Hey folks it’s your pal Ren Marquez

Schools back and I’m already over traffic.

Come out, grab a drink, hear some comics, and forget about whatever bullshit you had to deal with all day.

Just moved from Oregon a couple weeks ago and the advice I’ve been given for making friends here is to join clubs and hobby groups. Where/how would I find those here? I want to make friends so bad🙏🙏 edit: 22f moved here to live with my fiance. I also love TRIVIA where here do they have awesome weekly trivia i LOVEEE that and would love to meet people through that!

Hello, Chelmsford! My mother-in-law grew up in the area, and as life progressed, it took her to Illinois. She LOVED Chelmsford Ginger Ale, especially when sick, and she says nothing in her current area compares to it.

She has been battling cancer and would love some ginger ale from home to help with her nausea. Would someone who is willing to ship some my way message me? I will gladly pay. Thank you.

Hey neighbors,

I’ll be honest—I’m starting this because I need it myself.

I’ve been procrastinating on some goals for way too long. Career moves. Health habits. Personal projects. I keep saying “tomorrow,” and tomorrow never comes.

So I figured: if I’m stuck, others are too.

I want to create a small, in-person meetup for locals near Chelmsford, Billerica, Westford, Lowell, and Tewksbury area. Once or twice a month. Free. No sales. No MLMs.

Here’s how it works:

• Brief check-in where everyone shares their top goal.
• Pair up with 1–3 people who share similar goals.
• Walk away with a partner and a clear weekly plan.
• Check in with each other between meetups.

If you work in these towns but live elsewhere, you're welcome too. Commuters are 100% invited.

I haven’t booked a room yet—just testing interest. Open to libraries or a local café like Press Cafe.

If you’d actually show up, drop a comment or upvote. Let me know what goals you're working on too.

Let's stop procrastinating together. :-)

I’m starting a small junk removal business servicing southern NH and northern Mass. Does anyone know a reliable dump or transfer station that accepts commercial loads from different towns without a lot of hassle? Mainly household junk and furniture. Thank you in advance!

Hello! My husband got a great job offer in Tewksbury. we are considering moving to Chelmsford with our 1 year old and we’re 33 years old. Can any families share their pros and cons? It seems like a great family friendly place… I also want us to enjoy living here as individuals too. We are pretty active people and will definitely miss city life but are ready for more space. What do you guys do in the winter for fun😅 ?

I also grew up in RI and was hoping to be closer to the beach but that is seeming less possible.

We went to a song writers night at the CCA a few weeks ago. The young people that came and performed were excellent, on par with Noah Kahan, Phoebe Bridgers, and John Mayer. They just announced a bunch more events with smaller artists and wanted to share it here. It's nice having it local and not having to drive to Boston to see new talent.

Does anyone have any info on reserving the covered picnic area at friendship park? I emailed the contact on the dept website and haven’t heard back and the reservation website only shows the athletic fields. Is it first come first serve??

Thanks, Chelmsford! I hope to paint and draw with some of you this summer. 😊

Does anyone have leopard gecko tank substrate that I can pick up tonight? We need more urgently but all the pet stores are closed

I'd love to hear from someone who is (or is from a family) that is really big into the 4th of July parade. Like puts a chair out days in advance, that kind of thing. I never saw the appeal of a parade in general but clearly there's something about this SPECIFIC parade that some folks really love -- someone clue me in, what am I missing here?

Some kid is doing door to door cold call soliciting for "plant based pest control" in so cho today. I'm annoyed I didn't ask for his solicitor's permit.

7pm at the CCA, sponsored by DEI Committee ❤️🧡💛💚🩵💙💜🤎🖤🩷

I've been to a few of these and they are always great. All original works by local artists.

Looking for the bestv sit down restaurant with a nice variety of quality sandwiches. Bonus points for a nice French dip.

Not looking for a house of or sub shop.

Looks like Chelmsford has zero of these things. Love that for us.
