As the heat of the sunny day fades to the cool of the evening, homeowner Anne Monfore offers cocktails to longtime neighbors whose children and grandchildren have grown up together, enjoying all the fun found in this close-knit community. She looks forward to these “porch parties” held during the summer season at her home, appropriately christened Mint Julep, as well as to the myriad activities offered here, from art classes and lectures to walks on nature trails.
