Cape Ann’s small business community has proven how resilient, persistent, and creative we truly are. Over the course of the past year, our local businesses have experienced mandated closures and state regulations to help keep our community safe while enduring significant challenges. These businesses that make Cape Ann unique need our help to persevere. We are asking that you show we are  stronger together  by supporting your neighbors in take out, delivery, online ordering, or visiting their location for something special. Each week we will highlight one restaurant and one retailer for the community to rally behind. We implore you, Cape Ann, to keep our businesses strong so we can continue visiting them in brighter days ahead. This week we invite you to visit Laneside Pub and Brewery at Cape Ann Lanes and shop at Toodeloos! for a family night!

Cape Ann Strong, Stronger Together!

Youth and Young Adults: MAKE…

Hot off the press, Disney Songs! I had a lot of fun finding new versions of most of these well known tunes. A few are the originals but most are new takes. I wanted to focus the routine on the hands and feet as these are the parts of the body we take the most for granted, until they are painful.

So join us and we’ll have fun singing and dancing to Disney Songs. Here’s a sneak preview of one of my favorite finds, an a cappella version of“I Wanna Be Like You”from the Jungle Book sung by DCappella.

For Restorative Yoga, find some cushions, large books, yoga blocks, blankets, whatever you can use instead of bolsters and blocks. We make it work.
