Today I had the pleasure of visiting the Lyman Allyn Art Museum in New London. Lyman Allyn prides itself on providing arts education to children, and assists with the costs of field trips to the museum for local schools.
I was excited to be able to honor Gavin, a fifth-grader from North Stonington, for his good deed in rescuing a dog trapped in a hot car. When Gavin saw the animal suffering on a hot day in a Walmart parking lot, he spoke up and did something about it.
