Central Congregational Church's parish hall filled with patrons during the church's annual Holiday Fair, an annual gathering done to benefit its various educational and social programs, held on Saturday.

"This is one of our major annual fundraisers and it goes to support our charitable works and projects throughout the year. We hold it every year the Saturday before Thanksgiving," said Lynn Horton, who coordinated the event.

The Holiday Fair featured numerous tables for items, including baked goods, jewelry, crafts, heirloom items and plants in the main hall, as well as a "Media and More" room and Christmas Shop in nearby areas. A silent auction was also held to benefit the church, and lunch items including lobster rolls and fish chowder were sold.
