• 8 Hidden Rhode Island Seafood Chowder Houses Worth The Long Drive From Boston (takingthekids.com) — Two beloved Narragansett chowder spots, George's of Galilee on Sand Hill Cove Road and Monahan's Clam Shack on Ocean Road, anchor this roundup of Rhode Island seafood joints worth a drive from Boston. The writer praises their clear-broth, clam-forward chowder, casual waterfront settings, and local vibe, while also pointing readers to other standout chowder houses across the state.
• Student Senate 9/30 (rhodycigar.com) — URI's Student Senate meeting touched directly on Narragansett Town Council elections, focusing on how future council decisions could affect students living off campus in town. Senators also debated dining affordability and a controversial comment by Dining Services leadership, heard updates on new housing and a proposed medical school, and spent significant time wrestling with changes to their own impeachment rules.
• Beautiful Day Granola Non-Profit Bakes Up Opportunity for Refugees (providenceonline.com) — A former Narragansett restaurant owner now helps run Beautiful Day, a Providence nonprofit that trains refugees by having them bake granola bars, coffee, and hummus sold in local shops. The program offers paid kitchen work, English practice, life-skills coaching, and weekly community dinners, with most graduates moving on to jobs or further education as the group looks to expand into a larger space.
