Main Street is Hopping with Coffee Festival Preparations!

Nate, 13, and Derek, 11, who work with their Dad at his Main Street shop, LaBelle’s Shoe Repair, sneak in some intense training for the coffee bean sack race.  The race will be one of the premier contests of the Java Games, a family-friendly component of the inaugural, statewide, N. H. Coffee Festival to be held Saturday September 14, 2013. Come visit Downtown Laconia from 1-5pm and take in the sights, sounds and (of course) the aroma of this amazing event! Live music, delicious food, fun activity and vendors will be the order of the day -- along with your favorite coffee order!
