Looking for a way to stay connected through Covid? Read on for one idea from a forming community, including the invitation template you can use to do this in your community!

Recently, Bay State Commons members gathered together (virtually, of course!) to share memories of important trips. WOW, our people do love to travel! From Israel to Japan, New Zealand to Malawi, Germany to Wales, we covered the world. Through the wonders of Google Earth, we took in bird’s eye views of Patty’s childhood home in Scotland, and Eddy’s grandparents’ place in Hamburg. There were vistas of Mt. Fuji, the South of France and the fjords of Newfoundland. Elephants and hippos and lots of smiling faces welcomed us to Malawi and we learned of the millions of sheep in New Zealand. We’re an active, curious bunch and all enjoyed seeing places we haven’t been (YET!) through the eyes of our future neighbors.
