The Week Ahead: Friday, September 29 through Thursday, October 5, 2017

September 29, 2017

With hopes of recovering from soaking showers alternating with intermittent sunshine Martha’s Vineyard has experienced over the past week, the Week Ahead clearly is set to take advantages of mild temperatures and sunshine as September ends and October unveils the Island’s last salute to the summer gone by. Lots going on out of doors with a selection of walking tours from which to choose, a plein air dance performance at lovely Long Point and a brink-of-the-weekend dance party/fundraiser with the Boogies scheduled for next Thursday.  Check in with our Calendar of Events for more things to do in the Week Ahead!
