Like its sister venue, the Cape Cod Melody Tent in Hyannis, the South Shore Music Circus is owned and operated by a not-for-profit organization that supports arts and education programs in Southeastern Massachusetts.

Jack Conway’s years of dedicated involvement with South Shore Hospital, both personally and by his firm, were celebrated at the recent Luminaria evening at the Boston Marriot Quincy.

Jack Conway awarded for Community Service at South Shore Hospital Luminaria Fundraiser

Chairman Jack Conway stands and waves to the crowd at the South Shore Hospital’s Luminaria event after being honored with a gold medal.

Crystal goblets, sparkling chandeliers and a sumptuous surf and turf dinner were on the agenda as the founder of the 56-year old Jack Conway Real Estate firm, took home “the gold.” Conway was one of four honorees to receive gold medals recognizing their contributions in “lighting the path” for health care in Southeastern Massachusetts.

The fundraising gala celebrated the 100th anniversary of the hospital’s home care division, which includes visiting nurse, hospice, and private duty home health services. Receiving the Luminaria awards along with Conway were Victoria Kennedy, attorney and health care advocate and widow of Sen. Ted Kennedy, Dr. David Halle, MD, associate director of the South Shore Medical Center, and Frank Lagroteria, Sr., who was honored posthumously for his community involvement.

Conway, 88, a longtime South Shore Hospital Trustee, accepted his gold medal proudly as it was slipped over his head on the ballroom stage.

“My father is a worthy recipient of this honor,” said Conway CEO Carol Bulman, who co-chaired the event. “Over the years, he has played a leadership role in planning and supporting hospital initiatives and he is a huge advocate of hospice and home health services. My Dad has received outstanding care at the South Shore Hospital as have many of our Conway Country employees. We are so lucky to have this wonderful facility right in our own backyard.”

Take the family out to beautiful Demarest Lloyd State Park in Dartmouth, MA.If you want to bring the family to a “kid friendly” beach, enjoy a day at the Demarest Lloyd State Park in Dartmouth. This little known summer haven offers shaded picnic areas, views of the Elizabeth islands and 600 yards of shallow saltwater beach along beautiful Buzzards Bay.

The surf is much calmer than nearby Horseneck Beach and because it’s not deep, the water stays relatively warm most of the summer. During low tide, you can walk out to the sandbars and investigate colonies of small crabs, periwinkles and mussels and let the kids explore sea life “up close and personal.”

The park has on-site restrooms and shower facilities, and offers daily sightings of hawks, ospreys, terns and other less common sea birds. You can canoe, kayak, swim and fish, or hike along the walking trails in the scenic forest area.

Demarest Lloyd State Park, located on Barney’s Joy Road in South Dartmouth, is open from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. on weekdays and 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. on weekends and holidays from Memorial Day through Labor Day.

Conway Team Members Leverage Relationship With Leading Real Estate Companies Of The World

Jack Conway South Dennis Realtors Melanie Cauchon and Cyndi Teixeira were among more than 300 attendees from the U.S. and abroad at the recent Luxury Portfolio Summit, held at the posh Waldorf Astoria Hotel in Orlando, Fla.

The event was hosted by Luxury Portfolio International, the high-end marketing division of the Leading Real Estate Companies of the World (Leading RE), a global relocation network with nearly 550 member companies producing $225 billion in annual home sales.

The summit featured a 3-day action-packed program where top Realtors and marketers came together to share tips on selling their high-end listings to a global audience. Participants learned from industry leaders how to advance and foster business for their properties at the local and international level.

“It was a phenomenal opportunity to meet and learn from the top agents in the U.S. from LA to New York, and Dallas to Seattle,” said Cauchon. “I also met agents who sell prestigious homes in Paris, Spain, Switzerland, St. Barts and Costa Rica. It really opened our eyes to how far we can reach with Luxury Portfolio and the Leading RE network.”
