🦈 Weekend Update: 7/22-7/24

Summer on the island gives you lots of opportunities to get dressed up, donate, enjoy catering and hope for a celebrity sighting. We’ve got a few of those this weekend, if that’s your thing. We’re also celebrating the Island Disability Festival with several events. You also have a fun opportunity to head over to the drive-in to watch Jaws on the big screen!

☀️ Weather Report: A hot and humid weekend is coming, with lows of 71 and highs of 83 and no forecasted rain.

Speaking of Jaws…shout out to all the people who confuse Little Bridge + Jaws Bridge each year :)

Happenings

We learned that Stella Salumeria in Oak Bluffs is now open for takeaway. You’ve probably noticed some demolition next to Stop + Shop in Vineyard Haven - they are taking the building down next to it (used as a warehouse) because of safety concerns. Edgartown Stop+Shop will also be renovated and expanded by Spring 2023. S+S Kitchenette will start hosting weekly themed chef-dinners every Wednesday for the rest of the summer (this week is Greek!)
