CARTHAGE — Carthage Heritage Day will be held on Saturday, July 26, at Rocky Mountain Terrain Park, 420 Winter Hill Road.

For information and directions, call John Steele at 207-272-8012.

There will be family fun all day. Events include: free child care, bounce house, face painting, horseshoe tournament, two bands playing, a pig roast starting at 4:30, fireworks and much more.

The first band, L & D Country, will play from 10 a.m. to noon. The band features Linda Lee from Weld and Dona Whittemore from Farmington.

Musician Denny Breau will perform from noon to 3 p.m. Breau’s rhythmically flawless and dazzlingly clear style allows him to do amazing and stunning things with a six-string guitar.

He first draws in an audience with a finely arranged melody and then slides effortlessly into scorching finger work that sets ears aflame. The lighting fast guitar lines that seem almost humanly impossible to accomplish are balanced with those that have a quiet intimacy and wrap tenderly around his carefully crafted songs.

He mixes genres with ease — folk, Delta blues, country and jazz — “creating a totally accessible musical melange that captivates as it entertains,” according to Lucky Clark writing for the Kennebec Journal.
