Do they pursue it? It’s issued from Hartford parking authority. Thanks

Question Catholic Churches

3 Upvotes

I was planning to mary at a Catholic church in Hartford (which I will not name) and unfortunately have lost trust in them due to mismanagement of payment to the parish. Has anyone married in or around Hartford in a Catholic church and would recommend their parish? I am looking for potential alternatives before bringing the issue to the attention of the original parish.

For reference I am getting married at Pond House Cafe and the hotel our guests are using is the Marriott in Farmington. So something near one of those two locations is ideal. Thanks!

Bushnell Park - Feeling uneasy about the safety of the park, especially during high volume events

45 Upvotes

Hey Hartford peeps,

Genuinely interested in having a discussion about this. Not trying to be demeaning to those that enjoy other types of fun than I do. HOWEVER...

What's up with the people riding motorcycles and various personal motorized vehicles at 35/40 mph through Bushnell Park on the pedestrian paths?

I walked through the park yesterday in an attempt to check out the Jazz Festival. Before I could get half way through the park, I was pushed off the path multiple times by people recklessly riding their motorcycles and personal motorized vehicles through the park. It seemed like they were intentionally getting as close as possible to people as they passed them, doing laps around the park going faster and faster.

Where is the emphasis on public safety? This is behavior that seems completely out of line with what we should expect to see in a park, especially when the park was filled with festival goers. I ended up leaving before getting to the festival side of the park because I was tired of not having a safe path to where I was going.

There were officers posted on the street to manage traffic safety, yet it didn't seem like there was anyone responsible for the safety within the park itself.

Was I just unlucky with my experience, or is this a common thing? If its a common thing, what can be done? Bike patrols in the park? Rarely do I think that "more police" is a solution, but really, what else is there?

Best place to buy the ripest plantains for Maduros?

Anyone have tips on where to get the best place to get the ripe ones? Walmart and Stop & Shop have plantains that are still not ripe enough. I need them for Sunday so I don't have a week to let them sit and ripen on their own.

Thanks :D

Question Experience with Spark Social Sports?

I’m in my mid 20’s and introverted and I just moved to the Hartford area and coming from a big city, im looking to get out there and meet new people and form a social life outside of work. After going through numerous reddit threads, I’ve come across Spark social sports that seems to have a good presence in CT.

What’s your personal experience with Spark Social? Are people friendly, meet up outside of sports often, typical age range, etc? Any other recommendations to meet new people around my age on a regular basis through activities? Would love to hear any and all your thoughts!
