If possible, I’m hoping you’d be willing to help spread the word about the new GHS Girls Volleyball team fundraiser with your amazing FB community. 

Thanks to the incredible determination and hard work of several Gloucester High School students, girls’ volleyball is making its long-awaited return to the fall sports lineup! The enthusiasm this year has been truly inspiring, with a larger than expected number of girls trying out and training all summer long with their captains. It’s wonderful to see so much interest and energy around the sport’s comeback.

But the team needs our help! In order to host home games, the GHS Girls Volleyball team is raising funds to purchase essential equipment, including new poles, nets, and other gear required for regulation play. Right now, the team is practicing with a men’s volleyball net that doesn’t meet the proper size standards. Having the right equipment will ensure our athletes can compete safely and proudly on their home court.

The team is halfway to their fundraising goal of $10,000. Every donation brings them closer to hosting home games and sustaining the program for years to come. Every donation truly makes a difference.

The Chamber sent out “essay questions” to the three mayoral candidates to get their comments in writing on the downtown, waterfront, tourism and housing.

Because they are all offered, here they are:

Gloucester, MA – Join us for an unforgettable evening as speaker and historian Richard Carlson brings to life the rich and storied past of Ten Pound Island, one of Rocky Neck’s most iconic and intriguing landmarks. His engaging presentation promises a journey through centuries of history, mystery, and artistic inspiration.

Ten Pound Island has been a central figure in the area’s history since well before Samuel de Champlain chartered the coast in 1606.

This lively talk will also dive into the island’s more enigmatic moments. Expect tales of sea monster sightings, the infamous Great Rat Flood, and the ways in which artists have been captivated by the island’s beauty over the years.

Whether you’re a history buff, maritime folklore lover, or simply curious about Gloucester’s hidden gems, this is an event you won’t want to miss.

Chief Edward Conley is pleased to report that the Gloucester Police Department is welcoming a new officer who just graduated from the police academy.

Officer Noah Dimaio is a lifelong Gloucester resident who graduated from Gloucester High School in 2018. He earned a bachelor’s degree in criminology and criminal justice from Merrimack College. 

Officer Dimaio graduated from the Boston Police Academy on Aug. 22. The Boston Police Academy provides an intense, 29-week academy program that includes studies in procedural justice, physical and mental endurance training, de-escalation tactics, and more. 

Outside of work, Officer Dimaio enjoys playing basketball, soccer, and riding motorcycles.

Officer Dimaio will now be assigned to work with a Field Training Officer for seven weeks before he begins to patrol on his own.

“I want to welcome Officer Dimaio to the Gloucester Police Department,” said Chief Conley. “I look forward to seeing where his career will take him, and am pleased to add yet another well-trained officer to our department.”
