Lincoln County Historical Association will host Kermess from 5 to 7:30 p.m. Sunday, July 23, on the grounds of the historic Pownalborough Court House in Dresden, an LCHA site located on the Kennebec River. This year’s event, Kermess at the Pownalborough Court House, will feature an old-fashioned pig roast (or a vegetarian option), with entertainment by the music duo Castlebay.
