FinnFunn Marketplace–Tori Oct 28th

The FinnFunn Marketplace–Tori will take place during the 31st Annual FinnFunn New England Weekend (finnfunn.org). The event is hosted by Cape Ann Finns (capeannfinns.com) in partnership with Gloucester 400+ (gloucesterma400.org).
The annual FinnFunn Weekend attracts hundreds of people from near and far—and with this year’s event coinciding with the Gloucester 400+ Celebration those numbers are likely to be much higher.

While Nordic and Nordic-inspired goods are expected to be well represented, we are aiming to attract a wide range of vendors with a variety of merchandise.

Please note: Food cannot be consumed inside the venue. Vendors wishing to sell prepared/packaged foods should specify on the form what kinds of products they will have available.

Date: Saturday, October 28
Time: Public 9am to 2pm; Attendees 8am to 2pm

Salty Kids, Update

Received some information on these cuties, their names are Margaret Danger, love the middle name and Calypso.  Love the fact that these kids are so confident on their schooners.  These kids were on the Alert.

The amazing Gloucester Schooner Festival

Oh what a weekend.  Schooners were amazing and so calming.  The weather was totally cooperating with sunshine.  Would like to thank the Gloucester Schooner Festival’s Committee for all the hard work and organization.

On Sunday, Rick and I went on the King Eider for the Schooner parade of sails.  Beautiful day and great time.

 

Sailing on Gloucester Schooner Adventure

What an amazing sail on Friday afternoon on The Adventure.  It was incredible and amazing.  The phots only tell a small story of the beauty of the schooners.  Can not wait to for the rest of the weekend.  Thank you to the crew, volunteers and Captain Christa Miller for a great sail.
