The Quinnipiac Chamber Women In Network End Of The Year Wine Tasting Event.  I don't know about other guys reading this, but either we are getting the short end of the stick, or women just know how to do these networking events much better than we do. This networking event comes complete with not only excellent wine but with great food as well.  That is a win, win, to me.  This event will be hosted right at the Quinnipiac Chamber of Commerce office which gives the Chamber an opportunity to show off their facility. I keep on suggesting the Women In Network recruit us guys to volunteer to help out and serve them, but so far they have not taken me up on my offer.  Ladies do not pass up this great Quinnipiac Chamber of Commerce opportunity to network and form new business relationships, as ...

Harriman Real Estate Hosts Lyman Hall High School Art Open House The second 60 days of our Wallingford Inspires Art Wall is coming to a close, and we hope you got a chance to see the first two artists’ work at least once. For the first 60 day display we featured local photographer Wendy Kenerson and her beautiful images of Mackenzie Reservoir, Gouveia Vineyards, and more. Many people commented on her work during our Grand Opening, and we were proud to have her images grace our office walls. Beginning on April 1st we had photo collages of Wallingford barns done by art students at Lyman Hall High School under the direction of Art Teacher Colin Lavalette. The pictures are fantastic, as are the frames which were constructed by the students out of scrap wood and painted to resemble an old re...

  This Wednesday I attended a Make-A-Wish Fundraiser Event In Wallingford, CT hosted by ActiveRain members Pat and Wayne Harriman at Gouveia's Vineyard and Winery.  Pat and Wayne did a fantastic job hosting this event and everyone in attendance had a great time, while having an opportunity to help support a very worthy cause. The purpose of the event was to raise money to grant a wish for a Wallingford, CT child who is coping with a life threatening illnes.  Each wish costs about $10,000 and Pat and Wayne raised more than half the amount at this Gouveia's Vineyard and Winery Make-A-Wish fundraiser. Connecticut has been very successful at granting Make-A-Wish wishes, to date Connecticut has raised enough funds more than 2,400 wishes throughout the years, and Pat & Wayne hope to add one ...

Wallingford Adopt-a-Wish Fundraiser Helps Fund a Local Child's Wish As many of you may know, Pat is heavily involved with the Connecticut chapter of Make-A-Wish. In fact, she just finished up what is being called the biggest wish ever granted in the state, a Walk For Wishes event held at Bridgeport’s Beardsley Zoo, which was an overwhelming success. The next event on her busy schedule is the Wallingford Adopt-A-Wish Wine Social Fundraiser at Gouveia Vineyards in Wallingford. The purpose of the event is to raise money to be put towards granting the wish of a Wallingford child who is coping with a life-threatening illness. The average cost of granting a wish is about $10,000, and it has always been Pat’s dream to be able to get the residents of Wallingford together to help fund the wish o...

  Beauty And The Beast At Lyman Hall High School In Wallingford, CT May 1-3.  One of the things my wife and I enjoy is going to watch the young people that we know perform in their school productions.  We have already seen Beauty and the Beast performed a couple of years ago at Catherine M. McGee Middle School, in Berlin, CT, and it was excellent.  I am sure that this performance at Lyman Hall High School will also be exceptional. This is the time of year where many of the area High Schools and Junior High Schools are having performances of Broadway Plays like Beauty and the Beast.  If you have not had a chance to see a performance yet at your area High School or Junior High School, I would encourage you to attend the Beauty And The Beast At Lyman Hall High School In Wallingford, CT Ma...

Wallingford Artists' Work Shines on Harriman Real Estate Wall As some of you know, back in January we realized a long-running vision of opening a brick-and-mortar office here in Wallingford for our real estate brokerage. After working in “virtual office” mode for many years both before and after forming our own company, it was both a rewarding and eye-opening experience, to say the least! The response from the community and our clients has been very gratifying, and we’re extremely happy with our decision, even though many brokerages are moving in the opposite direction, from physical offices to virtual ones. One of the things we wanted to make sure we did with our office was to promote and feature our town, its history and the people that make it such a great place to live. In our confe...
