On April 11, the Edgartown Patrolman’s Association is excited to invite our Edgartown seniors to their annual Senior Dinner, at 2 pm at 19 Raw Oyster Bar. To sign up to attend, please call the Edgartown Council on Aging at 508-627-4368. 

That same day, on April 11, maybe I’ll see you at the 26th annual Martha’s Vineyard Hospital Community Health Fair, which is scheduled between 8 am and noon at the hospital. There are 36 vendors and 14 hospital departments that have signed on to participate, which is exciting! I attended last year, and left with so much great information. This year there will be a panel of experts discussing alpha-gal syndrome, a chair yoga session, free lipid panels, oral health screenings, plus lots of free giveaways, and chances to win prizes! Full details can be found on the website at healthfair.mvhevents.org

Need childcare during the Edgartown Town Meeting on April 14? Please fill out this form, bit.ly/414CARE, to sign up. Children must be ages 4 and up. Drop-off in the downstairs Baylies Room starting at 6:30 pm. Free childcare generously funded by the Friends of the Edgartown Public Library, in partnership with the Firemen’s Association and the Patrolman’s Association. 

Looking for a fun springtime event to attend? On April 16 from 5 to 7 pm, head to Sea Spa Salon on 17 Winter St. for its “Sip, Stretch, and Polish — Spring Open House Pop-Up,” in partnership with Vintage M.V. Wine & Spirits, Vineyard Vinyasa, and Kenworthy in Nevin Square, Edgartown. Stop in for a mini wine tasting, relax in a yoga lounge curated by Vineyard Vinyasa, and enjoy a fun nail-art mini experience, plus the chance to book your spring manicure and pedicure appointments and shop Kenworthy deals. A feel-good evening celebrating local businesses in downtown Edgartown.
