     "Over the last few years, our annual Craft Fair has helped Falmouth Rotary raise hundreds of thousands of dollars in scholarship funds for local high school students and local charitable organizations," fair organizer Rudy Hunter said.

     In conjunction with the Craft Fair, lunch food service will be offered, including traditional hot dogs, hamburgers, cheeseburgers, and sodas.

     For both days of the Craft Fair, entertainment will be provided by the Surf Drive Band, Shining Sea Strummers, Turning Point Dance Studio, the Andy Sexton Trio, and vocalist Samantha Bauer.

      Admission to the craft fair is $3 per person.  Children 12 years of age and under are admitted free.
