Things to do in Laconia this weekend (Strafford: living, shops)

[OhBeeHave]

I will be up this weekend as part of a convention. I have a free day before the festivities start and would like to know what family-friendly things there are to do in Laconia (and vicinity) on Friday?

Thanks to all!

hike mount major....the views are great and it's short and kid friendly....the leaves should be juuuuust starting to turn.

Thanks. I should have been more specific, though. I am looking for any sort of craft vendors, antiquing, community events.

You can see a list of events going on in the Lakes Region this month here -- just scroll down to the 25th.

As far as antiquing, here's a list of antique shops in the Lakes Region.

Thank you for the links. I was unable to enjoy the events because of a mechanical problem which chewed up the better part of Friday morning.

The area was beautiful and I did get to wind my way around Lake Winnepesauke. Some stunning vistas and picture postcard lovely towns. There are no words to adequately describe the view from Castle in the Clouds.

I stayed in a White Mountain Yurt at The Green Alpaca Farm in Strafford NH. Awesome get-away. I'm already thinking of going again.
