Wilton Newcomers and Neighbors is partnering with Wilton Library and Realty Seven for its annual back to school 'Boo-Hoo Woo-Hoo' brunch. Traditionally this has been a members-only event held in someone's home, but in concert with the organization's rebranding and updated mission to foster connections within the Wilton community, the event will be held in Wilton Library's Brubeck Room and is open to everyone. Whether you're commiserating or celebrating the first day of school, all community members are invited to come together. Light nibbles and mimosas will be served. The event is free but please register in advance.  More info & register

From Cape Wrath in the northwest to a muddy estuary overlooking England, The Kiss of Sweet Scottish Rain takes the reader across wild and beautiful landscapes, introduces an ever-changing cast of companions, and passes through communities from remote hamlets to the city of Glasgow. Around every corner, McWilliams explores Scotland's turbulent history and unique cultural and natural heritage. Books available for purchase and signing courtesy of Elm Street Books. Media Sponsor is Good Morning Wilton.  More info & register
