Made by locals, for locals

Our goal

To give you a clean, honest place for local events, activities, and restaurants, all in a single spot. No endless feed designed to keep you scrolling, and no addictive algorithm deciding what you see.

Get in, find something that you’d really like to do, share with friends and family, and get on with your day.

We’re a local family from Norwalk who wanted exactly that: a simpler way to stay involved in our community and make the most of where we live. If it helps you spend less time searching and more time actually out in the neighborhood, it’s doing its job.

Why a seagull?

Our beaches sit on the Sound, and the seagull is the bird you see over the harbor, along the beaches, or on a lamppost eyeing your sandwich. We didn’t go hunting for a mascot so much as pick our ever-present neighbor.

The name came from the same place. Shenanigans is the good, faintly silly business of a life outside work: trivia on a Tuesday, a pottery class you turn out to be no good at, an oyster festival in the rain. It’s also, precisely, what the seagulls get up to on our beaches all summer — turning up wherever something is happening, entirely certain they were invited.

That seemed about right for a site whose whole job is knowing where the fun is.

One simple place for what’s happening near you. That’s the whole idea.
