Finally, here’s some good news to share….the New Year Gorham Planning Committee is pleased to announce that New Year Gorham is on. It will be different, but it will be an exciting way to usher out this difficult year. The most notable differences are where the event will be held and its shorter length of time.

“This year we will be celebrating outdoors at the Narragansett School, and we will follow the CDC guidelines in place at the time,” said Tom Hasbrouck, New Year Gorham Coordinator. “It’s too early to reveal all the plans, but those that are confirmed promise a fabulously fun afternoon on New Year’s Eve. What we can share is the fact that we will pack a whole lot of activity and entertainment into about three hours beginning no earlier than 2 p.m. and ending with fireworks at 5 p.m.”

The preliminary plans include ice skating to live music, a variety of entertainment performed on innovative box truck performance stages, activities and food to keep folks warm, and extra special fireworks to welcome in a much needed happier new year.

The planning committee will keep everyone informed as plans are finalized, but what’s important now is for the Gorham community to save the date, December 31, 2020.
