Set Sail With NACE Boston

If walking on the moon is not exactly your cup of tea, then what about setting sail? This week, NACE Boston is offering more than just a cruise, but rather, an event where anyone interested in trivia, prizes, and laughs will have a great time. It's free, but, of course, you can get some additional “fun” for a price. Find out more on Eventbrite by clicking below.

YOUR TIP OF THE WEEK
If you ever find yourself trying to moonwalk down Newbury Street, remember this: the only thing that should be sliding around is your iced coffee, preferably without spilling it all over your fresh kicks. Also, moonwalking in Boston's cobblestone streets? Might be more "moon stumble" than "moonwalk." Proceed with caution!
