Why the Summer Fest Matters

The Rotary of Damariscotta-Newcastle Summer Fest is more than a day of games and entertainment — it’s a celebration of community and service.

This annual event will bring families, neighbors, and local businesses together for summer fun while raising funds that support Rotary programs and community projects right here in Damariscotta and Newcastle. Every donation, sponsorship, and volunteer hour helps make a real local impact.

By attending, volunteering, or sponsoring, you’re helping create a joyful, inclusive event for families while investing in the well-being of our community. It’s a day to connect, give back, and make lasting memories.

Join us and be part of something that truly makes a difference!
