🎻🎶Last night, we had the pleasure of attending the Mystic Chamber Music Series at the Noank Baptist Church, brought together by Artistic Director Thomas Readett. It was truly beautiful and so impressive—such a special night in Mystic, and we’re looking forward to hearing them again at the Mystic Outdoor Art Festival this year!
♻️🗑️Such a fun morning in Griswold, volunteering at the Friends of Pachaug Forest’s Community Cleanup!
This incredible group organized a free drop-off event for residents and even helps pick up items for those who can’t make it—making it easier for everyone to take part and keep the community clean.
We were glad to lend a hand at the transfer station helping residents unload trucks and trailers—great to see so many people pitching in.
