Countdown Is On For Fall Street Faire

The Countdown is on for Sunday's Fall Street Faire, with the kick-off breakfast at 8:30 a.m. at Washington Park where the 5k race registration takes place. Pediatric Dental Associates (PDA) Group is sponsoring the breakfast, free to the public. Faire activities are from noon to 5 pm. Once Upon a Time is on Saturday evening from 6:30-9 and Sartell Electric is telling the world about the Faire via digital billboard.

“It’s important that the Faire grow each year, not only in attendance, but also with new creative events. We have also grown our advertising in a big way,” said Event Chair Sheila Clarke. “A special thank you to Sartell Electric of Reading who is sponsoring digital advertising about the Faire on the billboard near Jordan’s Furniture. This is seen by thousands traveling Routes 128 and 95 daily.”

“And finally,” said Clarke, “We want to remind you about this year’s Once Upon a Time event that will honor volunteers and former volunteers, Street Faire gold and silver sponsors, Reading residents and businesses, and those who make Reading a great place to live and work,” said Clarke. “We hope none of you will be modest about attending this event to honor those who have done so much for the Town, including you, over the years.

“It takes a village and dedication to bring many Town projects to fruition. This celebration is a culmination of many people’s efforts. Reminisce with old friends and new acquaintances to kick off the next day,” Clarke added.

Once Upon a Time will take place at Lee Kimball at 606 Main Street, Suite 3003, in the Northern Bank building on Saturday, Sept. 9 from 6:30-9 pm. Tickets are $50 and include food, beer and wine. Tickets can be purchased at www.fallstreetfaire.com.
