Peter Hammond, a Trustee of the Norway Museum and Historical Society, stands with the actual whistle that was aboard the Penneseewassee Steamer, which was a side-wheel, steam-powered boat that plied the waters of Norway Lake, ferrying passengers, groceries, and supplies for about 25 years, beginning in the 1890s. The whistle will toot at noon on July 9 to commemorate the Marigold Tea Room, which is serving homemade pies and beverages from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. during the Norway Arts Festival.
NORWAY — The Norway Museum and Historical Society will once again transform its meeting room into the Marigold Tea Room during the Norway Music and Arts Festival on Saturday, July 9 from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. The annual fundraiser for the Society will feature homemade pies and a cooling summer drink.
