He without knowing helped a lot of people.

Travelers along the 85-mile Essex Coastal Scenic Byway will experience the best of coastal New England: historic seaports, colonial era farms, village and city centers, and a wealth of period architecture. Set against a rocky shoreline and The Great Marsh, New England’s largest salt marsh, the byway traverses thirteen historic communities on Boston’s North Shore.

People needed to hammer and saw – Lanes Cove Fish Shack Saturday

This Saturday we will be putting down rough sawn 1 by whatever flooring and replacing the worst spots of sheathing. This is where we need more volunteers than the core group of professionals that have been doing heavy framing and masonry work. Bring a hammer, Saturday morning around 8 or 9.

Hi, Joey.  I’ve met you several times at the GMG parties.  For a couple of years, I had artwork on display at Fred Bodin’s gallery on Main St.  I have since opened my own gallery, and I was hoping you would put it on the blog.  It’s in Rockport, but I’m from Gloucester, so I’m hoping it will still qualify for GMG!  It’s called The Art Nook, and it’s at 6R Dock Square.  We just opened yesterday, and we’re planning an Opening Reception on Saturday July 14th at 6pm.  We have work by local artists including myself (Kathleen Miller), Stefan Mierz and Jean Byrd, among others.  It’s definitely going to be an eclectic gallery with original, unique fine art!  Here’s the sign template and the basic info if you can put it on the blog, maybe next week before the opening?  Please let me know :). Thanks so much!!  – Kathleen Miller

25 TH ANNIVERSARY CAPE ANN CHAMBER OF COMMERCE ANNUAL AUCTION

The Cape Ann Chamber of Commerce’s Annual Auction celebrates its silver Anniversary on Thursday, July 19 at 5:00 pm at the Essex Room, a proud member of the Woodman Family Tradition, 125R Main Street, Essex, MA. This annual gathering brings bidders from across New England in hopes of going home with the marquee item of the auction. Headed up by co-chairs Carol Morse and Tony Corrao, the auction buzz is humming along with items coming in from many Chamber members who have generously donated.

“This is one of the premier social gatherings on Cape Ann,” said Carol Morse, who has been a staunch supporter of the auction for many years. “Last year was such a success on one of the best nights we had all summer. The bidding, the social interaction and catching up with friends was so wonderful to see.”

Corrao, owner of Precision Roofing of New England, has also been a huge part of the auction for many years and is very successful in securing donations, both on and off Cape Ann.

“Being involved for so long, I have had the pleasure of meeting so many people year in and year out,” said Corrao. “They are always willing to give and that makes me feel great, being a native son of Cape Ann. Our members’ generosity is something special.”

Red Sox tickets, wonderful artwork, tickets to the North Shore Music Theatre and an African Photo Safari are just tips of the auction iceberg with plenty of other prizes up for bid. For a complete list of items up for auction, visit http://www.capeannchamber.com. Tickets for the 25 th Anniversary Auction are $25 in advance or $30 at the door.

Looking to make a donation or attend the event? Contact Tim Burton at tim@capeannchamber.com or call him at 978-283-1601.
