Dorcas Fest canceled, parade iffy

The Dorcas Fest has been canceled for this year, Town Clerk John Myers said this week.

“The Buxton Community Parade is still in question. I am not sure yet,” said Myers, parade chairman.

Last year, the combined festival and parade were held in August.

The Dorcas Society of Hollis and Buxton sponsors the festival that in the past has featured a car show, open Brewster mansion grounds and a concert.

The town sponsors the parade.
