In the United States, Flag Day is celebrated on June 14th to commemorate the official adoption of The Stars and Stripes. Congratulations to Stan Cardinal, president and owner, Cardinal Honda, Groton, for starting the Cardinal Honda Flag Loaner Program.  Stan’s unique concept makes flags available at no cost. Raise the flag here.

On the wings of an angel is what Angela Olsen, Resident reporter, experienced during her trip with Angel Flight pilot Pierre Wicker. This Angel Flight was a medical compassion maneuver, with a lift off in Groton, for a patient pickup in Boston and a return flight to her home in Maine. Read about Where Angels Dwell here.

Congratulations are also due to Chief Ken Richards, Old Mystic Fire Department, who was honored  for the department’s work and dedication during the flood. Michael Cardillo, owner, The Old Mystic Inn, and Vickey L’Homme, owner, The Pizza Grille, joined forces to show their admiration and gratitude.  More here.

What a success! AngelRide 2010 sported 300 cyclists, raising an incredible amount of money bringing the total to over $325,000.  AngelRide was founded by Lynn McCarthy and Fred Brooke to raise money for local resident, Angel Uihelein, who was diagnosed with Leukemia at the age of 11. See here for this amazing endeavor and to learn how you can make a donation.

Congratulations to Charles “Chuck” Royce and his partners for the grand rebirth of the Ocean House, commemorated by a ribbon cutting ceremony on May 20th. Great care was taken to recreate the classic Victorian-era style of the original hotel. A Great Gatsby 2010 Era begins here.
