Many of you are working from home (some with kids and pets), many are feeling lost without your national sports games, local restaurants and gyms, and a lot of you are on lock-down, having cancelled your spring break travel plans.
At Madison, we believe that, while we can't anticipate what the pandemic will do in the future, we can control how we respond to it. That's why the team at Madison & Company has decided to put together a list of fun things you can do during this time.
