Buxton parade a hit

Crowds lined River Road Aug. 12 to watch the town’s annual parade with youth groups, vintage vehicles, police and fire trucks and more.

The parade featured 50 entries, according to Town Clerk John Myers.

At parade’s end, a gathering outside Tory Hill Church sang “Happy Birthday” to Assistant Town Clerk Angela Michie.

Two Bonny Eagle Little League softball teams were a hit in Saturday’s community parade. The Maine state champion U-12 team played in the New England Regionals Championship and was the runner-up, narrowly missing out on the World Series. The U-10 All-Star team won two games at the regional competition in Pennsylvania. Robert Lowell / American Journal
