Recuperation journey: Baby goats

SEYMOUR - I met Bonnie and Clyde Sunday afternoon. 
The baby goats - sister and brother - visited Lizzie's Corner Consignment and Gifts, 36 Bank St. just in case anyone wanted to give them a hug!
They live at DeMartino Farm, 66 Old Ansonia Road.
The goats are almost two months old, they're starting to eat solid food, and as you can see they're quite cute!


Bonnie likes to pose. Her brother was too busy eating to notice the camera.

SHELTON - Representatives of Celebrate Shelton Friday presented a $500 check to Adam’s House, a no-cost grief support center for children and families who have experienced the loss of a loved one. 
The funds were raised during “Food Trucks on the River,” hosted by Celebrate Shelton, an initiative that highlights the Valley community by creating fun and family-friendly events.

The event Oct. 19 drew more than 2,000 people to Veterans Memorial Park. 
In addition to 28 of Connecticut's best food trucks, there was live music, local vendors, a kids costume parade, a beer garden highlighting New England Brewing Co., and a “Paint-A-Pumpkin” patch.

All proceeds from “Paint-A-Pumpkin,” and a portion of the suggested $5 charitable entrance donations were given to Adam’s House. 
“With this generous donation from Celebrate Shelton, Adam’s House can continue to offer theme-based educational programming where participants receive peer support and coping skills to overcome the loss of a loved one through expression and positive-play, in a warm, caring atmosphere at absolutely no-cost to the families,” said Allison Wysota, founder, Adam’s House.
