My wife and I drove there to see the fall colors of New England. MHC has a very big, beautiful campus.

We were in town for Smith Family Weekend and daughter, who is taking dance classes at Smith,…read moresuggested we come here on Saturday night for their one-hour dance lessons and Saturday night dance party. What a great idea! We did two classes. 6-7pm Salsa, then 7-8pm Hustle. William was a terrific instructor, using humor and LOTS of visualization directions to help us learn. There were about 15ish students in each of the classes. You dance with at least half the class, depending on whether you choose to lead or follow. The one-hour lessons are really just a brief glimpse into each dance, and you can follow up with more lessons in the future if you like it. At 8pm is the weekly dance, which you're welcome to stay for, or you can just come for the dance and pay dance-only admission. It's a good opportunity to practice what you've just learned. Because this was my only dance lesson, I was no good to those who came along and asked me to dance other kinds of dances (the dance party plays music for 6 or 8 or 12 styles of dance....I forget how many). But there are many people who clearly come quite often, so one gentleman was a good sport when I told him - you lead, I'll do my best to follow - and he was a pretty darn good leader, I'll tell you! Of course daughter was most popular to be asked to dance, because she can actually dance LOL. Anyway, if a first-year college student and her parents can have a good time, you can, too. Show up alone or with 5 friends - it'll be fun!

10/10 highly recommend brighter beginnings! My daughter…read morestarted here at 3 months old and I couldn't be happier with the experience we have had room 3 (the infant room) MS VIRGEN is amazing! Our daughter has such a strong bond with her and is always happy and smiling when I pick her up at the end of the day, Ms Virgen truly treats those babies as if they were her own and I couldn't have asked for anything better! Her and Nicole (who is also amazing!) read books to the babies, do arts and crafts, and make sure all babies get equal love and attention. The room is cleaned daily and their sick policies protect our little ones from spreading illnesses. They have a huge fenced in backyard with play structures and activities for the older kids. They frequently take the babies on walks with strollers. They also post the cutest pictures on their daycare app, which is nice to see while you are away from your child. Lily is awesome and runs a great facility. She is easy to work with and has always accommodated our needs without issue. My boyfriend and I both cried on our daughter's last day here (due to relocation). It was truly heartbreaking leaving this place behind as we knew how loved and well taken care of our daughter was in their care. I have nothing but great things to say and if you get lucky enough to send your child here, I promise you and your kiddo will be more than pleased with your experience

Cannot say enough nice things about Brighter Beginnings! Lilly, the Director, is amazing and really…read moreadds a personal touch to the center. They were very flexible with our needs, during a difficult transition through relocation/new jobs. Our son was enthusiastic about going to daycare each day and loved the teachers and friends he made.

This place is fantastic! I've been obsessed with reading about woodworking of all sorts whether it…read morebe magazines, books, you tube videos, etc. I have had a harder time time actually committing any of this newfound book knowledge to use because of the lack of tools. Unfortunately woodworking is one of those hobbies that by and large require a large assortment of tools to do various projects. While many of these tools can be useful for even the regular homeowner into DIY (router, band saw, table saw, palm sander, various hand tools) several other tools are needed depending on the project. While I own most of the tools mentioned above one I don't have is the lathe. It's also one of those tools that I couldn't justify buying without trying because a) Wood spinning at 1000rpm is a little scary b) I would prefer to have some instruction prior to purchase c) Why spend the money on a machine for it to collect dust because I'm just not that into it. Enter Easthampton School of Woodworking/The Workbench. Aside from offering an intensive 6 month cabinet building program they also offer several weeknight and weekend classes that cover various topics. I perused through their list of available classes and saw an introductory lathe class for $80 which accounted for the material for the mallet you would make and also the 6 hours of instruction. Not too shabby. Location/Amenities: This place is pretty flipping stellar Its housed in an old factory building with several different rooms setup with various workbenches for use with hand tools, large woodworking power machinery, and in the back is a room with their lathes available for classes and open shop time. Instructor: Our class was taught by Brian who attended the North Bennet Street School of Woodworking (pretty esteemed school). He did a great job of giving our class of 5 individual instruction when necessary and also partitioning out the group instruction in manageable pieces so as not to inundate us with information. Open Shop Time: While I haven't used this resource I can see where it would be amazing. Aside from having the wood necessary for the project, the amount of machines necessary to dimension rough cut lumber can be quite expensive and take up a lot of space in your workshop area. Many people can't justify the space or the expense to own these machines, or perhaps they're reluctant to buy any of the big power tools because of cost or safety hazards of the machines. The great thing about this place is on Thursdays from 6:30-9:30PM they have open shop where once you demonstrate you can safely use their machines you can log in to a computer that tracks your hours (~$10/hr), and use their machinery. Not only do you have access to their machines but you also can use the staff that is overseeing open shop to ask for help if you run into an issue. I personally don't own a jointer/planer (needed for dimensioning lumber), but I would certainly use theirs and save quite a bit of money buying the wood rough cut vice s4s (smooth on all sides) and finishing it myself. Overall: It was an awesome experience and I'm currently searching Craigslist and auctions for a quality vintage lathe (I'm a sucker for anything old). It's pretty amazing turning a straight piece of wood into a useable tool in the course of an hour. Highly recommended if you have an interest for woodworking, or would like access to larger tools that you may not own. This would also be a good gift for a spouse, sign them up for a class, who doesn't like a guy/girl that can create something with their own two hands.

Ahhh Williston Northampton. Many years have passed, yet I still find myself wearing that green…read morehoody with a pawprint on the ass. In 1 short year many a memories were made at this fine institution. It all goes back to the 3rd floor of Ford hall, 2003. Friends made that to this day I am still in contact with. We lost a few good men that year, thnx to a few scandals involving a video camera, a PG and a freshman....no need to relive those moments. Better to focus on the better aspects of campus life,like football in the snow, trips to Vermont for snowboarding, and Sunday Brunch. For many students, Williston was just a regular high school...For me, it was a vacation from high school. I hope to visit this place again sometime. It's beauty is almost as intense as the academic expectations set by the faculty. This review just doesn't seem to do justice to y experience here, so I'm sure Ill be back to Yelp more later. Until then, Thank you Williston for preparing me for college, for teaching me how to play lacrosse, and for the Griffon sisters!

Williston gave me a good education and a great start in life. College was very successful, thanks…read morein part to foundation I received at Williston. After college I returned to visit Williston and met with the then Headmaster [my old one too] and I was able to fill a position on the faculty for a semester and then in the Summer School. This experience was a springboard to my Boston College Law school education, and clearly a positive element in my career and life to date. This June [2025] will be my 60th Reunion. I will go with gratitude and anticipation of seeing my friends from Williston. As our Class Agent for decades [a ceremonial chore, I assure you], I am in constant communication with guys I was in school at Williston with. We may be "old", but we are thankful for our education at Williston more than 60 years ago, and happy for the life-long friends we made.
