Got stress relief?? Boston area neighbors. An easy way to find serenity and get in tune with your spiritual sovereignty. A grounding and empowering visualization followed by immersion into the vibrations of Tibetan Singing Bowls. Come Zen with Ben
Enjoy being present to power and peace with a relaxing experience. After a visualization journey reinforced by the sound bath and a naturally occurring meditative state occurs, most experience some form of experiential journey, being left relaxed and with more energy.

I will be preparing the room using Reiki so that the space is intentionally energized, and resonating with healing, invigorating and uplifting frequencies to enhance the meditative state. Participants say it is not your average sound bath experience. Treat yourself by taking advantage of the calming healing space.

<h6></h6>Alanis Morissette's Jagged Little Pill: The Musical

Stage Director: Rhiannon Jenkins | Music Director: Kathryn Denney
An exhilarating musical inspired by the themes and raw emotions laid bare in Alanis Morissette's seminal album of the same name. The Healys appear to be a picture-perfect suburban family – but looks can be deceiving. When the cracks beneath the surface begin to show, they must choose between maintaining the status quo or facing harsh truths about themselves, their community, and the world around them.

Ephraim Curtis Middle School

On Sunday, September 20th, Sudbury will host our third inaugural <a href="https://kids.pmc.org/sudbury" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">Sudbury PMC Kids Bike Ride</a>.&nbsp;Our ride is a 1-mile loop that riders may enjoy as long as they would like. The one mile course is entirely paved and loops through the beautiful residential neighborhoods of historic Sudbury. Parents are welcome to ride with their children but it is not required. If a parent chooses to accompany their child on the bike, we ask that they register as volunteers.&nbsp;
Many kids choose to ride the loop 3-6-12 or even 15 times. We encourage riders to participate as long as they would like. We will have special badges for riders who accomplish 5-8-12 and 15 miles, too! Please indicate at registration an estimate of your rider's total distance (this will help us for event organization).&nbsp;There is also an enclosed parking lot loop all starting from Curtis Middle School in Sudbury, MA. (Adults may opt to register as volunteers if they would like to ride with the kids). Before the ride there will be music and bike decorating; during the ride and following there will be an Ice-Cream Truck, Food Truck, Coffee Truck, huge bouncy castle, lawn games, music and more. All registered riders will get a free ice cream from our friends at Trombetta’s Farm Ice Cream. Registration takes place from 8:30am-9:45am. The ride is from 10:00am-11:30am, and food and games will be available from 10:00am - 1:00pm.
“The Pan-Mass Challenge is a Massachusetts-based bike-a-thon that raises more money for charity than any other single athletic fundraising event in the country. Always held the first weekend in August, the PMC raises funds for Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, a world leader in adult and pediatric cancer treatment and research. Each summer, thousands of riders and volunteers from 43 states and 12 countries participate in the PMC, all with a common goal: to find a cure for cancer.
100 percent of all rider-raised funds go directly to cancer research and treatment at Dana-Farber and the Jimmy Fund. The PMC is Dana-Farber’s single largest supporter and is 62 percent of the Jimmy Fund’s annual revenue. Since 1980, the PMC has raised $972 million for Dana-Farber.”
The Sudbury PMC Kids Bike Ride empowers young participants to contribute to a meaningful cause while enjoying a fun activity. By offering multiple course options, every child will have the opportunity to participate and make a difference - regardless of age or ability. Each ride distance is carefully planned to be safe and enjoyable, with designated routes through historic Sudbury neighborhoods that are well-marked and closely monitored by volunteers. For the youngest participants, the tot lot loop provides a secure environment where kids can ride in a contained area - strollers, scooters, tricycles are ALL welcome!
Beyond the joy of bike riding, the Sudbury PMC Kids Bike Ride serves as a powerful educational experience for children, teaching them about the impact of collective efforts in fighting cancer. As they pedal for a purpose, they learn about empathy, community involvement, and the importance of supporting breakthroughs in treatment and cures at the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute. This event not only raises crucial funds for cancer research but also instills valuable life lessons in the young riders; collectively we all pedal towards a more cancer-free future. As with all PMC rides, every penny donated goes directly to cancer treatment and research at Dana-Farber.
Please join us on September 20th, 2026, for the <a href="https://kids.pmc.org/sudbury" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">Sudbury PMC Kids Bike Ride</a>. We are also looking for volunteers of ALL ages to help us host an impactful and safe event. If you would prefer to contribute from a distance, you can donate to the ride by clicking the link below.

<h3>Greater Boston exclusive buyer agency says homebuyers need open access to all listings, days on market, price changes, and other key property details before making an offer.</h3>
GREATER BOSTON, MA, UNITED STATES, Sept 10, 2026&nbsp;--&nbsp;<a href="https://www.buyersbrokersonly.com/about" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Buyers Brokers Only, LLC</a>, a Greater Boston exclusive buyer agent real estate company, is urging homebuyers to understand the risks of &ldquo;private listings,&rdquo; &ldquo;pocket listings,&rdquo; and reduced access to property information after Realtor.com CEO Damian Eales warned that limiting listing data threatens consumer protections in the housing market.
<img src="https://info.buyersbrokersonly.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Press%20Release%20Infographic%20Realtor.com%20CEO.png?width=500&amp;height=273&amp;name=Press%20Release%20Infographic%20Realtor.com%20CEO.png" alt="Infographic calling for transparency in real estate listing information [AI-generated]." srcset="https://info.buyersbrokersonly.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Press%20Release%20Infographic%20Realtor.com%20CEO.png?width=250&amp;height=137&amp;name=Press%20Release%20Infographic%20Realtor.com%20CEO.png 250w, https://info.buyersbrokersonly.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Press%20Release%20Infographic%20Realtor.com%20CEO.png?width=500&amp;height=273&amp;name=Press%20Release%20Infographic%20Realtor.com%20CEO.png 500w, https://info.buyersbrokersonly.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Press%20Release%20Infographic%20Realtor.com%20CEO.png?width=750&amp;height=410&amp;name=Press%20Release%20Infographic%20Realtor.com%20CEO.png 750w, https://info.buyersbrokersonly.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Press%20Release%20Infographic%20Realtor.com%20CEO.png?width=1000&amp;height=546&amp;name=Press%20Release%20Infographic%20Realtor.com%20CEO.png 1000w, https://info.buyersbrokersonly.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Press%20Release%20Infographic%20Realtor.com%20CEO.png?width=1250&amp;height=683&amp;name=Press%20Release%20Infographic%20Realtor.com%20CEO.png 1250w, https://info.buyersbrokersonly.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Press%20Release%20Infographic%20Realtor.com%20CEO.png?width=1500&amp;height=819&amp;name=Press%20Release%20Infographic%20Realtor.com%20CEO.png 1500w">
According to a June 24, 2026, Real Estate News article by Andrea V. Brambila, Eales told attendees at the National Association of Realtors&rsquo; MLS Forum in Washington, D.C., that the real estate industry faces a &ldquo;right side of history&rdquo; moment when it comes to cooperation, transparency, and open access to listing information.

Eales said the U.S. multiple listing service system helps &ldquo;end asymmetry of information&rdquo; and allows consumers to benefit &ldquo;on equal terms.&rdquo; He also criticized efforts that limit access to property details, including days on market and price reductions, calling the practice &ldquo;madness,&rdquo; according to Real Estate News<h3>Quick Facts About Reduced Property Information</h3>&bull; The issue: Private listings and fragmented listing data may prevent homebuyers from seeing all available homes and key property information.
&bull; The consumer risk: Homebuyers may be asked to make major financial decisions without full access to listing history, price changes, days on market, and other information that can affect value and negotiating strategy.
&bull; The industry warning: Realtor.com CEO Damian Eales said the industry must decide whether it supports cooperation, open markets, transparency, and fair treatment of consumers.
&bull; The local response: Buyers Brokers Only, an exclusive buyer agency serving Greater Boston, says <a href="https://www.buyersbrokersonly.com/buying/boston-buyer-agent-realtor" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">homebuyers&nbsp;should work with agents whose only loyalty is to the homebuyer</a>, real estate professionals who put clients before commissions.
