What a wonderful community of shining stars we have here in Stonington! Thank you to everyone who made this year’s Stars Over Stonington gala such a special night.
We are so grateful to the fantastic volunteers, gala committee, guests, sponsors, and donors that made this all possible. Your support allows us to carry on the COMO Legacy of enriching the lives of local families through our athletic, STEAM, and educational programming. Shoutout to our honorees, Stonington Garden Club and Ann Lobdell, whose recognition was well deserved for all they do for the community.
THANK YOU!
Stonington Garden Club
Established in 1926, the Stonington Garden Club is a dynamic all-volunteer organization whose purpose is to educate and encourage interest in the environment and conservation, support community projects, and stimulate the knowledge and love of gardening. Some of the club's many projects include funding environmental scholarships and after school garden programs, maintaining the gardens at the COMO Children's Learning Garden, Stonington Borough Post Office, Lighthouse Museum, and the Wayland's Wharf Rain Garden, and participating in community outreach projects to benefit our local community. The club's passion for cultivating and maintaining our local green spaces has had a profound impact on the well-being and quality of life of our residents.
