EAST MILLINOCKET – Take one magic show, add a spaghetti supper, mix with food and craft booths, toss in a live auction and a cash give-away and it all adds up to a lively day at St. Peter’s annual Lawn Party, Aug. 1, from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. on the grounds of the church at 58 Cedar St., East Millinocket.
The live auction, a new addition to the lawn party, continues to attract donations of all types and kinds, including such bid-able items as a Sunbeam table top grill, a table top ceramic Christmas Tree, inflatable Christmas scenes, a Craftsman aerator and electric roasters.
