We dance when @birdiesautospa comes to steam clean

We dance when @birdiesautospa comes to steam clean our cars! Seriously though, it’s the best feeling to get into a clean AND sanitized car and we didn’t even leave our house.

Plus, they use barely any water and it makes a great gift *hint hint* - Fathers Day is soon!

I feel like my dance moves fit the timeframe of this C+C Music Factory song very well.

🏊🏻‍♀️ 🚴 🏃‍♂️The 3rd GEMS Kids Tri for ages 6 to 14 is on Sunday, June 11th at Greenwich High! Registration closes on Friday night, 6/9/23.

💪The @greenwichems Kids Tri is a fun community event for local youth, plus it’s a USA Triathlon sanctioned event consisting of swimming, cycling, and running.

🏆The event will include prizes, refreshments and entertainment for participants and their families. The race begins promptly at 7:45am, with participants required to be onsite by 6:45am.

Happy Mother’s Day from this mother of dragons t

Happy Mother’s Day from this mother of dragons to the hundreds of kick@$$ moms I know and those that I don’t know! Swipe to see the 2015 version of this pic, same bags under my eyes haha.

👋 Hi, I’m Jess! Inspired by @donutsatthedisco’s recent post… For those of you who are new to this account, I like long walks on the beach and silk pajamas. 😂 j/k sort of.

🙌I’m a Greenwich townie as is my husband and aside from my years at UConn Storrs {Go Huskies!}, I’ve lived here most of my life. Though, let’s be clear, I grew up in Byram #westsidebestside

👯‍♀️🐶🐶🐶I have 2 daughters and currently have 3 dogs, which isn’t so smart. Our two newish puppies will be the end of me. I love dachshunds.

🥋 In my free time, which is pretty limited, I prefer to be doing Jiu Jitsu or working out, hanging/walking at Tod’s Point with my fam or as most of you have seen, in costume, galavanting around town.

💪My high school friend and marketing business co-owner, Craig Jones, and I started IN Greenwich a few years ago to organize and promote events and things to do in town, though it’s me, Jess, who is behind this account.

💻 IN Greenwich is just for fun. My real job is social media and digital marketing. Craig is also a co-owner of another business that takes up most of his time, which focuses on remote depositions. I also do some work for this company and it’s very interesting!

🤕 As some of you may have noticed I haven’t posted on this account often these last few months. I was in a car accident a few months ago and the concussion from the accident has impacted my time on screens and my ability to do work PLUS I just like being off of social media. So I’m not sure what the future of this account holds, but I’m open to ideas.

💃I always wonder if anyone reads this long of a caption, so if you do, the secret password (which typically I leave at the end of long voicemail messages) is #thatsswhatshesaid - put it in the comments if you dare - thanks for following along ❤️

Best,
Jess

Happening Now - Sat. April 1, 11am to 3pm! Join @wastefreegreenwich for the 2nd annual ReThink Waste Fair, an engaging, family friendly event to explore ways to rethink waste through the 6 R’s: Refuse, Reduce, Reuse, Recycle, Repair and Rot.

Activities include:
♻️eco-friendly vendors
🍎composting and cooking demos
🎨arts and crafts projects
📚book exchange
🌿interactive exhibits
and more!

Vendors will offer low waste products from reusable wares and vintage clothing to kitchen tools and beauty products to inspire a sustainable lifestyle, while local community partners will share practical tips and information through hands-on activities and exhibits.

At noon, First Selectman Fred Camillo and town officials will issue an Earth Day Proclamation, and the Greenwich Sustainability Committee will announce the recipients of its newly established Sustainability Award, which recognizes Greenwich residents who embody the principles of the committee.

Spring cleaning? The fair also features a recycling drive for batteries, makeup containers, plastic bags and film, textiles and other hard to recycle items. Safely recycle electronics, like computers, VCRs, cameras and televisions, for free with Take2 Recycling.

Earn cash back by redeeming cans and bottles with Eye Recycle. Drop off cell phones for Cell Phones for Soldiers and eyeglasses for the Lions Club. New and gently used school supplies will be collected for the Stamford Boys and Girls Club, and trial sized toiletries will be donated to New Covenant Center.

☘️ I love bagpipes… as well as the whole entire St. Patrick’s Day Parade IN Greenwich. It was a cold but fun 2023 parade this past Sunday!

Does anyone know where to get one of those Shriner jeeps? 100% asking for myself.

Little known fact, I was born the day before the Greenwich St. Patrick’s Day parade, some years ago and my Dad took a break from hanging with my mom and 1 day old me at Greenwich Hospital to go celebrate at the parade. 😂

Thanks to the Greenwich Hibernians for this event and congrats to 2023 Grand Marshall, Kevin McFadden.

So great seeing so many organizations, people and bands participate. Until next year 💚

☘️💇‍♂️ The 10th annual @stbaldricks event in the Greenwich Public Schools happened at Cos Cob School, thanks to organizer and Principal Kerry Gavin!

The community met their goal thanks to those who braved the shave, donated inches of hair, and donated money towards this amazing organization that raises awareness and funds for childhood cancer research.

It was a fun evening with live music by the Sound Cats, food donated by @gardencatering @corbos_southside @rinaldiscoscob and decorations from @partypaperandthings.

Teacher Mike Fina raised the most with over $7k for the shaving off his lovely mane!

You can still donate if interested, link in bio. Every bit helps!
