Welcome To Brunswick, ME

Brunswick, ME Offers Fun for the Whole Family

Brunswick was established along the southwestern border of Maine. The community also lies along the Casco Bay and at the head of the Androscoggin River. Thomas Purchase and a group of fishermen established the first village here in 1628. However, the community was burned and abandoned in the midst of King Philip's War in 1676. The military constructed Fort Andros on the site.

In 1714, pioneers erected a new village and named the site Brunswick in honor of King George I. Today, the historic community is home to Bowdoin College and thrives in the cultural arts. Interesting local destinations include the Bowdoin College Museum of Art, Pejepscot Museum and the Skolfield-Whittier House.

Things To Do

In celebration of Valentine's Day, the community hosts the annual Father-Daughter Valentine Ball in February. The event is held at a designated location within Brunswick. Fathers having daughters aged 1 through 12 are invited to participate in the popular event. The evening dance features DJ-provided music and refreshments. Each daughter receives a chocolate heart and a rose. There is also a teddy bear raffle.

Each May, Brunswick hosts the Brunswick Bike Rodeo Family Safety Day. The events include bike safety inspections, bike drawings, refreshments, and helmet giveaways. There is a bounce house obstacle course and K9 unit demonstrations. Children who complete the obstacles course are also awarded tote bags. McGruff and Sparky the Fire Dog make surprise visits.

During the month of October, the community presents a number of events in honor of Halloween. Youngsters are encouraged to dress up and take part in the Goblins Parade. Later, all are invited to the Creepy Creature Party. Junior High-aged students enjoy a Halloween Dance. Students in grades 4 through 8 are invited to take part in the Halloween Window Painting activity.

In December, St. Charles Borromeo Church hosts an annual Christmas Craft Show. Dozens of crafters attend the event, which gives shoppers the chance to find unique gifts. The event features a cookie walk and offers homemade fudge and locally grown poinsettias. Santa is also on hand to greet young visitors."
