There is definitely something for everyone during 2 Days of Summer Fun at The Curran Homestead, part of Orrington’s Old Home Week celebration Saturday, July 23, and Sunday, July 24, at the Homestead on Fields Pond Road.

Saturday’s feature is the Olde-Fashioned Country Fair, and Sunday’s is Maine’s 16th annual Open Farm Day.

If you haven’t been there lately, you’re in for a visual treat, I’ve been told, since the facility is now all painted and sporting a new picket fence.

Admission each day is $5 for adult contributors and members, $8 for adult nonmembers and $3 for students.

All activities from rides, to music, games and demonstrations are free, with the exception of the noon barbecues, fresh-squeezed lemonade, horseshoe-pitching tournament, bean-hole bean supper, photos and barn dance.

Board president Karen Marsters wants you to know that your interest and support, now and during the year, help cover the cost of restoring the farm that so many people enjoy year round.

Guest speakers will be Capt. Phil Trevino of Augusta, discussing his experiences in Iraq and what it is like to be in the military today, and classmate Robert Smith, a well-known Skowhegan maple syrup producer.
