Two things to know about the Decades Dance Party: A 25th Anniversary Fundraiser. One is a gamble worth taking, the other really isn't.

Worth the gamble: with this many incredible raffle prizes up for grabs, you've got a real shot at walking away with something amazing.

Not worth the gamble: waiting to buy your ticket at the door. Based on current ticket sales, we may hit capacity, meaning tickets at the door are not guaranteed. If you have been waiting to grab yours, this is your sign to do it now. Advance tickets are $25, and as a reminder, they jump to $30 at the door (if there are even any left).

Here is the final lineup of raffle prizes we have not yet announced. Drumroll please:

- 5 class pack from Spark Cycling Studio, the inclusive indoor cycling studio in Brunswick
- Vintage NASCAR Christmas gifts (perfect for the collector in your life)
- Two tickets to a Hearts of Pine match on September 6, donated by Gretchen Kinder and Jeff Cutler
- One night stay at the The Tipsy Butler Bed & Breakfast plus a one hour sauna session for two
- A massage from Medicine Man Therapeutic Massage
- Land and Sea tour for two from the Maine Maritime Museum
- A basket of goodies for cheese lovers from Now You're Cooking

Combine those with all the prizes we've already announced and you're looking at one seriously stacked raffle table. Grab your tickets now and we'll see you on the dance floor! https://visitbath.com/decades-dance-party

Shadows of Maine gathers twenty of the state’s most enduring legends and mysteries, told in a clean, documentary style grounded in real places and real accounts. From river curses and phantom ships to lost hunters, spectral travelers, and the strange stillness of back roads after midnight, each chapter explores a story that has shaped how Maine people understand the land around them.

These are not tales written for shock. They are stories preserved by the families, woodsmen, wardens, and neighbors who witnessed them or grew up hearing them. They reflect a state where mystery is not decoration but inheritance, passed quietly from generation to generation.

Whether you are a lifelong Mainer, someone with roots in the state, or a reader drawn to atmospheric folklore, this collection invites you into the deeper, older Maine. A place where the land remembers. A place where silence has weight. A place where some stories still walk beside you.

Settle in.
The shadows have been waiting.
