Camden harbormaster gearing up for annual summer welcome barbecue
Summer in Camden can be busy, both on the water and throughout downtown, so harbormaster Steve Pixley is hosting a welcome barbecue at the public landing Saturday, June 7, and the community is invited to bring a dish and join the potluck celebration – before everybody is too busy to stop and relax.

CAMDEN — At the height of summer, Camden’s downtown and waterfront are bustling places. Especially during the tourist season there’s plenty of great shopping and dining choices, and there’s always a schooner or lobster boat waiting to get people out on Penobscot Bay for a real taste of Maine’s windjammer life.
And just before all the craziness totally sets in for the locals who make it all happen for visitors and returning summer residents, Camden Harbormaster Steve Pixley likes to throw a Harbor Barbecue to welcome the season and the nice weather Saturday, June 7 from 4:30 to 7:30 p.m.
This year’s barbecue, as always, is a potluck, so bring a dish to share with your friends. There will be a grill or two on hand to cook items.
The Harbor Dogs Bluegrass Band will be performing on a float in the harbor, said Pixley.
“This barbecue is for anyone who enjoys reconnecting before it gets busy this summer,” said Pixley. “It’s open to the community and everybody is welcome to join us.”
