Last year’s successful bidder, Claire, took a friend and had a wonderful time in the city. She attended the Broadway Play, “Come from Away”, which was the best she’d ever seen. “It was uplifting, funny lines, and dancing throughout?. I laughed thru the entire play.”

For a change of pace, The New York Botanical Garden is always uplifting. It is a National Historic Landmark and one of the greatest botanical gardens in the world and the largest of any city in the US. See their website for admission, hours, and directions www.nybg.org.
Whenever you plan to take advantage of your auction winnings, there’s plenty to do in the city that never sleeps.
The gift certificates were donated by a generous, long-time POF volunteer, who suggests using C&J Bus Lines, a luxury bus that goes directly from Tewksbury to Times Square non-stop in 4 hours. Claire heartily agrees and said that the seats on the C&J bus had ” more room than on an airplane. Very comfy seats. Toilet, WIFI, and coffee and snacks provided.” Check out their website for rates and schedules at www.ridecj.com/locations/tewksbury-ma/
