QUICK POLL

🏖️ Beach people, beach avoiders, we see you

We’re not here to start a beach war… but everyone’s got an opinion. From Route 1 regulars to tropical-only travelers, we want to know: where do you land?

DOG OF THE WEEK

Say Hello to Gemma

Gemma’s got a face like a teddy bear and the personality to match. At 5½ years old, this brown-eyed beauty is equal parts cuddlebug and playmate. She came to the shelter when her owner could no longer care for her, but she’s been handling the change with grace and a wagging tail. She loves romping around with her dog friends, soaking up the sunshine, and collecting pets from anyone willing to offer them (Spoiler: That’s most people).

She’s sweet, social, and clearly someone’s future best friend. Come meet Gemma at the New Castle campus. She’s ready when you are.
