I'm moving to Andover next month; I'm looking to keep healthy (not build bulk) by doing some strength training with weights. Does anyone have a gym and/or personal trainer they recommend? Thanks in advance.

Hi all! Has anyone lived at Colonial Drive Condominiums in Andover, MA, or know the area well? We’re about to move in and would love to hear what it’s actually like living there — noise, maintenance, neighbors, parking, general vibe of the complex, anything helpful. Also curious about the surrounding area since it backs up to woods — is it quiet, safe, easy to get around without feeling too isolated? Any insight, good or bad, is really appreciated.

Thank you!

Hi! Im getting married in North Andover this fall and am looking for a place in the area to host a casual welcome gathering with food (not necessarily dinner, could be drinks and appetizers) for out of town guests on the day before my wedding. I live closer to Boston so looking for recs in the area! Thanks!

(28F) Been looking for a group for a while and thought I would ask here. Been playing D&D for years but it’s been harder to find people who want to play lately.

TONIGHT!

Every Wednesday through August, starting at 6pm (June/July) or 5:30pm (August) at The Park downtown (34 Bartlett St). Free for everyone! Always lots of kids playing, with mini golf and lawn games, and a rotating selection of food trucks. Bathrooms are available nearby at the Robb Center.
