Featured Events Taking Place In Massachusetts This Weekend Friday 30th, Saturday 31st July and Sunday 1st August 2010
Yankee Homecoming Newburyport , Massachusetts July 25th to August 1st Yankee Homecoming
welcome everyone to Yankee Homecoming 2010 - "Come Together", the 53rd year of this great tradition in Newburyport, MA. We believe this year’s Yankee Homecoming will be an event where families, friends, neighbors and visitors can "Come Together" and enjoy all of the festivities.
It’s always easy to listen to all the negative news we seem to hear every day and I realize this is the world we live in. What I’d like to suggest is that for the eight days of Yankee Homecoming all of you walk around the beautiful City of Newburyport, think back to 53 years ago when Yankee Homecoming started and the world seemed to be a lot simpler, and just enjoy yourself. If we collectively walk around with a smile I am convinced we will make a positive difference. Say Hi to someone and let’s all "Come Together".
I encourage you to visit the various events we have planned which are listed herein on our website. There is something for everyone - whether you are a shopper, runner, eater or listener, its here for you to participate and enjoy.
