WHERE TO BE
Mike Pallotta: Breakfast With Santa
Alumnus of both The St. Agnes School and Arlington Catholic High School, Mike spent some time giving back to his community at Breakfast with Santa this past week. "Breakfast with Santa is a great way for the families of St. Agnes to get into the Christmas spirit. My nieces had a blast seeing Santa and doing crafts. As an alumni of both schools, I'm always happy to support St. Agnes, Arlington Catholic, and the local community," he said.
Mark Garbino: Catch a Bruins Game
As a New England native, it's only fitting Mark Garbino loves Boston spots, particularly the Bruins. No matter the season, the players, or the score the spirit is always high in TD Garden when the Bruins are playing. Mark and his fiancée attend a game whenever they get the chance.
