September 4, 2023 the Boys Got A Sweet Van
Sept 6, 2022 Another Year-Another Batch Of Lobsters For MIT Skulls
The Boys are Back September 7th, 2021-
It’s the first week of September and that means the Boys From Phi Kappa Sigma Are Back For Their Rush Week Lobsters
Past Years-
Its gotta be a dozen or more years running the men from Phi Kappa Sigma come down to Captain Joe’s for Rush week lobsters.
Tradition. Gotta love it!
If you’re a prospective pledge and you don’t go with PHI KAPPA SIGMA you really need to reevaluate your whole college existence.
Just drop out and become a garbage man already because you’re not college material.
Here they are back in 2008-
The boys from Phi Kappa Sigma at MIT come every year for rush week to pick up a ton of lobsters to serve prospective rushees.
I thought MIT was primarily an engineering school but apparently they have their marketing down pretty good too!
Hi Joey
Can you please share this “thank you“ and update with the GMG readership? Your support and the generosity of your followers was an important part of our success.

Together Gloucester, Inc.’s initiative to help students with sneakers for back to school was a HUGE success …. BIGGER than we could have ever imagined!
❣️Not only were we able to help our local students start the school year off on the right foot, we were able to help a wide population of adult neighbors thanks to a donation of 355 pairs of sneakers from a generous friend at PUMA. 👟❣️👟❣️👟❣️👟❣️👟
A special thank you to the individuals that donated to our Venmo campaign! We purchased new youth sneakers with those funds. We also received a donation of 2 dozen pairs of new youth sneakers from PUMA.
We were able to support our community partners at Wellspring House, Pathways for Children, Gloucester Police Department (Official), West Gloucester Trinitarian Congregational Church, and Gloucester Schools with new sneakers for children and students from pre-school to high school. We also helped our local teachers and school resource officers Kops-n-Kids, Sro Brendan Chipperini, and SRO_Gaming_ with backpacks, a lunch box, new clothes, and school supplies. 👟🎒📓🧦👖✏️
Thanks to the overwhelming generosity of PUMA, we have also distributed several pairs of adult sneakers to the following organizations and community advocates over the past few weeks and hope to continue as needs arise

Our Boy Is In 2nd Place currently. Hitting a birdie on One!

Through 5 tied for 4th two strokes off the lead
Another Birdie! Back to 2nd place through 8!!!
Current situation he’s tied for45th but about 23 players have just started or are within their first 5 holes. They obviously start at par so they would start out ahead of him and as they get bogeys they will drop down. The course will get tougher to play as the greens dry out and the heat in Hopkinton soars to 90. If half those players do worse than him he has a decent chance to play tomorrow and make today’s cut. #prayers 🙏🏻
Update!!!! He’s moved up to 35th at +6 on the day and the projected cut is +8!!! It looks like our boy is going to the final round tomorrow!!!! Woooot!!!

Hi Everyone!
You may have noticed the historical house plaque on the front of the hotel building showing an image of a schooner.
The plaques were designed in 1986 in a tombstone shape with a silhouette of the Ernestina in the arch. It will be be among those schooners featured in the Schoonerfest this weekend.
Ernestina was originally launched in 1894, restored in 1987, designated the official vessel of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts in 1994 (original name: the Effie M. Morrissey) and named a National Historic Landmark in 1990 by the United States Department of the Interior. She is owned by the state of Massachusetts and is part of the New Bedford Whaling National Historical Park.
Gloucester antique house historian, Prudence Fish (1935 – 2022), photographed the Ernestina in 1986 when it was in Gloucester harbor and submitted it as the logo for Gloucester Historical Commission (GHC) historical house plaques. As part of the Historical Commission, Pru oversaw the creation and distribution of the approximately 100 plaques throughout Gloucester, until her death last year.
The GHC historical house plaque project will be resumed this fall and continue to include a hand-painted silhouette of the Ernestina.

ERNESTINA-MORRISSEY
Homeport: New Bedford, MA
Length on Deck: 106 ft
Schoonerfest Location: Maritime Gloucester
Launched in 1894 at the James & Tarr shipyard in Essex as the Effie M. Morrissey named for Captain/owner William Morrissey’s daughter. She has lived her life out fishing the Grand Banks, exploring the Arctic, as a packet ship on Cape Verde and finally as an educational vessel. She was just re-launched this past Spring after nearly a decade of work to bring her back to life and continue her work as the Commonwealth of Massachusetts’ official sailing vessel.
– ERNESTINA earned an award in 1987 from the National Trust for Historic Preservation for “outstanding commitment to excellence in historic preservation.”
– In 1990, the Secretary of the Interior designated ERNESTINA a National Historic Landmark and listed her as in “excellent” condition.
– In 1997, the U.S. Congress established New Bedford Whaling National Historical Park and included ERNESTINA as part of the park.
