Retail Therapy Guide 5/27/2022

Memorial Day Weekend is overshadowed by sales and pool parties. We all need to relax and celebrate new summer wardrobes by supporting the boutiques on Main Street - but we really need to make several moments for the Veterans who sacrificed for us in ways most will never see or experience. Harold Delamater, commander of the VFW Post 666 in Beacon, told the Beacon Free Press: "Memorial Day is important for the community to gather to remembere the ultimate sacrifices made by our Veterans and not to celebrate the 'Memorial Day Sales Event.' Veterans take an oath to protect and serve our great Country from all her enemies whomseover. The oath sometimes means giving one's life to ensure tat freedom." ***** New Job Listing:  Part-Time Sales Associated At NFP: New Form Perspective            THE EVENTS + RETAIL THERAPY GUIDE Book an Event Promotion Advertising spot here.

Shifting through memory, and in concert with the themes of his novel ‘On Earth We’re Briefly Gorgeous’, Vuong contends with personal loss, the meaning of family, and the cost of being the product of an American war in America. At once vivid, brave, and propulsive, Vuong’s poems circle fragmented lives to find both restoration as well as the epicenter of the break.” If you haven't followed Binnacle Books on Instagram yet - do so here! > Keep up with all of the cool things they do & find and get a glimpse into the books being sold!
