On April 6 local Rockport photographer Angela Cook of Oasis Rockport will join with PPA Charities (the philanthropic arm of Professional Photographers of America) to promote “Celebration of Smiles Day” at Emerson Inn by the Sea on One Cathedral Ave in Rockport from 10am – 2pm. This national fundraising effort will benefit Operation Smile, which treats children around the world who suffer with cleft lips, cleft palates and other facial deformities.
For your donation of $24, you will receive the gift of an individual portrait session and a desk-size portrait. This donation represents one tenth of $240, the amount needed to help fund a single surgery. According to Lexington, Kentucky photographer Tim Walden, President of Professional Photographers of America (PPA), “Celebration of Smiles Day” is the perfect opportunity to have your portrait made or that of a loved one, because in doing so you are making it possible to truly change the lives of children who would otherwise face a lifetime of pain and rejection.”
For further information contact: Angela Cook at (978) 290-3184.

International Dory Race Committee boat maintenance this Saturday
Spring has sprung!
After shrugging off the last of winter’s cold grasp, spring is finally here and it’s time to get our dories prepared for the season. Volunteer a couple hours this Saturday, April 6th, at Eastern Ave. Self Storage (meeting around 8 AM). We plan to haul out the two practice dories that have been in the water a full year to dry out and scrape/sand the race dories. So bring your scraper or sander or just you to help us preserve and beautify our dories for 2013.
See you there!
Erik
