Root Center for Advanced Recovery is excited to return to Lyman Orchards Golf Club on Thursday, September 23, 2027 , for the Rooted in Giving Golf Classic , bringing community partners, local businesses, and supporters together for another day of golf with a purpose. Following the success of this year's tournament, we're already looking ahead to another opportunity to connect on the course while creating an impact throughout the communities we serve. In 2027, proceeds from the tournament will support the Root Center Giving Fund , an initiative dedicated to giving back to nonprofit organizations and community partners whose work strengthens communities across Connecticut. At Root Center, we know meaningful change doesn't happen through the work of one organization alone. Through the Root Center Giving Fund, we're proud to support community partners including Prudence Crandall Center , Connecticut Foodshare , Connecticut Community for Addiction Recovery (CCAR) , St. Vincent de Paul Middletown , Southeastern Council on Alcoholism and Drug Dependence (SCADD) , and InterCommunity . Dollars raised at the Rooted in Giving Golf Classic will help us continue supporting organizations doing meaningful work throughout the state. Together, we're proud to be Putting Fore Nonprofits and extending the impact of the tournament far beyond the golf course. Save the Date Date: Thursday, September 23, 2027 Location: Lyman Orchards Golf Club, Middlefield, CT Additional details, including registration information, sponsorship opportunities, tournament schedule, and more, will be announced as we get closer to the event.

Root Center Joins Wethersfield's Scarecrows Along Main Each October, Old Wethersfield transforms into a celebration of community, creativity, and fall traditions as more than 100 handmade scarecrows line historic Main Street. Organized by the Old Wethersfield Shopkeepers Association, Scarecrows Along Main brings together local businesses, nonprofits, schools, families, and community organizations in a month-long display that draws visitors from across the region. This year, Root Center for Advanced Recovery was proud to join the tradition with a custom scarecrow inspired by Frida Kahlo. Known for her vibrant artwork, resilience, and dedication to self-expression, Frida served as the perfect inspiration for a display celebrating creativity and individuality. Visitors can find Root Center's scarecrow on Main Street in Old Wethersfield, in front of The Burrow, directly across from Main Street Creamery and Griffith Academy.
