Winter Growth is celebrating its 40th Anniversary and, as part of the celebration, we've launched The Fabulous Forty Project, which will recognize 40 Fabulous Howard or Montgomery County residents, age 50 and over, who are living their lives with joy and purpose. This is not a best resume, highest achievement, most awards...contest. Instead, it is a chance to honor and be inspired by everyday people who are embracing life and truly living each day to the fullest. Visit the link below to nominate yourself or someone you know by Friday, March 31st.
