I came across this interesting article in the Travel/News section of National Geographic online. I had not heard a potential explanation for the gorgeous light we always seem to enjoy here, so thanks Oliver Barker for the insight! Click here for link. You may have to supply an email address to read whole article online.

When we get called to podcast, off we go. Last Tuesday we live-streamed from Mom’s Kitchen on Commercial Street. Cozy setting, varied menu, friendly service are hallmarks for Mom’s. I hope you saw us there! I just had to share a few pics of my yummy BLT and surroundings. Such a gem right here in Gloucester!

We took a ride to Ipswich River Craft to take a peek behind the curtain, which Pamela was happy to provide. It’s pretty fascinating to see nautical signs at all steps in the creation process. We ordered our own car magnets and will await their arrival! Thanks, Pamela for the gracious tour. Check out the website for additional pictures and ideas.

Hey Joey!

Look at your (great), site every day to keep up with things…  the only comment I have is that sometimes you will highlight a restaurant or store and not list their address…. I think it would help those places if it were easier to find rather than having to look it up on the internet.  Just sayin…..

Thanks!  And keep up the great work!

Jim

Thanks Jim, here’s a quick tutorial. You can pick up yur phone and say “Hey Siri… Tonno Gloucester” the results will pop up. you can do this for all the restaurants around town. It also works for businesses. I find it very useful and not very difficult. You don’t even need to type.

A lot of people ask me these kind of questions. Hopefully this is helpful

As we await the next storm, a few outdoor encounters over the last week and a half.

From the Gloucester Daily Times: People age 65 and older, residents and staff of low-income and affordable senior housing, and individuals with two or more health conditions that put them at higher risk from COVID-19 will be able to start booking vaccine appointments Thursday, as the state shifts to the next priority group in its phased immunization plan.

Gloucester400™’s Organizational Partner Program Launches with Far-reaching Support Throughout Cape Ann

22 Local Organizations Sign on and “Show the Love” for Gloucester’s 400^th Anniversary Celebration – with More to Come

Gloucester, MA – February 12, 2021 – Just in time for Valentine’s Day, Gloucester400™ has unveiled a new program designed to strengthen connections with the community, heighten awareness of the city’s 400^th anniversary, and encourage involvement among a broad range of organizations including non-profits, corporations, and local businesses. The program is the Gloucester400 Organizational Partners Program.  

In its first wave of alliances, Gloucester400 has already attracted 22 organizations that are willing to collaborate and pledge support to working together on behalf of Gloucester’s 400^th-anniversary celebration.

“Working with the entire community to produce a successful quadricentennial is essential,” said Laura Ventimiglia, the Gloucester400 executive director. “Looking ahead to 2023, our initial organizational partners share our collaborative nature, appreciation of Gloucester’s history, and excitement about the city’s future. We look forward to working closely with them and other interested organizations to carry out a celebration that is worthy of our 400-year history.”

Gloucester400 Organizational Partners

The first wave of Organizational Partners includes 22 of Cape Ann’s most well-known and well-respected organizations. Each is unique in its mission, members, and clients, reflecting the rich diversity that has strengthened Gloucester and its Sandy Bay heritage for almost 400 years. Current partners are:

• 1623 Studios
• Annisquam Village Players
• Backyard Growers
• Cape Ann Animal Aid
• Cape Ann Finns
• Cape Ann Media Productions
• Cape Ann YMCA
• Cape Ann Chamber of Commerce
• Gloucester Adventure, Inc.
• Gloucester Cultural Initiative
• Gloucester Marine Genomics Institute (GMGI)
• Good Morning Gloucester
• Greenbelt – Essex County’s Land Trust
• Hammond Museum, Inc.
• LEAP for Education
• Manship Artists Residency & Studios
• Ocean Alliance 
• Pathways for Children, Inc
• Rockport Music 
• The Open Door
• The Sawyer Free Library
• Wellspring House

“We’ve been very pleased by the rapid and wide-ranging response to the Organizational Partner Program. A key aspect of the program is that it allows and encourages each participating organization to retain its unique identity, be its unique self, and participate in a way that is consistent with its respective mission. In our conversations with various Partner representatives the excitement about participating in Gloucester 400 is evident and the early wave of Partnerships indicates that our collaborative approach is successful,” Ventimiglia commented. “It is also worth noting that among our initial partners and in keeping with their slogan ‘We’re Here for You,’ the Sawyer Free Library was the very first organization to partner with us. 

What Does the Organizational Partners Program Entail?

The Gloucester400 Organizational Partner Program establishes an agreement between Gloucester400 and the participating partner to jointly promote the work that each does for the City of Gloucester, thereby bringing attention to their fine contributions. Further, promoting each other’s activities and events that commemorate the City’s quadricentennial mutually raises awareness and drives engagement towards initiatives that serve to celebrate Gloucester’s 400-year history. This happens in the form of marketing and outreach by each organization to their respective memberships, communities, and constituents on behalf of Gloucester’s 400^th anniversary celebration.

Partners may also host or sponsor a commemorative event or project, although they are not required to do so, thus leaving the level and nature of involvement intentionally flexible to accommodate the partners’ respective missions, priorities, and resources. 

Organizations interested in participating are invited to contact Laura Ventimiglia at gloucester400stories@gmail.com.
