Join us in recognizing three exceptional Bay Guardians at the 31st Annual Meeting

On May 21, the Coalition will recognize Michael Deland, Michael Gagne, and Wendy Northcross with Buzzards Bay Guardian Awards, the highest honor given by the Coalition.

Join us for our 31st Annual Meeting at the Back Eddy in Westport to recognize these individuals not only for what they have achieved, but for how they inspire others to make a difference.
