• For our first full-scale Summer HONK since the pandemic, middle schoolers and mentors crashed the Green Line as well as coffee shops, markets, and other local haunts. And, we brought a new favorite tune to our song book.
• We also enjoyed our second-ever community retreat at the beautiful Hale Reservation, a free, weekend-long opportunity for our members to gather with friends and family, and with horns and drums, playing and connecting with each other in ways deeper than we can at Sunday sessions.
• And, we celebrated October with HONK!, PRONK!, our Monster Mash dance party, and our Halloween blinky light parade, where we braved a “spider apocalypse” full of candy, decorations, and kids in costumes.
