RELAPSE IS NOT A FAILURE

Treating Addiction as a Disease How Caron Treatment Centers sets the standard for substance abuse care.

IS ADDICTION A DISEASE OR A CHOICE? As the experts at Caron Treatment Centers explain, the answer is clear: Addiction is a chronic disease, and as such, includes episodes of relapse and remission. “Relapse is not a failure. Relapse is a symptom of a chronic illness,” says Brad Sorte, executive director of Caron Renaissance and Caron Ocean Drive, both located in Florida. Sorte and the team at Caron Treatment Centers are working tirelessly to improve the stigma around addiction and how it is treated. Here, Brad Sorte answers some of the most central questions surrounding addiction.

Does medical research support the concept of treating addiction as a chronic disease?

How can treating addiction as a disease improve a person’s path to sobriety?

How can the medical community better approach addiction treatment?

Researchers from the National Institutes of Health used brain imaging technology to take a closer look at the impact of drugs and alcohol on an individual’s brain. ey found significant long-term disruptions in the regions controlling a person’s memory, learning, impulse control and stress reactivity. When drug or alcohol use is repeated, the brain resets to compulsive behavior, limiting how much control the person has over the desire to seek and use substances.

For many years, only one outcome was considered successful: lifetime abstinence. Deeming lifelong remission as the only successful outcome isn’t useful for patients or for their families—their relapse is not a failure, it’s a reoccurrence of their disease. If we begin to view addiction as a chronic illness when developing treatment plans, doctors and patients would be able to better discuss symptoms, start a dialogue that could lead to early identification and intervention, and prevent the development of more advanced, more severe manifestations of the disease. Ultimately, it would improve the ability to tailor treatment plans and examine drug and alcohol dependence.

Healthcare professionals need to broaden their thinking about treatment plans that are based in science, with proven methods.

Instead of thinking of addiction treatment only in terms of 12-step, faith-based, or medication-assisted programs, we need to tailor individual treatment plans based on the affected person. We need to focus on how their addiction manifested, work with the family, and evaluate where they are in the disease cycle so we can assess the best course of treatment, and create a treatment continuum that supports their recovery even after their inpatient or outpatient treatment ends.

What should families look for in a treatment center to make sure their loved one’s addiction is treated like a chronic disease?

Providers should offer a comprehensive approach. At Caron Treatment Centers, we create a multi-systemic, outcomes-based approach to treating substance-use disorders. We evaluate the individual patient and their addiction to determine which evidence-based therapies and treatments will best fit that individual’s needs.

If you suspect a loved one is suffering from addiction, reach out for help that heals your whole family. Caron Treatment Centers’ integrated approach treats the disease of addiction by tailoring plans that lead your loved one toward long-term sobriety. For more information on treatment options, or help approaching a loved one about their addiction, visit caron.org/executive.

This content was created in partnership with Philadelphia magazine and featured in the March 2018 issue.

Don’t let addiction threaten a perfect image.

Trust Caron Ocean Drive to be the solution.

Caron’s Ocean Drive Program offers an individually-tailored program focused on treating the whole patient and understanding the complex factors that affect addiction – such as wealth, family, and lifestyle. Our highly credentialed staff provide private, preeminent care in a discreet setting to help you focus on acquiring the tools you need to begin and maintain lifelong recovery. Don’t wait to get the care you deserve. Trust Caron Ocean Drive to be the solution and start healing your family today.

TELEVISION NEWS HAS NEVER BEEN FOR

the faint of heart. News reporting is a chaotic business, and those who choose to tell the stories must be able to change gears within minutes, report accurately on the fly and exhibit calm under enormous pressure.

But those were the good old days. Today, the news has become the news. Fake news.

Partisan news. Targeted news. And then, of course, there’s the serious competition that comes with our ability to have breaking news delivered in real time, wherever we are.

In “Network News” (page 86), writer Tim Dumas sits down with the new face of CBS Evening News, Jeff Glor. To many, Glor’s task is unenviable—boost the program out of its longstanding third-place ranking; embrace, rather than disregard, the digital age; navigate a supremely contentious political landscape; and remain above the fray, delivering information

without emotion. But to Glor, that’s all in a day’s (and night’s) work.

Before the forty-two-year-old got his seat at the anchor desk, he had spent ten years at CBS, appearing on many of its news programs and winning the network an Emmy. And yet, his appointment surprised many in the industry. He was not a household name, and that seemed to fly in the face of a well-established formula. But in an industry where the rules are changing—and changing quickly—nothing is status quo.

We know you’ll enjoy meeting the engaging, talented and incredibly downto-earth anchor. We look forward to seeing where the world takes Glor, or perhaps more appropriately, where Glor takes the world.

Girl Country

Caroline Jones returns to her native Greenwich to hit the stage for a cause

PHILIPPE MCCLELLAND

I

t’s no surprise that people are giving this rising star and former Greenwich Academy student an appreciative listen. The multitalented performer, who has drawn comparisons to Taylor Swift for her all-in approach to singing, songwriting and musicianship, has been anointed by Rolling Stone and Billboard as a country artist to watch.

She’s spent the past year opening for the Zac Brown Band, and following a duet with Jimmy Buffett at a hurricane relief concert, she walked away with a partnership with his Mailboat Records and dates on his spring/summer tour.

She’s also the host of Art & Soul, a monthly broadcast on SiriusXM radio’s Coffee House channel, where she explores music-making with guest artists.

We caught up with the Florida-based Jones in anticipation of her June 22 appearance at Under the Stars, a benefit for the Greenwich Hospital Foundation in support of its women’s and children’s health initiatives. » JUNE 2018 GREENWICH

Q&A

GM: IS IT THRILLING OR TERRIFYING TO PERFORM FOR A HOMETOWN CROWD? I think it’s going to be really exciting and also, really fulfilling. I have so many supportive friends, and family and teachers in Greenwich, people who’ve touched my life in a lot of different ways.

Caroline's Bare Feet album cover

GM: I HEARD THAT YOU ASKED YOUR PARENTS FOR SINGING LESSONS WHEN YOU WERE NINE, BECAUSE YOU WANTED TO SING CELINE DION’S “MY HEART WILL GO ON.” It was that song that made me want to perform on stage. I was nine when Titanic came out and, of course, that song is iconic and such an important part of that movie. But the other reason I wanted to sing was that by then, I had already been writing poems and stories for a long time. I began to see singing as a vehicle for performing the things I was writing. There’s something about lyrics and melodies coming together that intrigued me.

“So I went to Nashville and sat in on a show at the Bluebird Café. I was mesmerized by what I heard from the performers— GM: SO HOW DOES A GIRL FROM GREENWICH END their guitars, their voices…” UP GOING COUNTRY?

It’s a great and valid question.

When I was seventeen, I was writing songs and making

32

GREENWICHMAG.COM

GM: YOU SING, WRITE THE SONGS AND ALSO PERFORM MANY OF THE INSTRUMENTS ON YOUR RECORDINGS. WHAT INSPIRES YOU TO BE SO INVOLVED IN ALL ASPECTS? I have a passion for singing, but I also have the same passion for writing and for my musicianship too. It’s the desire to explore all those things that gives you the fuel you need to dedicate that time to your craft.

There are some people who are only devoted to their singing or their instruments—and these are all things that individually you could spend your whole life doing. But I want to be a student of all these things, and I expect to be for my entire life. This passion really extends into how I explore other people’s music. I’m often asking myself, “How did they make it sound so

big?” or “How did they do that with their voice?”

I’m fascinated by other people’s performances too.

GM: I’M CURIOUS ABOUT THE TITLE SONG OF YOUR NEW ALBUM, BARE FEET. IS THERE A MESSAGE ABOUT HOW YOU’RE APPROACHING YOUR CAREER AND YOUR MUSIC? I’m so glad you heard a message. It’s about my platform and what I stand for as an artist. It’s about being lighthearted and chasing your dreams and being real and authentic.

GM: YOU’VE HAD THE CHANCE TO TOUR AND DUET WITH JIMMY BUFFETT. WHO ARE SOME OF YOUR OTHER MUSICAL HEROES?

I’ve also had the opportunity to tour with Zac Brown, and he and Jimmy are not only musical heroes, I’m proud to call them my friends. In terms of pop, I love Ed Sheeran and One Republic and Keith Urban. But I grew up singing opera and jazz, so I have really diverse influences that are kind of all over the place. I love Ella Fitzgerald and Rodgers & Hammerstein.

I’m excited about where music production is today. We’re part of the iPod generation and I think that’s exposed us to a lot of musical influences, which is good in that it opens you up to them all.

demos and my manager said, “You know, there’s a lot of country sensibility to what you’re doing.”

So, I went to Nashville and sat in on a show at the Bluebird Café.

I was mesmerized by what I heard from the performers—their guitars, their voices, just the way they captured the audiences’ attention.

There was this entire community built around the premise that the truth of the lyrics and the melody really mattered.

From that moment on, I became a student of the history of country music. I started with Jimmy Roberts and Hank Williams and the Carter Family. It really informed my songwriting and defined the artist I want to be.

In Full Swing Greenwich Country Club marks 125 years of sports, society, charity events and legendary golf

ne of the oldest country clubs in the United States, Greenwich Country Club just celebrated its 125th anniversary. With its rich history of sports and social affairs, the club founded in 1892 by Julian Curtiss played a role in popularizing golf in America.

Curtiss, who lived in Belle Haven in the late nineteenth century, worked for a sporting goods company called Spalding and decided to purchase golf clubs during a trip to London. Back home he shared his enthusiasm for the sport, with neighbors and they soon created a fivehole course on their adjacent properties. As more friends and neighbors asked to play, they banded together to create the Fairfield County Golf Club, later re-named Greenwich Country Club (GCC). In 1896 a Colonial-style clubhouse, known as the Gazebo, was built on the hill.

Today the club’s eighteen-hole golf course is still the biggest asset on its 165-acre setting, but activities include tennis, squash (the former world champion is the pro), paddle,

Founder’s Cup Julian Curtiss, who was the club’s first president, is honored every year with The Julian Curtiss Invitational, a tournament in which members of the twelve oldest clubs in the country are invited to play.

The piece of land where the club is located was once known as Electric Hill because Thomas Edison created the world’s first completely electrified home there.

Bold-Faced Names Among the many noteworthy early members are J. Kennedy Tod, a Scotsman who made a fortune in helping build America’s railroads and owned the 147-acre estate that today is the town’s beach, Tod’s Point; A. Emilius Outerbridge, whose family built the bridge that connected Staten Island with New Jersey; Lyndon Hoyt Stevens, who fought in the battle of Gettysburg and made a fortune in silver mining. Former President Gerald Ford and baseball great Tom Seaver were also members.

Green Fees When the club was founded, it had thirty-two charter members. Within a few years, nearly 200 members had joined and annual dues were $40 per family. Today there are 650 members, and it is the largest club in the state in terms of activities.

swimming, skeet shooting and even bowling.

“It has become more and more of a family club,” says Hagen Freihoff, the general manager, who describes a robust calendar of activities for kids—events like Kids & Kites, leaf collecting and bird-feeder workshops in the off-season and a summer camp with 130 children enrolled. Dining options have evolved at the club, too, with the opening of a more casual restaurant called 1892 that serves Asian-fusion and other contemporary fare. To celebrate the 125th, the club held a black-tie anniversary ball and special matches played with vintage racquets and nostalgic dress. A member who is a golf-historian put together an exhibit of antique golf equipment (among the fascinating items: a James Bond-esque walking stick that converted into a golf club, allowing gentlemen to play discreetly many years ago when golf was banned on Sundays). Many noteworthy moments and personalities have made the club what it is today. See Sidebar, “Did you Know?” for a sampling.—Mary Kate Hogan

The club’s buildings have endured not one but four significant fires.

The earliest clubhouse, a villa belonging to builder Warren Smith, burned to the ground in 1896. In its place a new clubhouse known as The Gazebo was built. When the club was re-named Greenwich Country Club in 1909, plans were made for a larger clubhouse, and as it was being constructed, The Gazebo caught fire.

Then in 1929 the east side of the new building went up in flames; members rebuilt immediately.

In 1960 the clubhouse suffered the fiercest fire, with the entire structure engulfed in flames and smoke seen clearly from miles away. The building and its contents were destroyed, though a lockerroom attendant jumped into the burning structure and saved a few items by throwing them out the window, including a silver trophy that sits on the shelf of the manager’s office.

The present clubhouse, almost identical to the one that burned, opened in 1962.

TIPS

FOR THE SMART TRAVELER

Your bags are most at risk on connecting flights, especially if it’s a tight connection.

Always bring a carry-on with enough clothing to get you through a day or two.

(The technology can tell you that your bag was left at a connecting airport, but it can’t help when you have no swimsuit for the beach on arrival.)

2 Put your name and phone number on the outside and inside of your bags. Even better, put a copy of your itinerary in each checked bag so the airline can locate you.

4 If you like to skid into the airport moments before you board the plane, don’t expect that your bag will always make it. Late check-ins are the culprit behind many delayed bags.

5 Pack all valuables in your carry-on bags. Cameras, computers, medication, wallets, jewelry, passports and essential travel documents should never be in your checked baggage. Many of these items are excluded from coverage by the airline if your bag is lost forever.

6 Make sure the person who checks your baggage attaches the correct destination ticket; get a claim ticket. I’ve personally caught this mistake a few times.

7

For the truly paranoid, consider a luggagetracking device.

I swear by the Trakdot. It will tell you where your luggage is in real time.

3 Download the airline’s app even if it’s not your favored carrier. When I fly Delta, the app alerts me every time my bag moves.

THE GOOD NEWS Only six bags out of every 1,000 were lost or delayed in 2016 (a significant drop over previous years).

You can track your pets and kids, why not track your stuff?

M

any with limbs or backs on the mend know ONS, the bustling orthopedic and sports medicine practice at Greenwich Office Park on Valley Drive. Fewer know what’s going on in its basement.

Dr. Paul Sethi trots down a flight of stairs to a sprawling laboratory partitioned by highend surgical equipment. It’s home to the ONS Foundation for Clinical Research and

GREENWICHMAG.COM

Education, a nonprofit organization where Dr. Sethi serves as president.

This month the foundation celebrates its tenth anniversary.

While separate from ONS and dependent on donations to operate, ONSF uses field research gleaned from treating 100,000 ONS patients annually. The foundation has produced widely used methodologies

for elbow-tendon repair, arthritis treatment for fingers and shoulder-infection reduction risk in surgery.

“Harvard calls to ask how we do this,” Sethi notes.

Lately, Sethi and his team have focused on reducing the use of painkillers in the face of what he calls a clear opioid epidemic. “We have shoulderreplacement patients who’ll go home the same day and take no opioids ever,” he says.

“That’s because of protocols developed in this room.”

“Our mission is threefold,” explains Vicki Leeds Tananbaum, a Greenwich philanthropist and ONSF vice president. “We educate the community on things like hip replacement and concussions. We host a medical education conference for healthcare providers each year at Greenwich Hospital, no charge. And we do groundbreaking clinical research.” The foundation also hosts college interns every summer, runs a “minimed school” for high-school students contemplating medical careers and holds a 5K race to raise opioid awareness.

“We’ve been hitting our long-term goals every year,” Dr. Sethi says. “I just want us to perpetuate.” —Bill Slocum

Getting Perso nal Q&A

GM: HOW DID “LIVE FROM DARYL’S HOUSE” EVOLVE?

W

ith enough multiplatinum albums to tile Versailles, you’d think Daryl Hall, Rock & Roll Hall of Famer with the smoothest voice this side of Marvin Gaye might take a break. He certainly has earned the right. “Rich Girl,” “Maneater,” “Kiss on My List,” “Private Eyes,” “Out of Touch” and countless more of his eighties anthems have transcended generations, bumping Hall & Oates into a category no one can touch: topselling duo in history.

But if you think the laid-back superstar is resting on his laurels, you don’t know Daryl.

With fly-by-the-seat-of-his-jeans fearlessness and Philly soul, Daryl made it his mission to bring free, live music to the masses. His

monthly webcast, “Live From Daryl’s House,” hatched a little over a decade ago, features spontaneous jam sessions with fellow artists from CeeLo Green to Rob Thomas, Wyclef Jean to the O’Jays. It has since become a Webby-winning, web-to-cable series filmed in a crowd-pleasing restaurant and club that showcases live acts Wednesdays through Sundays (think: Kiefer Sutherland Band and Howard Jones).

We caught up with Daryl about his rockin’ home away from home as he preps for Hall & Oates’ North American tour with Train, which includes a stop at Madison Square Garden on June 14. All we can say is, we can go for that (yes can do).

Mahi Mahi

GM: THAT EXPLAINS THE RESTAURANT… WHAT ABOUT THE CLUB? People would say, ‘Oh man, I wish I could come to Daryl’s House and see your show.’ The point of the show is that there is no audience, at least not in the room. So I thought, Why don’t we do a club? We can duplicate the feeling of Daryl’s House in a club environment. I knew about a club near where I live in Pawling, New York, and I managed to get it and redesign it so it would feel the same way as the TV show.

It’s not always me on the stage, but whoever is up there has the feeling they’re playing at Daryl’s House. I think the club environment is the best place to hear music because you either have new people that are just giving it all up—man, they’re hungry—and you combine that with veterans who have been doing it so long they don’t have to prove anything to anybody. And that is a fantastic combination of acts to have. That’s why I love clubs, and I want to open more.

About twelve years ago, I realized the Internet was at a certain place where you could watch a show as entertainment, and that was kind of a novel concept back then. It also allowed me to be as free as I wanted to be. I just started calling musicians I knew, saying, “Why don’t we do a show, come over to my house, let’s play and see what happens.” There is no rehearsal. We learn the songs separately at home and then we play them for the first time with the artist. So what you’re seeing is really the first time. It just worked. Then I thought, Well, if we’re going to do all that, we have to have some food.

Sometimes I just spontaneously jump onstage. I get excited.

GM: YOU DON’T JUST LOVE TO SING, YOU ALSO LOVE TO COOK. HOW MUCH DID FOOD PLAY A ROLE IN YOUR LIFE GROWING UP?

GM: WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE SONG TO SING IN CONCERT?

I grew up in southeast Pennsylvania outside of Philadelphia. My family is a very old family, they go back to the beginning of the eighteenth century on both sides, and I’m very much a part of that culture. I know all there is to know about Pennsylvania Dutch cooking. I have memories of my great grandparents cooking in a very traditional Pennsylvania way. I still eat scrapple. I like all of that stuff that makes people look at me sideways and crosseyed—but I eat it anyway.

I get off on different things on different nights. I play “Sarah Smile” on the grand piano, and I’m having a good time doing that. I play a portion of our concert on the grand, and it changes things up a bit.

Pat [Monahan] was on the show, and we kept in contact, and when we asked him to join our tour, he said let’s write a song together. It was a simple and easy collaboration. I’m happy we did it.

GM: WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO YOU TO BE A ROCK ICON FOR NEARLY A HALF CENTURY? It makes me feel good in all the right ways as an artist and a s a person. I go all over the world, and what I do has allowed me to feel like the whole world is my neighborhood. I’m just very grateful that I have the ability, the talent and everything else to be able to do this, y’know. It’s an interesting life I’ve lived. G

GM: HAVE ANY PENNSYLVANIA RECIPES MADE IT TO THE DARYL’S HOUSE MENU? I’ve lived in Europe and traveled all over the world, so my taste has changed. I’m quite into Moroccan food, because I like the fact that it’s spicy but not particularly hot. So I have a lamb tagine that I put on the menu and people really seem to like it. My sister has some items, and my brother-in-law, so I have family dishes on the menu, but not necessarily Pennsylvania family.

G -Mom FATHER’S DAY TREASURE HUNT

Celebrating Dad should be a fun family affair

A

s a daughter and a wife, I struggled for years to plan the perfect Father’s Day. And then I realized I was trying to create my idea of perfect, not his. Most dads are content to carve out a couple of hours for their favorite pastime—whether that’s watching a few hours of sports on TV or hitting the links—and then spend the rest of the day with the family. A fun activity that engages the whole family is a good old-fashioned treasure hunt. Hunts can be customized based on your kids’ ages (ratcheting up the difficulty of the clues as well as how hard they are to find), the amount of time you want to spend planning and how much time Dad wants to spend hunting. Here are a few pointers to help you create your own family hunt.

50 GREENWICHMAG.COM

Before the big day, pick a gift theme and buy three to five small presents to be given each time a clue is solved and one larger gift to be given as the final prize.

Consider Dad’s favorite hobby. For many years my husband’s gifts have revolved around cycling. Although one year the hunt did culminate in a highly coveted new bike, the end gift does not need to be expensive.

Most years his gifts are riding socks, gloves, a new bib and so on. Watching Dad unwrap socks can be a bit anticlimactic on a regular Father’s Day, but when they are a prize, they take on a new luster.

X MARKS THE SPOT

Determine whether Dad will be up for searching for clues from Tod’s Point to the Audubon Center or if it’s best to stick to your own neighborhood or even yard. Work backwards to determine where you want to end up.

Kick off the hunt with a clue that will send Dad to his first destination.

At each subsequent spot, he’s rewarded with a treasure and a

new clue. We’ve hidden clues everywhere from under a rock at Tod’s Point to tucked in the crook of a tree in our backyard.

JULIE BIDWELL

BEST-LAID PLANS

One of my favorite hunts was the year we hid a clue under a picnic table in Bruce Park. We had spent many a Saturday at the park with the kids, so we had a picnic table that felt like “ours.” The day before the treasure hunt, the kids and I drove around town taping up clues enclosed in plastic bags to protect them from a possible rain shower.

Although we’d planned on inclement weather, we didn’t anticipate an entire family reunion encompassing most of the picnic section at the park. My husband had to politely go up to “our” table and ask strangers if he could peek under for his clue.

Bring along snacks or a picnic lunch to eat along the way.

Or consider making a clue-stop one of Dad’s favorite restaurants, asking if you can leave a clue in a menu or behind the counter.

BE CREATIVE

There is no end to the creativity your family can use in creating clues. Try riddles, paper cut into puzzles to be assembled, or video clips. The beauty of a treasure hunt is that kids of all ages can be included in creating the clues. And it’s about the time spent as a family before and during Dad’s big day.

on the hunt Here are a few ideas to jumpstart your imagination.

1 game day Either download a puzzle template or buy twelve-piece blank puzzle sheets. Write the clues on the back of each before taking it apart. Put each broken up puzzle in a plastic sandwich bag. Dad will have to complete each puzzle in order to read the clue. (Bring along a flat surface like a clipboard for easy assembly.) Each solved clue can be rewarded with prizes like a deck of cards or new board games.

Everyone from L. L. Bean to Etsy now offers personalized puzzles that make for a fun final personalized gift.

2 a good sport If Dad loves a variety of sports, use balls

from the sports he loves—ping-pong, golf, tennis—and attach a short clue to each ball. With each clue solved, he receives a gift that corresponds to the sport. It could be small, like a new set of tennis or golf balls and lead to a bigger gift like golf gloves, a new badminton racquet or tennis whites.

Conclude with a family sports tournament.

3 what’s in store Greenwich Avenue offers over a half a mile of leisurely shopping and strolling and makes a great destination

for a Father’s Day treasure hunt, complete with stops along the way for snacks and meals.

It’s also well-suited for families with tots in strollers. Purchase gifts from the shops Dad loves a few days prior to the hunt, and ask the store to wrap and stash them behind the counter. Most stores are now open on Sundays from 12 to 5 p.m. Start Dad off at the top of the Avenue and send him on his way with clues like “You can have a whale of a time here” (Vineyard Vines). Most retailers are happy to play along when you have purchased an item there—just be sure to remember the name of your salesperson. G

t was a memorable afternoon for the 550 attendees of the annual Spring Luncheon to benefit Planned Parenthood of Southern New England (PPSNE). Held at the Stamford Marriott, it drew people from all across Fairfield County in support of reproductive health.

Comedian Jane Condon kept things rolling as Congressman Jim and Mary Himes received the 2018 Community Impact Award; Ali Walensky, a young breast cancer survivor, updated her story about how Planned Parenthood saved her life; and speaker Faye Wattleton, the youngest and first African American woman to head the Planned Parenthood Federation of America (1978 to 1992), got a standing ovation. The luncheon raised over $606,000 for PPSNE, which serves 72,000 patients across Connecticut and Rhode Island. ppsne.org »

icole and Ross first crossed paths while working at the same hedge fund in South Norwalk. But it wasn’t until a fun-filled afternoon at a Yankees game with coworkers that they really hit it off. They dated for four years before becoming engaged. Ross had grand plans to propose to Nicole on the secluded island of Phuket in Thailand but excitement got the best of him, and he asked her to marry him before the car even arrived to take them to the airport. The uncle of the bride, Robert Pfleghardt officiated at the ceremony at Blue Hill at Stone Barns in New York, where the reception followed.

The bride, daughter of Randall and Cathy Weisenburger of Greenwich, graduated from Greenwich High School and the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania. Nicole is an equity analyst for a hedge fund in Greenwich.

The groom, son of David Wittenberg of Florida and IIene Wittenberg of Trumbull, graduated from Trumbull High School and Bryant University. Ross works for a hedge fund in South Norwalk.

The newlyweds honeymooned in the Bahamas before returning home to Old Greenwich.

alk about reaching across the aisle. When Republican State Senator Art Linares cofounded a Bipartisan Young Legislators Caucus, Democratic State Representative Caroline Simmons got on board. The pair hit it off and became a legislative power couple. A year and a half later, knowing that Caroline reads the Stamford Advocate every morning, Art took out a full-page ad asking her to marry him.

86 GREENWICHMAG.COM

O On December 31, 2017, New York Times media reporters John Koblin and Michael M. Grynbaum chatted in print about the year in television.

Part of their conversation went like this:

KOBLIN: For decades, networks were frightened to lose big names. Now we have CBS replacing Scott Pelley on the evening news with a guy named Jeff Glor.

GRYNBAUM: A man also known as “Who?” We shall explore the “who” of the matter in a moment. Right now, it’s a cold, bright day in March, and we have blown down West 57th Street and into the CBS Broadcast Center, a mammoth brick complex that once housed the world’s largest milk distributor. We’re waiting for our escort up to Jeff Glor’s office.

As we wait, we recall that in a former age, network news anchors bestrode the culture like giants. You may well have identified your household’s style and tone by the anchor you watched: Dan Rather (CBS) and his restrained pugnacity; Peter Jennings (ABC) and his courtly erudition; Tom Brokaw

88 GREENWICHMAG.COM

Jeff on the CBS set

(NBC) and his heartland naturalness.

Then times changed. After a collective sixty-eight years in the anchor chair, Rather, Jennings and Brokaw left within four months of one another in 2004 and 2005.

Meanwhile, round-the-clock cable news (and opinion, and debate and hot air) cut deeply into evening news audiences, diminishing the Big Three’s once-ritual importance.

Today, the network evening newscasts— ABC’s World News Tonight with David Muir, NBC Nightly News with Lester Holt, and the CBS Evening News with Jeff Glor—still draw a combined 25 million viewers on a good night, far outpacing the top three cable

news shows (Hannity, The Rachel Maddow Show and Tucker Carlson Tonight), which draw 9 million. Thus the evening news remains America’s predominant source of fact in a disputatious age. That is why so many people pay close attention when a new anchor comes on the scene.

We wend our way through the innards of the CBS Broadcast Center—a building hallowed by the ghosts of Edward R. Murrow, Howard K. Smith, Eric Sevareid, Charles Kuralt, Andy Rooney, Mike Wallace, Harry Reasoner, Morley Safer, Ed Bradley and, of course, Walter Cronkite, who anchored the news from 1962 to

1981—until we arrive at the book-filled office that is Jeff Glor’s. The Greenwich resident rises from his desk—lean, taller than expected, thick auburn hair slightly tousled from the cogitations of his 9:30 a.m. editorial meeting.

“I think I celebrated by changing a diaper,” Glor says of the day he learned the job was his. He smiles. “No, there wasn’t a big party.”

Though CBS’s legacy is second to none, its evening newscast has long been mired in third place. In hiring Katie Couric in 2006, CBS secured an authentic star—albeit a morning one—but she never ignited the 6:30 p.m. audience despite some excellent

work. CBS made a more traditional choice in Darien resident Scott Pelley. CBS viewers already admired him for his investigative reporting on 60 Minutes; As Dan Rather said of Pelley, he “burns with the hot, blue flame to report news.” But again the ratings needle remained mysteriously stuck. Last May, amid rumors of a contract dispute, CBS ended Pelley’s six-year turn, and returned him to 60 Minutes full-time.

With lots of in-house talent to draw upon, CBS might have then selected interim anchor Anthony Mason, known for his work on CBS This Morning. Or John Dickerson, host of Face the Nation. Or Anderson Cooper, host of Anderson Cooper 360 on CNN and a part-time correspondent for 60 Minutes. Or Charlie Rose, whose scandal days were still in the offing. Or Jane Pauley. Or Norah O’Donnell. Or Gayle King. Or even Stephen Colbert.

After five months of deliberation, though, they settled on the man called “Who?” So Jeff Glor isn’t a big name. But everything else is there.

His voice is sonorous and relaxed. His smile, when he unsheathes it, is like a stealth weapon: Who would not tell him all he wants to know? And his experience is varied and deep: from breaking the sound barrier in an F-18 to tagging great white sharks in the waters off Montauk; from wildfires out West to hurricanes back East; from the thawing permafrost in Alaska to the crumbling ice shelves in Antarctica; from bombings in Boston to warfare in Iraq; from mass shootings in Aurora, Colorado, to mass shootings in Newtown, Connecticut.

“Sandy Hook was the worst for me, and may always be the worst,” says Glor, who was by then the father of a young boy. “I was there by that afternoon. The next day, at a news conference with one of the family members, I held it together—but then I got back to my rental car and just lost it.”

In Glor’s decade-plus at CBS News— appearing on CBS This Morning, Sunday Morning, 60 Minutes Sports and CBS Evening News—he has shown himself to be less a Mike Wallace than an Ed Bradley—never acerbic and confrontational, as Wallace was, and always curious, polite, and humane, though with a firm edge when needed, as Bradley was. In 2011, Glor won an Emmy for a CBS Sunday Morning piece about the once-prosperous steel town Braddock, Pennsylvania, on the Monongahela River.

Braddock had disintegrated badly until a scary-looking man—six-foot-eight, 350 pounds, shaved head, tattoos—named John Fetterman got himself elected mayor and turned things around. The piece showcases the quiet authority of Glor’s delivery and the lucidity of his writing: Braddock has fallen so far, the 2009 movie The Road—set in a post-apocalyptic wasteland—was filmed on its empty streets. Today, 90 percent of the population of Braddock has left; less than 3,000 people remain. The poverty rate here is three times the national average.

There is no restaurant or ATM, gas station or supermarket. But for the people who stayed in this small town, there is hope . . . and it comes in the form of a very large man.

“Yes, this is television,” Glor remarks. “But the first, second and third most important thing about this business is writing. When I talk to kids coming up, I say, ‘Figure out how to write, whether your story is fifty words or 5,000. If you know how to craft a story, you should succeed in this business.’”

Glor possesses an uncanny ability to bring out the beauty or the beast in interview subjects. For an example of the latter, consider his interview with rock musician Ted Nugent in 2012, shortly after a Nugent tirade meant to support Mitt Romney but far more interested in savaging President Obama, drew a visit from the Secret Service.

GLOR: If Mitt Romney is to win, he needs at least some of the moderate vote.

You are many things, but not moderate. »

JUNE 2018 GREENWICH

89

Jeff covering the 2018 State of the Union live from Capitol Hill

90 GREENWICHMAG.COM

NUGENT: But not very moderate. …

You done many interviews?

GLOR: Decent number.

NUGENT: Call me when you sit down across from someone who has more families call me with more dying little boys and girls to take on their last fishing trip in life! Call me when you meet someone who does that more than I do! Because that’s really moderate! In fact, you know what that is?! That’s EXTREME! I’M AN EXTREMELY LOVING AND PASSIONATE MAN!! And people who investigate me honestly, without the BAGGAGE of political correctness, ascertain the conclusion that I’m a DAMN NICE GUY! And if you can find a screening process more powerful than that, I’ll [BLEEP, BLEEP, BLEEP]!

Glor sat by, unflinching and unfazed.

Nugent then aimed a volley of expletives

at the nearest person who wasn’t Glor, an off-camera producer named Molly. Glor’s mouth opened a little, but that was all.

Another journalist might have packed it in and gone home. But Glor steered Nugent back to a region of sanity: “At the end of every day, and at the end of my life, I will be in the asset column,” Nugent declared. “I will better mankind, I will better the environment, I will better America.”

“Thank you for bettering this interview,” Glor said slyly.

Glor is acknowledged to be so good in the field that CBS lets him out of Studio 57—the bright, airy room from which he broadcasts—as often as it can. Soon after taking over, he tic-tac-toed from France’s presidential palace to the mudslides in California to the latest school massacre, in Parkland, Florida. He turns his computer

J

monitor to show us a rundown of tonight’s newscast. “At this point, we’re leading with Adriana Diaz talking about the school walkouts that took place today”—a nationwide protest by students demanding substantive changes to gun laws. “We’re one minute over,” he adds, noting the show’s total running time. “We have twenty-two minutes to work with when you take out the commercials. There are times when we’re eight minutes over, and we have to keep whittling the show down” as airtime speeds toward them.

“We’re considering what’s going in the show up until 6:29 every night,” says Glor’s executive producer, Mosheh Oinounou. He notes that Glor, far from being a mere news reader, is critical to the process. “Every word, every photo, every story we’re doing, he scrutinizes.”

THE ART OF STORYTELLING Jeff Glor came late to his calling.

Born in Buffalo in 1975, he was raised with his two brothers in a one-story house on Snug Haven Court, a tidy, tree-lined street in the Buffalo suburb of Tonawanda.

As a boy, he delivered the Buffalo News to neighborhood houses, played sports and Dungeons & Dragons, traced the fortunes of the Buffalo Bills, and read, and read, and read. At dinnertime, “against my better judgment,” Jeff’s mother Karen Glor says, the family would switch on the old blackand-white set in the kitchen and watch Walter Cronkite, never dreaming that Jeff, sitting there in his Bills T-shirt, would one day occupy Cronkite’s chair.

“The first time I knew Jeffrey had some presence in front of an audience was in about the fifth grade,” Karen continues. “He recited a poem about Abraham Lincoln, [Walt Whitman’s] ‘O Captain! My Captain!’ He

recited it with such feeling that, not only was I proud of him, but I was moved to tears. To this day it’s embedded in my brain cells.”

At Syracuse University Glor “checked the box for pre-dentistry,” he says, because an uncle and a grandfather had been dentists. One chemistry class later, though, he thought better of it and embarked on a broadcast journalism–economics double major.

Still he hesitated. Syracuse’s S.I. Newhouse School of Public Communications is superb but hardcore, and those who go there tend to be full-blooded news creatures, having already edited high school newspapers and interned at local TV stations. “I was intimidated by a lot of the kids at Newhouse,” Glor admits. “And I was more interested in trying to write books, novels, at that time.”

Barbara Fought (rhymes with “boat”) taught Glor broadcast writing in his sophomore year. “He stood out because he always JUNE 2018 GREENWICH

91

cared about writing,” she says, noting the pains he took to learn how to write for TV, “to write not for the eye, but for the ear—to write conversationally.” She adds, “I remember him coming to my office and wanting to talk about good writing and good storytelling. He’s the only person in my twenty-five years of teaching who has ever done that.”

Glor’s wife, Nicole, also attended Newhouse but didn’t know Jeff there, being two years younger and a cheerleader who was often away at games and tournaments.

“It’s funny,” she says. “I always said when I was in college that I would never date a Newhouse boy. They all wanted to be Tom Brokaw from the time they were two.”

After college, Glor landed at WSTM in Syracuse, and soon Nicole landed there, too, as an assignment editor and a news producer. Right away she knew Jeff was different. He gave the impression of gliding along on the pleasures of work,

above the competitive fray, above the sharpelbowed skirmishing known to plague the field. “He always says, ‘As long as you do good work, people won’t be able to complain about you,’” Nicole says. “He’s not into drama and gossip whatsoever. Just sports and authors and books and news.”

Glor’s conspicuous talent also set him apart. “The first minute I met him, I knew he was going to be a network evening news anchor,” Nicole recalls. “He just had this energy about him, this aura. You could tell he wasn’t going to be in local news very long.” She thinks a moment. “And he’s cute, by the way.”

In December 2016 the Glors moved to Greenwich from Manhattan’s Upper West Side, seeking the sort of leafy green freedom for their children—Jack, eight, and Victoria, three—that they enjoyed growing up. “We wanted something like the Hamptons, but not that far away and not with all that traffic,” Nicole says. “So we

G

jokingly call Greenwich ‘the Gramptons.’”

Nicole has settled in nicely; she’s a fitness instructor at Equinox who also makes fitness videos and appears on national TV, notably Fox and Friends, as a health expert.

Jeff runs with Nicole at Tod’s Point and goes on “reading dates” with her at local coffee shops—but otherwise he inclines toward reclusion.

“Work takes so much out of him that he would really rather be more of a hermit at home on the weekends,” Nicole says. A perfect summer day would see him working out, reading (a lot), frolicking with Jack and Victoria in the pool or on the lawn, and grilling fish bought the same day at Fjord’s.

But Glor is not granted total serenity. “I’m kind of like the social director of our marriage,” Nicole says. “I’m like, ‘Hey, we’re having friends over with kids! We’re going to hang out with them! We’re going to be social!’ And he can’t really say no. But he always warms up to it in the end.”

TIME WILL TELL Glor debuted as anchor of the CBS Evening News on December 4, 2017. CBS executives did not make us privy to the internal discourse that led to Glor’s selection, but surely they reflected that they’d been in third place since the 1990s; that neither Bob Schieffer (who served as interim anchor after Rather), Katie Couric nor Scott Pelley, despite their fame and experience, did much to boost ratings; and that over at top-rated ABC, youth rather than stardom was winning the day in the form of forty-four-year-old Muir, whose career Glor’s powerfully resembles.

So, seven months in, how’s he doing?

Though the numbers fluctuate, he draws roughly 6.2 million viewers a night—about the same as Pelley did, but well shy of Holt’s 7.8 million and Muir’s 8.2 million.

“Changes in audience levels in this time slot are glacial at best, so it is only fair to

92 GREENWICHMAG.COM

judge whether a new face has made a difference eighteen months or so after his arrival,” Andrew Tyndall, who heads The Tyndall Report, an oft-cited journalism analysis newsletter, explains by email.

“Incremental changes are best,” Glor observes. “You can’t change everything overnight. It has to be day by day, and over the long haul it all adds up.”

For now, the differences between the Pelley and Glor newscasts are subtle. There’s the same briskly moving digest of stories— many more than you see on cable, where the same two or three stories are hashed out for hours; and the same fluid quarterbacking—the anchor introducing the play, as it were, then tossing his passes to correspondents in the field. (Glor more zealously promotes CBSN, the network’s twenty-fourhour online streaming video feed, the better to entice younger viewers.) »

Jeff with wife, Nicole and son, Jack

So far, the most marked change is one of tone. “Pelley put extra emphasis on how to lead off his newscast, sometimes welcoming ideological controversy with bluntly worded, declarative introductions to the day’s headlines,” Tyndall says. “Glor’s emphasis, so far, has been on how the newscast ends instead, searching for the non-ideological emotional or even whimsical note with which to bid the viewers good evening.”

True. Glor ends with an upbeat, often lovely story, and does not court controversy as Pelley did. Is this a good thing?

In February 2017, when President Trump accused “the very, very dishonest press” of covering up terrorist attacks, Pelley observed, “It’s been a busy day for presidential statements divorced from reality.” That observation, though well supported by fact, made Pelley a lightning rod: “Right on,” thought some; “I don’t have to watch this,” thought others, Trump supporters who believed Pelley had fatally exposed his bias.

Not long after Glor took over, a woman commented on Glor’s Facebook page, “Thank you, Jeff, for the wonderful job you do on the CBS News… whatever your views, I always feel like you bring it to us down the middle. … You just give us the news and we’ll figure it out ourselves.” Another wrote, “Jeff, it is no longer Mr. Trump. It is now PRESIDENT Trump! You are showing your bias, just like those before you that no

longer have jobs.” (Actually, it’s “Mr.” in the second reference.)

“There’s a segment of the population that’s never going to be happy with any story you do, whether they’re coming out from the extreme right or the extreme left,” Glor says. “Some of the vitriol that you see online, I know it doesn’t represent all of America. The vast majority of people are smarter and more nuanced and more thoughtful than that.”

Still, we wonder how Glor will navigate these touchy times. Cronkite ventured into commentary only once (at least by his own count), when he called the Vietnam War a hopeless “stalemate.” Howard K. Smith believed newspeople were obliged “to take sides on public issues,” as he himself did on segregation. When the current president calls the free press, and CBS specifically, “an enemy of the people”—summoning a grave historical echo—is it incumbent upon the Jeff Glors of the media world to say something? Or does saying something merely add to the ferment of opinion?

Glor replies like a workman bent to his craft. “We’re not trying to make anyone happy or unhappy, we’re just trying to tell stories in the most truthful and fairest manner that we can,” he says. “And if we’re telling stories well, people will find us. But it takes a long time, and you have to prove G yourself every night.”

WHY YOU NEED TO GO

1 BOOTHBAY HARBOR, MAINE

Boothbay Harbor Oceanside Golf Resort

T

boothbayharboroceansideresort.com

his new addition to the luxury hotel scene on Maine’s coastline is a little challenging to understand at a glance. Is it a hotel, a country club, a marina or a collection of luxury cottages? The answer is, all of the above. It could be more accurately referred to as “the land that Paul built.” Owner Paul Coulombe would never say that of course, but the facts speak for themselves. He has invested over $100 million in the region including a complete overhaul of the former Rocktide Inn, the revitalization of the nearby golf course including a brand new $50-million clubhouse, and the restoration of Cuckolds Lighthouse just offshore.

Guests can stay in one of the seventy-nine rooms and suites at the hotel now called the Boothbay Oceanside Resort, or rent one of the five charming cottages that are part of the resort. The real reason to visit, though, is the chance to stay on your own private island in an authentic New England lighthouse complete with staff.

Boothbay Harbor is an hour north of Portland, and Lonely Planet has named the region one of the best places to visit in 2018. Resort guests can pop into town by strolling across the historic footbridge or take a ride on the classic trolley the hotel uses to transport guests.

HOW LONG TO GET THERE The resort is a five-and-a -half-hour drive from Greenwich on I-95. Or take a quick JetBlue flight (just over an hour) from JFK to Portland, rent a car and it’s about an hour’s drive north.

Boothbay increased its dock capacity to welcome larger yachts and provide boat shuttle service.

All guests have full access to the Boothbay Harbor Country Club.

DON’T MISS THIS A visit to the Maine coast is naturally all about the water. The ocean is shared by the lobstermen who have come to symbolize the area—and the whales, puffins and seals that tolerate them. The resort offers several boat trip options, but the most fabulous by far is on the Hope, a gorgeous fiftytwo-foot Morris yacht.

With its white deckhouse and glistening teak deck, she looks classically oldfashioned yet sleek and is considered the Rolls Royce of sailboats. Hop onboard for an evening cocktail cruise for only $50 per person, or splurge and charter her for a private trip for $300 per hour. »

Those looking for complete isolation opt for one of the two guestrooms in the Cuckolds Lighthouse.

There is perhaps no other structure that cuts the same mythological figure as the stately lighthouse.

Cuckolds was built to guide weary sailors to safety when entering Boothbay Harbor past a pair of treacherous ledges of the same name.

But satellite navigation has made the sweeping lights and foghorns of our lighthouses obsolete, and the Coast Guard began selling them off in 2000—making stays like this possible. There are two suites on the island and guests are tended to by a private staff who prepare breakfast, lunch and afternoon tea (a three-course dinner is also available for an additional fee). Your boat and captain are on call to ferry you back and forth to the mainland.

All guests, including lighthouse guests, have membership privileges at the Boothbay Harbor Country Club.

Hope offers three-hour tours or can be privately chartered.

WHY YOU NEED TO GO Yes, they spent $18 million turning this former nondescript behemoth into a five-star resort, but really, we need to talk more about the goats. The hotel is on a site formerly called Goat Island (makes sense now, right?). Even Oprah would agree that hotel’s mascots William and Cornelius are living their best life. The oneyear old pair live in a replica of Newport’s Marble House mansion.

(William Vanderbilt once owned Marble House, and Cornelius Vanderbilt built the Breakers.) Not only are they the perfect Instagram foils, but

guests can help walk the pair (yes, on a leash).

We had fifteen-year-old Lily Bartels do our field research. She says, “The goats are strong and like to head butt for fun. So you have to be careful.

They also have a mind of their own and can climb trees and want to eat all the best landscaping, so the goat handler stays close to help with that.”

DON’T MISS THIS With the area’s abundant attractions and activities (landmark mansions, museums, vineyards, golf courses, beaches, state parks, shopping and sunset cruises), it

could be tempting to spend all your time offproperty. But you don’t want to miss the aptly named Seawater Spa. There’s an indoor heated pool and dry eucalyptus sauna. The facials get high marks from our seriously picky spagoers, and though spa manicures and pedicures can be pricey, the picture windows with water views make the cost worth it.

There’s also a Director of Fun on staff who plans activities like weekend yoga, crafts, wine tasting, mixology sessions, movie nights and much more.

If you really want to head into town, leave your car and take the hotel shuttle. Or see if you can snag one of the house

Porsches; they are on a first-come first-served basis. But be warned that parking in downtown Newport is notoriously tricky, and some lots only give you a few hours. »

WHY YOU NEED TO GO

The grounds offer complete serenity away from the hustle and bustle of the Hamptons.

The Baker House is one of the oldest continuously occupied structures in the United States and its history is movie-worthy. Built in 1640 by a sea captain, the property served as both a tavern and church simultaneously.

In 1911 it underwent a significant renovation in the Elizabethan style.

Unless you are lucky enough to get a weekend invitation to stay with Martha Stewart, there’s perhaps no other way to feel as welcome in the Hamptons. Though there’s no restaurant on-property, a fresh breakfast is served daily with locally sourced produce, gourmet pastries and select egg dishes.

A Di ffe re nt Hampton s EAST HAMPTON, NEW YORK

Baker House 1650 bakerhouse1650.com

T

here is visiting the Hamptons, and then there’s belonging in the Hamptons. A visit to Baker House 1650 offers guests the secret code to the latter. Situated behind Main Street’s prestigious hedges, the property’s long history and 200-year-old wisteria vines are the antidote for the flamboyant glitz of the Hamptons.

The property has only seven rooms, two of which are luxury suites in the renovated Baker Carriage House just behind the main home. In the main house, a magnificent Colonial Revival staircase leads to the five guest rooms; each is named to give a hint about the décor: The Huntting Room has a roaring fireplace and rough-hewn beams, while The Gardiner Room is all William Morris wallpaper and fabrics with garden views. There are two outdoor pools and another in the subterranean spa.

The Carriage House was most recently renovated and the favorite of Greenwich vacationers. The two suites are less bed and breakfast and more five-star resort.

Spa (pool, sauna, steam, Jacuzzi) access is complimentary to guests unless it’s privately booked, which can be done for just $75 per hour. »

114 GREENWICHMAG.COM

HOW LONG TO GET THERE The drive is around two hours depending on traffic, or, of course, there’s always a true Hamptons entrance via helicopter.

Anyone who has ever attempted a weekend beach getaway in the Hamptons knows that although the beaches are open to all, the parking is not. Locals have parking passes to East Hampton’s Main Beach, named by Forbes as one of America’s most beautiful, and enjoy the privilege of parking steps away from the sand, while everyone else is restricted to arriving by bike or on foot. On weekdays you can pay for a day pass, but only a small number are sold on weekends. Guests of Baker House 1650 are given the coveted East Hampton Beach parking passes as well as chairs, towels and umbrellas to sunbathe like longtime locals. »

One of only two suites located in the Carriage House

Whether guests are looking for a shady spot to read or want to get a little sun, the pool is the perfect retreat.

4 Fa mi l y Lux e CAPE COD, MASSACHUSETTS

Wequassett Resort & Golf Club wequassett.com

S

ometimes you want to go where everybody knows your name. It’s a great touch in the hotel business to greet every guest by name, often done at tony properties like the Ritz Carlton. Cape Cod has always had a more “pack your own Volvo with a picnic” vibe.

But the Wequassett Resort on the water near Chatham welcomes both the station wagon and Range Rover set—always by name.

With over two dozen acres of landscaped waterfront property, a pristine beach onproperty and a boat shuttle to the nearby section of the National Seashore, the kids will never get bored. And if they do, or Mom and Dad just want a little alone time, the resort provides babysitting services and offers kid-friendly evening events such as “dive-in” movies at the pool, family fun nights and teen game nights.

There are four accommodation styles to welcome families: The Signature Collection with connecting rooms and wraparound water views; the luxurious Round Cove Suite with one-, two- and three-bedroom options; Cape Cod Cottages for families, offering two-, three- and four-bedroom styles complete with patios and porches; and standard villa rooms.

HOW LONG TO GET THERE

WHY YOU NEED TO GO

The Wequassett Resort is near the popular town of Chatham, Massachusetts, on Cape Cod, a four-hour drive up I-95 depending on traffic.

But once you arrive, park your car and leave it—the hotel offers a free shuttle service so there’s no need to worry about finding parking on busy summer days.

There are resorts that toss a teddy bear at your child and label themselves “family-friendly,” and then there are those that truly invest in making vacation magic for your kids. In addition to the extensive variety of family-friendly rooms and suites, there is an elaborate kids club with a pirate-themed playground, rock climbing wall, puppet shows and treasure chests. There is a separate kids buffet breakfast served daily—in a pirate ship! The family pool overlooks the aptly named “Pleasant Bay,” and there’s no need to worry that the cannonballs will bother childless guests; there is an adults-only pool. Fireplaces and Adirondack chairs are scattered around the property for ghost-story

telling and s’more making.

In season there are daily seal-watching excursions; the Chatham Harbor is home to one of the largest populations of gray and harbor seals in North America.

DON’T MISS THIS Cape Cod is one of the largest barrier islands in the world, but enjoying a piece of truly pristine and secluded beach is not easy. The resort runs shuttle boats to the deserted Outer Beach, part of the magnificent Cape Cod National Seashore fronting the Atlantic Ocean.

With a cluster of longabandoned beach shacks in the distance, seagulls overhead and with no one to fight for beach space, this is quintessential New England at its best. »

WHY YOU NEED TO GO

Two of Saybrook Point’s four accommodation options, the Three Stories and Tall Tales houses

Though the hotel is in one of the oldest towns in Connecticut (Old Saybrook was Yale’s original home), it’s all twenty-first-century ecoconscious. The marina’s two saltwater pools (one indoors and one out) are heated by excess energy and heat produced by the hotel. Saybrook Point was the first Green Lodging Certified Hotel in Connecticut and is a member of the Green Spa Network. The hotel also prides itself on its Farm to Chef Rated Program, as well as receiving the first Clean Marina Award in Connecticut.

5 S tayi ng In-S tate OLD SAYBROOK, CONNECTICUT

Saybrook Point Inn, Marina & Spa saybrook.com

T

he Saybrook Point Inn, Marina & Spa sits on a marina at that magical point where the Connecticut River spills into the salty Long Island Sound. This means that from most guest rooms, as well as the pool, restaurant and bars, there are picturesque views of all manner of boats, from tugs to yachts. (And speaking of yachts, as we often are, the marina can handle vessels up to 200 feet long.) The Inn offers four accommodation styles: the hotel on the marina, the quaint guest houses across the street called Three Stories and Tall Tales, a lighthouse suite and fully stocked vacation homes.

118 GREENWICHMAG.COM

HOW LONG TO GET THERE Old Saybrook is just about a one-hour drive from Greenwich.

Saybrook Point Marina

Sanno Spa is worthy of a trip to the resort no matter the season. The spa (whose name is a nod to the Latin word for health) has a modern yet cozy vibe; the relaxation room features a fireplace, and fleece blankets are draped over every chair.

There are eleven service rooms in addition to Swiss showers and access to both saltwater pools.

We suggest tucking in for a “Kate” Rose Wrap treatment. The body treatment is in honor of the town’s famous neighbor Katherine Hepburn and her love of roses. It includes warm European Rose Clay Mud, a head and face massage, a refreshing shower and then more rose-scented creams.

Post-treatment, wander out the French doors to relax in the charming gardens. All flowers are perennials and chosen to attract a kaleidoscope of butterflies. Birdhouses and feeders dot the trees, drawing feathered friends who act as a natural mosquito control. G
