LL Bean Summer Concert Series Schedule!

The 2009 LL Bean Summer Concert Series Schedule is here! As always, concerts are free, but subject to cancellation due to weather. Don't forget to bring your lawn chair and get it set-up right after breakfast to get the best seats. (We recommend eating at 8 AM, Freeporters are quick on the draw to get their chairs set-up!)
