The King's Port Inn wants to wish everybody a happy October! The month of October is a wonderful time to visit Maine. The weather is good; with sunny days and cooler nights. It is a great time to get out and enjoy some activities with family and friends. Here are some local activities:
The St. Franciscan Monastery is celebrating it's 70th anniversary! A small group of Lithuanian Franciscan Friars came to Kennebunk 70 years ago and opened the Monastery. To celebrate, a special mass will be given at 11 am, on Sunday, October 1st, by H. E. Bishop Robert Deeley at the chapel followed by a luncheon at the Franciscan Guest House Auditorium.

River Tree Arts is hosting a one-day oil painting workshop with Dan Graziano on Saturday, October 14th, from 9 am- 4 pm.
