Chowder not your thing or just want to hang out after? We have plenty of space for you to enjoy family friendly fun in the park. Best part – the Park is always free and open to all. We are planning lots of fun like a tie-dying station; giant lawn games like connect four, corn hole, and jenga; face painting; and Sages Entertainment will be there with bubbles and exciting entertainment for the kids. We will also offer complimentary live music featuring local talent. People can grab delicious favorites like ice cream, fresh squeezed lemonade, hush puppies, and more from The Prop, the onsite kitchen and concessions stand.
