Merle and Dwayne had an awesome conversation with Amanda and Ernie on Business Connections, the podcast of the Windham Region Chamber of Commerce. It was a great opportunity to talk about WAIM's upcoming fall and winter programming, including the Walk for Warmth, which is less than two weeks away on Sunday, November 23, starting at St. Joseph's Church in Willimantic.
