Good Riddance Heat And Humidity! Hellooooo Weekend!

This information was provided by the Madison Chamber of Commerce:

Start the weekend early - come down the the "Grassy Strip" in front of the Madison Beach Hotel for their weekly Music & Art Series (music begins after 7).  The  GRASSY STRIP Music and Art Series is a complimentary celebration of live music performances along with a selection of regional artisans.  This week's featured musician is Jeffrey Gaines. His hit single "In Your Eyes" was quickly picked up by adult contemporary stations across the United States. After years of building his reputation as a singer-songwriter, Gaines toured extensively as the opening act for Stevie Nicks on her North American tour.
Music lovers come on by, relax on the grassy strip and soak in the talented stylings of Jeffrey Gaines and full band.  You may purchase drinks on the outside bar and enjoy them on the lawn... please bring a folding chair or blanket to sit on.    

Susan Powell Fine Art, 679 Boston Post Road, Madison, presents Along the Shore, an exhibit featuring 75 paintings by 20 artists, through August 12. The public is invited to an opening reception on Thursday, July 19 from 5 - 8 pm.  Hors d'oeuvres and refreshments will be served and many artists will be here to talk about their work.  

Free Beach & Rec Outdoor Concert & Movie at the Surf Club on Friday, July 20.  Concert features "The Clams" at 7pm and the movie "Despicable Me" at 9pm, sponsored by Guilford Savings Bank.  Enjoy free refreshments provided by GSB from 7:30 to 9pm.  Bring a chair or blanket to sit on & enjoy the evening.

Where's Waldo?  The scavenger hunt is a community-wide activity in which everyone - kids, parents, and Waldo-lovers of all ages - is invited to  participate! Since July 1st, Waldo-spotters have set off on a hunt to find our elusive guy hidden in twenty-five business establishments in Madison, CT.    Visit rjjulia.com for more information about this fun event!  

Dee-dee-dee!

Don't miss the popular KERRY BOYS at the Madison Beach & Recreation Department's outdoor Summer Concert on the Green this Sunday, July 22 from 6-8pm.  Bring a picnic dinner if you like, invite all your friends, and bring your lawn chairs or blankets so you can sit and relax while enjoying the music.  This is a family friendly show and a great way to end the weekend.  See you on the Green on Sunday!
