We have been promising ourselves to stop by Capt Hooks on Washington St. We just happened to be driving by and decided to stop and fulfill our promise to ourselves. We hadn’t been there since the famous GMG tuna challenge and have never had dine-in there. It was later in the afternoon so the inside seating was plentiful, though take out orders were steadily going out the door. I got an Italian sub and Jim got the Italiano. I happened to hear another customer telling the counter help that the Italian sub was his absolute favorite so I felt secure in my choice! It was a very good sandwich and Jim very much enjoyed his as well. I was a little surprised by the wide variety of menu choices. The service was efficient and friendly. The dining area was clean and well kept. A nice little afternoon break. Thanks Capt Hooks!

Bob was one of the many that way overpaid for the cap knowing 100% of the money for this batch was going to pay toward Scottie Mac’s recovery fund. Other’s that way overpaid- Frank Mccormick, Kenny Tashjy, Jeff Tarr and Richard Ross

We have a ton of raffle items, including the flatscreen TV, sister, Felicia’s book, Echo Dot, framed photo, sign by senator tour of the state house, Mountain bike, Prince guitar art, Glenn Hale photos, a ton of gift cards, etc.

I took a walk along the State Pier on a sunny day recently to take a closer look at some of the mighty vessels. I thought you might enjoy the same.

and really this time of year you don’t have to worry about getting stuck at the bridge to get there.

I’d like to thank my wife Katelyn Ciaramitaro for leading the fundraising 50/50, raffle and silent auction with Ralph DiGiorgio. I’d like to thank Caitlin Pszenny and Nic for being incredible hosts and donating all of the bowling proceeds. Thanks go out to the bowlers who showed up and had a great time. I’d like to thank Ruth Carroll Pino, Annie Rochon and Susan Gould Coviello for help collecting money at the gate. I’d like to thank Pat Dalpiaz and Jim Dalpiaz for her work as treasurer. Teresa Imbrunone Ferrara for her patient help at Cape Ann Savings Bank. Most importantly I’d like to thank all those local businesses and residents that donated raffle prizes and bought raffle tickets that drove home the huge number for Scottie’s care. I’d be remiss to not mention Warren Waugh and Karen Hanson for their support in the darkest days of trying to get Scottie home.
