GOOD NEWS! Keith Richards Receiving Connecticut Award of Excellence.

Keith Richards from The Rolling Stones (did yo know he’s lived in CT for a long time? Since 1985. I had no idea. I wonder what town?)

Anyway.

The award was established this year to celebrate Connecticut residents who "epitomize the state's core values of creativity, resourcefulness, passion, and generosity,"

Keith will receive a custom-designed medallion

Richards will also be given the "Key to the State."

The award ceremony happens tomorrow at the Westport library.
