Blue Hill Community Development will act as fiscal sponsor for a planned celebration of Blue Hill’s maritime heritage, to be conducted as part of the statewide activities planned around Maine’s bicentennial.
Festival planning is off to a rapid start, moving from concept to advanced planning in a matter of weeks.

We try to keep the BHCD process simple, but we also need to make sure everyone involved understands their role and expectations.
Application Materials
So, together with help from a BHCD liaison (see “Ideas”), we ask each project application to provide a description of the project, together with a budget, expected benefits to the Blue Hill community and the key people who will be involved.
These are some of the key attributes the Board will want to understand before approving a project. There may be others, depending on the specific project or idea.
Ultimately, though, the development of this detailed proposal is not intended to be an impediment to moving a project forward. BHCD, through its designated representative, will work with you to develop a sensible, “holistic” proposal for pursuing the project.
Fiscal Sponsor Agreement
Once BHCD has determined that it can sponsor a project, BHCD and the Project Team enter into a Fiscal Sponsor Agreement, which incorporates the application and team descriptions, together with a description of any “special” terms for the sponsorship and a form for requesting disbursements of funds. We have also prepared a Financial Procedures Memo laying out what you need to do to collect and disburse funds in support of your project.

The Downeast Chapter of the Traditional Small Craft Association is proud to host and help sponsor this year’s Blue Hill Maritime Heritage Festival. We’re thinking positive that the CDC guidelines will allow the Festival to take place. The Festival is scheduled for Saturday, August 21, 2021. We will once again be partnering with Maine200.org to celebrate “207 turning 201” in 2021. We are planning a lot of maritime and historical related activities: boats, rides, demonstrations, arts and crafts in the park, sea shanties, seafood and more.
Warrant #4, the Festival exemption, passed by large margin at the Town Hall vote allowing exhibitors to fully participate at this year’s event. Planning is ongoing and if you’d like to be an exhibitor, volunteer or sponsor please visit the Festival website for more information.
We have an great line up of musicians scheduled. Returning from our first event in 2019 will be the Peter Leonard Group – Sea Shanties, Carl Karush and Bill Shubeck – Sea Songs and Fiddle Tunes. New this year we’re excited to announce that Castlebay (Julia Lane and Fred Gosbee) will be playing traditional seafaring songs from Maine.
Come join us for a fun summer day by the bay.
