We’re ready for a New Year and new improvements to the North End Breezes. A notable change is our print schedule; now running from February to December. This provides a welcome break for our delivery volunteers and offers an extra month in August to showcase your programs and tell us about your summer experiences.
Our really BIG NEWS is our new online shop to purchase branded merchandise for you or for a friend. Visit our website at www.northendbreezes.com/shop/
