THOMASTON — Pack a picnic lunch and head to the Green! Everyone in Thomaston is invited to a picnic gathering on the Thomaston Green (former Maine State Prison site) with live music on Saturday, Oct. 10, from 11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m..

All are welcome.

Bring your own lunch, chairs or blanket and masks to visit — safely distanced — with friends and neighbors. Children and their families are especially invited for an art activity and other Covid-safe, family games (everyone should bring their own face masks, according to a news release).

“All Lone Rangers (with masks) are welcome, too!” the release said.

Live music in the Gazebo will be provided by Thomaston’s Playin’ Possum (David, Gigi, James and Peter Hynd) and All That Jazz (Bill Hahn, Renny Stackpole, Susan Davenport and Hank Lunn).

“Please join us for this informal, Covid-safe, artful, farewell summer/hello fall, celebration of community!” said the release.

In case of inclement weather the rain date is Sunday, October 11.
