MollyOckett Day has been Bethel's biggest and most beloved event for over 50 years. Artists and crafters on the town common, parade, live music, kids’ entertainment, frog jumping contest, food, fireworks, and more - but it's really a homecoming, a time to connect with friends and neighbors, and enjoy the beautiful Bethel summer. Road races: 5-mile run, 2-mile walk, 1-mile kids' run, diaper dash too! T-shirts & prizes. Always the third Saturday in July. Bethel Area Chamber of Commerce. 207-824-2282, www.mollyockettday.com.
