Welcome WHUS listeners!

This a.m. I was invited by Mister G of Green Arrow Radio to join his funky, free flowing show on 91.7 WHUS. Thank you Mister G and listeners for allowing me to bend your ears about our charity fundraiser, Games on the Green. For any of you listening right now or soon thereafter, here is the quick skinny on the event and be sure check out the cool photo in our poster below - games on this green were meant to be!:

Games on the Green
Sunday, July 29, 1-5PM, Wadawanuck Square, Stonington, CT (located at the Stonington Library in the Borough)

To benefit restoration of the Stonington Clock Tower via the Borough Clock Fund II, on Sunday, July 29, from 1-5PM, local supporters will transform Wadawanuck Square in Stonington Borough from town green to an early 20th century Great Gatsby style spread. The day will include:

• Pay-to-play Croquet Tournament for two-person teams
• Fun summer lawn games including pick-up bocce, chess and checkers
• Old-fashioned children’s games such as sack races and a treasure hunt
• Unique raffle prizes (from Front of the Line” status at local Stonington restaurants to concert tickets)
• Serenade at 3:00 by local barbershop troupe the SeaNotes
• Ice cream with homemade fruit toppings
• Lots of lemonade and baked treats for sale

Cost for the Croquet Tournament is $15 per person and includes refreshments and raffle tickets. Other adult and kids’ games are free and open to the public. Croquet teams can register in advance with Suzi Edwards (suzi@wallflymarketing.com; 860-384-4480) or sign up at one of Stonington borough’s four main restaurants, all located on Water Street: Noah’s, Water Street Cafe, Skipper’s Dock and Yellow House. Note that registration for the tournament on the day of the event will close at 1:30.
