To all of our incredible members who went above and beyond for this year’s Windjammer Days — thank you! From decorating floats to cheering on the sidelines, your energy, creativity, and community spirit made this our biggest and most vibrant parade yet.

A special thank-you to all who participated in the parade and brought so much joy to our streets.

This year’s entries were truly outstanding, and we’re thrilled to announce the winners:

1st Place: Boothbay Region Land Trust

2nd Place: Carousel Music Theater

3rd Place: Conley’s Garden Center

and Honorable Mention: Boothbay Baptist Church

We’re also grateful to our wonderful judges — Sharon Rose of NEWSCENTER Maine, The Carousel Marina (our 2024 Lighted Boat Parade Winners), and the Richmond Fire Department (representing the Lighted Fire Truck Parade champions, Doray). Your time and enthusiasm helped us celebrate the best of the Boothbay Region.

From the Kora Karts to the iconic L.L. Bean Boot and so many more local favorites, the parade was packed with memorable moments — and we couldn’t have done it without you.

Finally, a huge thank-you to our Parade Sponsor, First National Bank, for their generous support.

Here’s to community pride, small-town charm, and big-time heart.
