Grass Roots…

The fourth annual Socks and Underwear drive will run for the month of October 2024, sponsored by the Gloucester Unitarian Universalist Church. Donations of new socks, underwear, hats, gloves and mittens for women and men, girls and boys will benefit the clients of three local non-profits: Pathways for Children, Younity and The Grace Center. Two local businesses, Nelsons of Gloucester and The John Tarr Store of Rockport, will participate.

Pathways for Children serves Cape Ann families with children from preschool to adolescence. Younity supports young adults from ages sixteen to twenty five and The Grace Center is a day resource center for adults. All three are important safety net organizations for individuals and families on Cape Ann. The drive provides essential clothing items that can’t be purchased in a thrift store. This year, because the drive has moved from spring to fall, we have added hats, mittens and gloves to the collection and renamed it Socks and Underwear Plus.

Pathways needs children’s sizes from toddler to adult (teen) also in X sizes. Younity needs adult sizes and youthful styles from small to X-large and up, and The Grace Center asks for women’s and men’s sizes from medium to X-large and up.

Donation bins can be found at both stores, at the Church Street door of the Gloucester Unitarian Universalist Church, and at the Unitarian Universalist Society of Rockport. Cash donations are appreciated and will be used to fill gaps in the items collected and allow for purchase of bras, which are not being collected this year. Checks and on-line purchases can be sent to the Gloucester Unitarian Universalist Church, 10 Church Street, Gloucester, MA 01930. Write Socks and Underwear Plus on the subject line of checks. Credit card donations can be made at www.gloucesteruu.org. Please call or email the church office to explain the purpose of a credit card donation.

Hi Joey,

Over 1,500 folks have taken pottery lessons with Cynthia Curtis at her idyllic studio at 80 Pigeon Hill Street in Rockport since she opened it 25 years ago.

To celebrate, this noted pottery teacher is hosting a student show & sale on October 19-20, 10 am-4 pm, with more than 35 potters exhibiting their work. The public is invited to a reception with the artists on October 19, 4-6 pm; light refreshments will be served. 

If you are able to give blood, please consider this upcoming opportunity in Magnolia: ( from the CapeAnn MA Facebook page)

Down by the Riverside…

I stopped at Audrey’s Flower Shop on Railroad Ave for a thank you bouquet and it’s such a treat for the eyes every time you go in there, I just wanted to share some of the colors. AND the service is always stellar. Thank you Heather and crew! Brightened up my day!
