Warm weather brings plenty of opportunities to enjoy the outdoors. If you’re looking for a place to do just that, look no further. From golf to swimming to a nice meal next to the water, Green Hill Country Club offers it all. DelmarvaLife’s Sydney Whitfield takes a trip to Quantico to visit the club and learn more about it.

Last month, we took a trip to Delmarva Dental Services to learn more about invisalign aligner trays and how they work to straighten your teeth. Today, we meet patients using this treatment to change their smile. With three different concerns, we hear from Dr. Leigh Auchey of DDS to see how the treatment was customized to fit each person’s concerns and how they feel after receiving treatment.
