Wiscasset Parks and Recreation Director Duane Goud told selectmen over Zoom Tuesday, Jan. 19, due to COVID-19 crowd limits, neither Winterfest nor the annual father-daughter dance can run on their usual dates. He was not sure Winterfest will happen this year.
Only 50 people can be indoors, and the dance draws 125-175 people, Goud said. As for Winterfest, which Selectman Sarah Whitfield asked about, Goud said: “I’m not sure if we’re going to be able to have it . If we do, we’re going to push it off. It might be toward the end of February.” He is waiting for any updates to the guidelines, he said. Winterfest’s trivia night gets 75-80 people, Goud noted.

David Pope said rediscovering the solitude of the outdoors is one of the best things about hiking a network of trails behind Wiscasset Community Center and Morris Farm. Visitors to the vast land preserve minutes from Route 1 can see majestic white pines, flourishing hemlock groves, cascading streams, unusual glacial erratics, tranquil ponds and more. There are just a few problems. Parts of the trail system have become overgrown, trail markers are missing and a map needs updating.
