 | BURN PERMITS
Effective April 1, 2023 North Yarmouth Fire Rescue will only be issuing burn permits through the State of Maine's online Burn Permits system. You must wait until 09:00am each day to obtain a permit. This is due to the system predicting the class day for each day. You may also obtain a permit after 09:00am everyday at North Yarmouth Fire Rescue or at Town Office after 09:00am during normal days open.
Permits are valid for only one day only between the hours of 9:00AM to 11:00 PM on the day you are issued the permit. Before you are issued the permit, you must acknowledge the conditions of the permit and the allowed burn times for the day. When the permit is issued, the allowed burn times are stated on the permit and the printed copy. |

 | Barn Dance with Spruce Rooster | Saturday, August 26 | 7 to 9 p.m.
Wescustogo Hall & Community Center Multigenerational. Free. No registration needed. Put your dancing shoes on for a fun evening with Spruce Rooster. Beginner and experienced dancers are welcome. Spruce Rooster is a string band that plays old time music, the traditional music for square dances. Tunes are usually played with some vigor. Old time music originated in Appalachia upon immigration of the Scots and Irish and thus predates bluegrass. The musicians in Spruce Rooster are: Mike Bendzela- fiddle and banjo; Emma Scott-fiddle; Pete Scott- guitar and mandolin; Dan DuBourdieu- bass and guitar; and Alan Davis-banjo. The barn dance will be called by Kathryn Larson. All dances will be taught and will be suitable for adults and children. Kathryn may call circle, contra, waltzes, and square dances. It’s expected that mistakes will be made. No worry, neighbors will help straighten it out. Offered in partnership with Cumberland and North Yarmouth Community Recreation |
