AUGUSTA — The second riverfront Spring Running Festival is scheduled for June 2 at Mill Park and Old Fort Western, city spokesman Gerard Roy said.

In its second year, the event celebrates the annual fish runs up the Kennebec River, Roy said.

“It’s all about the celebration of a river reborn,” he said. “Come and enjoy a variety of demonstrations, exhibits and entertainment. Watch a blacksmith and a barrelmaker preserve fish the old-style way. Learn techniques for kayak safety and fishing from a kayak. Enjoy free fly-tying and casting instructions. Shop local Maine artisans at our craft show. There will be musical entertainment in the afternoon, a farmer’s market and an open invitation to come fly a kite with the Nor’easters Kite Flying Club. It’s all free. Don’t miss the fun.”
