What you need to know to plan your week in Waterford, August 12-18, 2013
Waterford Week events dominated the weekend, with Pupstravaganza at the dog park, a parade through town, and Touch-a-Truck, music, and fireworks at Waterford Beach Park on Saturday. The fun started again early on Sunday with a road race and went 'til late with a restaurant night and Waterford Trivia at Filomena's—the winning team included First Selectman Dan Steward and Police Chief Murray Pendleton.
There's plenty more fun in store this week as the annual townwide celebration continues. Here's what's happening.
