WE'RE SERIOUS ABOUT OUR FUN.

We’re not shy about working hard, but we find lots of excuses to have a seriously good time together. Lately we’ve been into Friday BBQs, weekly cornhole championships, and outings like the Red Sox, Duck Boats, Cheers, go karts, river tours and sailing.

Just 30 minutes north of Boston, where there’s tons of great stuff to do, and fifteen minutes from the beach. So yeah, we know how to have fun.
