February 5 - According to Shelly Crosby, Events Coordinator for the Town of Lincoln, the entertainment for this summer's Homecoming is really starting to take shape! One particular act that has been finalized after months of negotiating is the Rise Above Extreme BMX/Skateboarding Pro Show. This exciting ensemble of characters is known nationally for stunt work and professional gigs such as: X-Games, The Mt. Dew Action Sports Tour, MTV, MTV2, CBS, NBC, ABC, Camp Woodward, The CBS Early Show, Great American Fundraising, QSP Fundraising, Levis, CVS, Pepsi, Ball Park Beef Franks, The Wasserman Media Group, Clear Channel, Live Nation, NBA, NFL, Time-Warner,to name only a few. They'll be in the parade on July 17th as well as performing two shows that afternoon in Veteran's Memorial Square.

According to Crosby," “This is the first time that this nationally known group has performed in the State of Maine, and it is exciting that Lincoln has the opportunity to share this dynamic group during our festival. I’m sure that the kids and older folks too, will get a kick out of their performances!”

The Roaming Railroad (pictured above) was enjoyed by kids and adults alike last year, and plans are being made for a return again this summer. Much more is being planned for this summer's Homecoming here in Lincoln, the week of July 11th, so mark your calendars now!
