Congratulations, Swiss Bear Downtown Development Corporation for creating your NEW blog!
“We are gearing up for MUMFEST to include the new venue of SeaFair, the 228 foot yacht with three floors of art from local, area and national artist. It will be docked at the Hilton marina, arriving in New Bern on the 10th of October. We invited the Arts Council to partner with us for a Thursday night reception which will be a fundraiser for both of our organizations. We are also expanding the Boat Show, which will now be called Outdoor Life, to bring in businesses that deal with outdoor recreation…biking, kayaking, stand-up boards, fishing etc. We believe it will attract a lot of interest and are encouraging local businesses to participate as vendors, have demos and displays. Every year we add something new to keep the festival fresh and still have old favorites. With the addition of SeaFair and Outdoor Life we should attract record crowds.” – Susan Moffat-Thomas
