Hi Joey,

Walking in the woods this morning it felt like fall, or maybe spring….  It was beautiful, nonetheless.

2014 Art Haven Buoy Pre-Auction Party At The Hive

If I’ve said it once I’ve said it a million times- The Hive and Art Haven have to be either close to or at the very top of a vast majority of organizations involved in making cool events happen in Gloucester.
The positive energy radiating from this place off the chain.
Good people top to bottom and fun times are guaranteed just by being in their presence.
That being said, there is no better time to be in their presence than the annual buoy auction next Friday night when the biggest fundraiser of the year for the organization takes place.
Go and have a fun time and at the same time support a tremendous group of young energetic people who are putting in a ton of energy to make our community a better place.

Huge thanks to major sponsor of the Buoy Auction Cape Ann Savings Bank-

Hi Joey-
Would it be possible to insert info on the Rockport Middle School’s
production of The Little Mermaid?  I’ve attached the poster.
Last year’s production of the musical “Grease” produced several nominations
for the Massachusetts Educational Theater Guild Awards.
Thank you!

You Gotta Be A Special Kinda Person To Wanna Be A Goalie

Like, bring it all and heap it on my shoulders. More times than not you could be the goat but you just don’t care. You step up and say bring that shit to me.
Fire away. Take your best shot. I can’t imagine the frustration that comes with being a goalie.
This video pretty much sums it up though.

Who Says Healthy Food Has To Taste Like Crap? Dinner At Sista Felicia’s…

This wasn’t a tasty meal based on it being healthy.  This was an incredibly tasty meal based on any level at all.  I’d eat this every day of the year.  Packed with protein, and veggies.  Killer diller!

Celebrating 300 Years At The First Congregational Church of Hamilton

Good morning, Joey.

I’m wondering if it would be possible for you to post this on GMG sometime this week? We’d love to have a great turn-out next Saturday (this is the first of three period concerts to celebrate the 300th anniversary of the First Congregational Church of Hamilton), and it’s not very often that the Handel and Haydn Society comes to the North Shore. And not only are they coming to our “neck of the woods,” but seats are only $15!

Thanks so much,

Patricia

Dear friends, 

You DO NOT want to miss the opportunity to see a select ensemble from the internationally known Handel and Haydn Society performing right here in Hamilton in the First Congregational Church sanctuary on Saturday, January 25, at 7:00 p.m.

Highlights of this concert, which is part of our year-long 300th celebration, will include a harpsichordist and many classic eighteenth-century selections.

Information and tickets for this and other upcoming concerts are available online at www.fcchamilton.org.
Please feel free to forward this e-mail to your friends and neighbors.

Life Saving Commendation

All,

On 1-3-14 R-1 (LoCoco and Severance) and E-1 (Harvey, Trupiano, Wonson D, Wonson B.) all responded to a cardiac arrest with by-stander CPR in progress.  The gentleman was successfully resuscitated and subsequently went home with his faculties intact.  This crew was given a great opportunity to make a difference and they did.  Their outstanding resuscitation efforts resulted in a life saved and I want to commend them for a job well done.   The GFD is making regular CPR saves above the traditional averages and the credit for this extends to the community for calling 911 and performing CPR until our arrival and for the dedication to excellence demonstrated by our personnel.

I want to thank these personnel and they will be provided with a written Life Saving Commendation.

Best regards,

Eric Smith
