Now Through September 30th, 2023, a portion of every gallon of gas purchased at the specially marked pumps at Seasons Corner Market stations across New England will support Hasbro Children’s Hospital and Boston Children’s Hospital.

Seasons Corner Market raised $105,000 during last year’s Giving Pump charity initiative. The Giving Pump at Seasons Corner Market will be specially marked with colorful signage to inspire consumers to fuel up and support these local children’s hospitals. It’s easy to participate in the program, and it costs customers nothing extra.

“For over three decades, the Ocean Mist has remained a destination for top-shelf live entertainment and great food. Their menu includes appetizers, burgers, wraps, tacos, grilled flatbread pizzas, entrees, and more. Breakfast is served daily until 2:00pm. The Ocean Mist wears many hats, breakfast joint, beach bar, restaurant, nightclub, and concert venue. When it’s all said and done the Mist can be wrapped up in one word, FUN.

Free Event, Open to the Public. Sessions are held in person on Tuesday evenings and can also be streamed online.

To celebrate the centennial of the College of Business and the 60th anniversary of the annual Honors Colloquium, the University of Rhode Island’s fall 2023 colloquium will examine how business activities affect stakeholders, including the natural environment; explore and prompt action to alter the ways we think about production, consumption and business success; and confront major problems in ways that benefit people, the planet, and the bottom line.

Join us most Tuesday evenings this fall for a frank dialog about the potential to use business thinking, while addressing its limitations, to help move the conversation forward and hopefully result in action.

Modeled after pub quizzes in Ireland and the U.K., Geeks Who Drink is an authentic homegrown trivia quiz. It’s a great way to drink with friends, without burning brain cells. And it’s where useless knowledge means everything. Our quizzes cover everything from Hungary to The Hunger Games, from science to sports, from the Billboard Hot 100 to Better Call Saul. Each quiz consists of seven rounds of eight questions each, in a variety of formats, including audio and visual rounds. Teams can be up to six players, so bring your smartest friends (or some likable dummies)—or come solo. We can always help you join a team! No reservations needed, just show up! Winning teams get bar cash and other prizes, depending on the venue. Bonus questions sprinkled throughout the quiz will net you additional goodies. But mostly it’s about establishing your dominance—or at least pleasantly surprising yourself. You’re into that, right?

Frankie Valli was Michael Panarello’s favorite Singer since he was “seven or eight years old,” when Panarello first heard the powerful falsetto voice of Francesco Stephen Castelluccio, better known as Frankie Valli. Panarello spent hours in his family’s home, listening to records from the singer and his famous group, The Four Seasons along with learning the mannerisms and smooth moves of Frankie Valli.

He knew he’d be singing those tunes soon enough and on a stage.  Michael honed his talents and voice to be an amazing likeness to Frankie Valli. Please come see and hear the passion Michael exudes in this fabulous Vegas-type show. With voice lessons and all under his wings – he’s perfected this show. His fans follow him everywhere they can get to see him perform.

Friday night show starts at 7:00pm pm with doors opening at 6:00pm. Handicapped entrance in the rear, full bar services, and plentiful free parking. Come see Frankie Valli and our beautiful historical Castle Like Courthouse from 1893.

• This fable of brotherly love and rivalry tells the story of Lincoln and Booth, named by their father before he walked out the door for good. Dressed as his presidential namesake and painted in whiteface, Lincoln sits in an arcade all day being assassinated over and over. His brother, Booth, stays in their rundown boardinghouse room practicing the street con game Three-card Monte in hopes of escaping his money woes.

• Nunsense begins when the Little Sisters of Hoboken discover that their cook, Sister Julia, Child of God, has accidentally poisoned 52 of the sisters, and they are in dire need of funds for the burials.

Over the next several years he would make multiple appearances on “The Tonight Show with Jay Leno”.
