Retail Therapy Guide :: 2/19/2022

You thought Spring was coming? Just kidding! Pretty normal weather for Beacon, and this Saturday snowfall is pretty. Winter will try to dig in for as long as it can. Meanwhile, as we exit this week of Feb 14th love, enjoy this column in the Highlands Current from A Little Beacon Blog's publisher Katie Hellmuth Martin about the Power of Self-Love. It's inspired by a recent question from a parent about how to tap back into herself. A list of recommendations is in this article, plus a local Gift Guide on where to find some of these things (if purchase is necessary, but for most it's not). Read it here. We are keeping this intro brief, as we are working on a longer article about Central Hudson's billing situation to publish for you shortly.     THE EVENTS + RETAIL THERAPY GUIDE Book an Event Promotion Advertising spot here.
