WELCOME TO THE SUMMER 2021 ISSUE OF SOUTH SHORE MAGAZINE. Greetings to you all! www.TheSouthShoreMagazine.com CHECK IT OUT! See past issues and much more. 2 SSM is a Proud Member PUBLISHER'S LETTER per·se·ver·ance /ˌpˌrsˌˌvirˌns/ noun : continued effort to do or achieve something despite difficulties, failure, or opposition : the action or condition or an instance of persevering : STEADFASTNESS Well, this past 18 months has certainly tested our perseverance and determination to reach the significant end goal of beating a deadly virus! While we are all exuberant and excited to get back to a new normal, we must all practice and show patience with each other and with our local businesses as they navigate back to proper staffing levels and endeavor to maintain inventory. The pandemic turned our world upside down and as much as we wish we could just flip a switch and be back to our pre- COVID world, it will take time. Many of us are working hard to accelerate the pace, but just be mindful and patient that it will come. I LOVE our front cover and feature article on The Range Bar & Grille and The Tavern at Weathervane Golf Club restaurants. Most certainly people missed everything about going out to eat, and especially to places with such fantastic outdoor entertainment options! These two establishments have got the summer vibe in full swing (pardon the pun) for a great experience, both indoors and outdoors. Sleep is such an important element of everyday healthiness. Plymouth ENT has just opened a new sleep center in Weymouth to complement their other locations in Plymouth and Hyannis. Read about their practices and technologies that diagnose and address the complications of sleep issues. Our Commonwealth has provided grants to area Chambers of Commerce to promote the reopening of the economy, and especially to restaurants, art and entertainment venues and historical sites. Check out The South Shore Chamber of Commerce's new program, "Hello! South Shore" at www.hellosouthshore. com, as well as The Marshfield Chamber of Commerce's program, "Open for Business - Invest in Your Community" at www.marshfieldchamber.org. We have so many wonderful activities and events here in our region, especially in the summer months. There is without any doubt something for everyone to experience; it's what makes the South Shore so special. Get out and enjoy! As has been my mantra for over 21 years now as the Publisher of The South Shore Magazine: First and foremost, THANK YOU to all of our advertisers and clients for believing in the power and successes of our Publication. Secondly, the importance of shopping and doing business locally has never been greater. By doing so, your money is further invested in the South Shore community. Support your locally owned and operated businesses! They are friends, family, supporters and sponsors, and an integral part of the fiber of the place we call home: THE SOUTH SHORE. Happy summer to all—enjoy it while it is here, as we know all too well that it is gone in a flash.
