I was grateful to join the Bond family and Avalonia Land Conservancy for the dedication of the Lou and Gladys Bond Preserve.
This beautiful place will carry Lou and Gladys’ names forward, giving future generations a place to walk, explore, and enjoy nature. What a special legacy to leave for our community.
Thank you to the Bond family, Avalonia, the USDA, and everyone who helped protect this land for generations to come. 💚
Such a wonderful evening with friends supporting Hope in Focus at Dinner in the Dark! Sharing a meal while blindfolded was quite an experience, and I was so glad to be part of an evening dedicated to helping individuals and families affected by rare inherited retinal diseases that cause blindness.
Thank you to everyone at Hope in Focus for the care you put into this event and the work you do all year to support families and fund research. It was lovely to see so many people come together for a cause that means so much. ❤️
Congratulations to the team at Mystic Links on their ribbon cutting! ⛳️
Located at 23 Clara Drive, this new indoor golf business offers three private simulator bays where you can practice your swing or play courses from around the world, year-round. They also offer lessons, leagues, and tournaments for golfers of all skill levels.
It’s great to see another small business opening its doors in Mystic. Stop in, bring a few friends, and give them a try!
