June 2, 2020

There will not be a fair in Marshfield this year, but the town hopes to put a drive-in theater on the fairgrounds to make use of the land this summer.

The Marshfield Board of Selectmen unanimously approved a plan to allow the fairgrounds to be used as a drive-in theater starting on Thursday, June 18, according to WATD FM 95.9.
