Veterans, service members, first responders and their immediate families are welcome to join our Free Warrior Yoga class Mondays 6:00-7:00pm with instructor Kate Hamm at Treetop Yoga studio in Gloucester starting September 16th and running through December 16th. All levels welcome, from the beginner to the advanced. 

Prolonged exposure to combat and operational stress are just part of the job for service members and first responders. Warriors receive some of the best training to prepare for facing extreme and dangerous conditions. However, without the tools and training to help to manage the impact of stress and other traumas, those who serve us are vulnerable to developing serious stress-related disorders.

Mind-body practices like yoga are increasingly becoming a more popular adjunct therapy within the military and first responder population. Even the VA has recognized yoga to be highly effective in managing pain and improving systems of depression, anxiety and insomnia.

A special thank you to Cape Ann Savings Bank, a Silver Sponsor of the Warrior Within Yoga Project, for helping to make this possible through a community grant. And a shoutout to Vionette Chipperinni, Director of Veterans Services, who started the conversation with Treetop Yoga about bringing this type of service to Cape Ann several years ago before she stepped into her current role in the Veterans Services department. 

While Treetop Yoga will host the classes, the program is managed and supported by the Warrior Within Yoga Project, a MA non-profit.

Part Of Our Series Exploring Real World Experience With Electric Vehicles From Lyon Waugh Auto Group.

So far the spectacular performance of these vehicles is undeniable. I would absolutely buy an EV based on performance and cost savings. I wouldn’t buy one if I couldn’t charge at home. Charging at home as easily as hooking in to a charger and letting it run overnight to give you 275-350 mile range would last me a week easily. Again they aren’t for everyone but for people that do marginal amount of driving and can have a charger at their own home I think it’s an absolute no-brainer decision for so many reasons.

Thanks Warren Waugh and Lyon-Waugh Auto Group for the opportunity to showcase an unbiased, non political view of real world EV experiences. Cidalia Schwartz

After close to 15 years in business, Savour will be closing permanently by the end of the year. Savour has sold its liquor license and will therefore be closing when the transfer is made by the state to the new owner. This process takes 1 – 3 months. However, we will need to sell our entire product inventory before the license changes hands.

So – we are having a great sale with discounts of 10 – 25%!  Also remember, you will get that same discount on anything you buy with your wine, including beer, cheese, pantry items, and wine tools! I know of no other business that does this, so take advantage of the best prices we have ever offered.  Come in early for the best selection!
