Join us for dinner and live music as you watch the sunset over Lake Winnipesaukee from our beautiful outdoor terrace! Come with your dinner partners and an appetite for classic American fare with unique twists. We were awarded “Best Music Nights in NH” in 2018 by NH Magazine!

Music Nights are by reservation only and require a $10 per-person cover charge paid online in advance. Your reservation guarantees your table for the whole evening, so you can mingle on the terrace, at the bar, peruse the exhibit gallery, or admire the historic horse stables and always have your seat to come back to. We recommend making your reservation at least 1-2 weeks in advance, as Music Nights tend to sell out quickly!

Important Details:

Live music is played from 5:30-8:30 PM, with a short break for the musician.
Upon arrival, your table is yours for the entire evening!
Payment for your dinner and any drinks will be processed via a dining check with your server before you leave.

Sunset Paddle to Bowman Island July 10th 7-10pm 

Friday July 10th 7-10pm | Squam Lakes Association | 534 US Route 3 Holderness

Little compares to the calm of a midsummer’s night on the lake with the sun whipping its last rays off the surface of the water and a gibbous moon moving in from the curtains to keep the lake alight for a few more hours. Join LRCC member Elijah for a sunset paddle out to Bowman island on July 10th as we restart in-person Adventure Ecology programs while keeping our physical distance. We'll meet at the SLA around 7:00 pm and plan to be floating by 7:30 pm. At Bowman we can get out and enjoy sunset rock and maybe a snack before heading back in the moonlight.  We're excited to start getting outside with you all again and can't wait to see you there!

Audience: This paddle is for all ages who are comfortable with kayaking for 1-2 hours in the dark. Minors must be accompanied by an adult.

10th Annual Fairyland Festival July 10th

Friday July 10th 8am- Sunday July 11th 11am | The Children's Center | 180 S Main St, Wolfeboro

Due to COVID-19, we are unable to host the Fairyland Festival in Cate Park this year. But that won’t stop us from celebrating in a new way with 2 special events!

First, The Children’s Center will be hosting an online contest. Contestants are encouraged to make fairy houses and forts from the comfort of their own homes and submit pictures as entries via Facebook Messenger by Friday, July 10. There will be two different categories this year. The first category is the traditional “all natural” approach the festival has promoted for many years. Fairy houses and/or forts should be made completely out of materials found in nature. The second is an arts and crafts category which could include but not limited to building with LEGO or popsicle sticks, paper, fabric, or anything you can find around the house. To vote, visit the Center’s Facebook page July 13-17 and like or comment on your favorite entry. There will be first, second, and third prize winners for each category. Winners will be announced on the Center’s Facebook page Monday, July 22.

Second, The Children’s Center will be organizing a “Fairy Find” on Bridge Falls Path on Saturday, July 11, 9-11am (rain or shine!). Starting at Back Bay by Foss Field and walking the path to Whitten Neck Road, families will search for hidden fairies and pirates along the way. Kid masks and prizes for all who participate!
