 crates crossed before he fell into the cold waters of the harbor.
