TheIsland From Lukas Struppe and Matilda Grow

Lukas writes-
Hello Joey,

My name is Lukas Struppe and I am a student at Gloucester High School. My friend, Matilda Grow, have produced a short documentary on the influence the waterfront has on Gloucester’s culture. We were wondering if you could share it to the rest of Gloucester for us through your website. If you could let me know of your decision of posting it or not that would be great, but I will send the link to you anyway right now.

Thank you for your time and consideration!

Sincerely,

Lukas Struppe

On June 10th, over 600 students and staff of the O’Maley Innovation Middle School in Gloucester, MA came together to create a lip dub to celebrate the S.A.I.L.S. initiative that is underway at the school.

S.A.I.L.S. stands for Service, Acceptance, Integrity, Leadership and Success, and this is the second year the students have chosen a theme song to represent SAILS for the year and put together a lip dub to help promote and foster the SAILS values and to build a positive community.

This year’s song choice was “Hall of Fame” by The Script featuring will.i.am.

Discover TribeTats: Cape Ann’s New Summer Essential

If you’ve been following the antics on GMG over the years then you’re familiar with one of our favorite lobstermen Tuffy.  Tuffy has provided some GMG classics such as Sean’s Swan Dive and The Whole Viral Buddhist Monk Lobster Liberation Madness

Well his daughter Degelis started a new company called TribeTats and here’s the promo for it-

Cape Ann has a new favorite summer accessory: TribeTats metallic body art, applied like the temporary tattoos we used in our youth but made for adults. The brand was founded by the daughter of Gloucester lobsterman Mike Tufts, and are quickly becoming must-haves for local kids, teens and adults alike.  TribeTats is offering a special 30% off and free shipping for our readers on their website www.tribetats.com with the code GMG30 at checkout.   

Antigua_10 

Apply the temporary tats for a day at Good Harbor or Wingaersheek Beach, and keep them on for happy hour at the Studio or the Rudder on Rocky Neck. TribeTats will also be stocked at Linda Bella Boutique later this month. Contact Degelis at degelis@tribetats.com if you want to order in bulk for a summer event or have other partnership ideas. 

Follow TribeTats on instagram here along with their 320K followers.
