Default Poor planning

In Wolfeboro's part. If all events apply for a permit. This probably would not have happen!

Default Busy in Wolfeboro

Say BroadHopper, almost everything in Wolfeboro needs a permit, particularly events such as this coming weekend.

Did you ever think that maybe people just like to attend those type of events and will tolerate the traffic and congestion nevertheless?

Have a nice quiet weekend where ever you spend it.

I like to be first in line for the hospital street fair. It is like a bunch of yard sales in one place.

Default Art show as well

Just to add to the congestion, the Peter Ferber "Meet the Artist" reception and show at the Art Place is also scheduled for this Saturday. Peter's work will be on display for most of August.

Yeah, but it's difficult to have the tourist-generated revenues without the tourists.

The worst tourists are the ones who decided to live here year round!

Default Docks

Can anyone tell me?????
I'm planning on heading into Wolfeboro town docks Friday (8/7) early afternoon.
Will they be open to the public as usual? I was not aware of any of these events.

If want even More Stuff to do this weekend, go to the "woody" boat show in Alton on Saturday. Check out the "Events" at the NH Antique Boat Museun (Wolfeboro) website.
