Looking for something to do this weekend? 

Well, good news: There's plenty going on here in Madison, Guilford and along the eastern shoreline over the next few days.

Events going on in Madison this weekend include a concert at the Surf Club on Friday night, yoga by the sea on Saturday morning, and a "welcome to the light" art show at the Scranton Memorial Library. Events going on  in nearby Guilford this weekend include a treasure hunt, cruise nights at Bishop's, both on Thursday, and a yard sale on Jacob's Lane on Saturday. Other events nearby include the New Haven & Middlesex County 4-H Fair in Durham, and paddleboard yoga in Clinton, and a chicken barbecue in Branford.
