What is it Like to be a part of Cape Ann Youth Hockey? This.
Such a tremendous video! Back in November, Cape Ann Youth Hockey hosted teams from Montreal, Canada for the annual Sal Grasso Friendship Tournament. As we’ve shared in the past, this tournament has a long, rich history of friendly, yet competitive hockey between our hometown teams at all levels and the Westmount teams. Thanks to some organizing by Patti Nocella and the phenomenal work of https://luxelifeproductions.com/ we are now thrilled to share this video highlighting the weekend.
It is easy to see just how special our hockey community is and that teammate bonds are as special off the ice as they are on. As a league who does not often have the opportunity to play on home ice…this tournament is also special because it gives the Cape Ann community the chance to rally, cheer, and support these skaters…and for an entire weekend at that. And, rally and support they did. The smiles, camaraderie, laughs, and high fives are priceless. The volunteers, organizers, coaches, parents, families, rink staff, fans…and skaters…all play important roles in this tournament and it is thanks to all that this group of hockey players are creating childhood memories to last a lifetime.
Please enjoy this video….and enjoy this peek into the life of our CAYH hockey community.

Bravo By the Sea
As you know, we attended last week’s Crush Cancer event at Tonno. Many local businesses contributed to the fundraising and we will be trying to support these places whenever we can. Today we decided to go to Bravo By the Sea in Manchester as they were very supportive of the Crush Cancer efforts. We met Ella and Nick and had a lovely late lunch. Jim got the chopped salad and we ordered a meatball pizza. Delicious! Friendly! Nearby! Winner Winner. Thank you Bravo for your support.

This is the official promo flyer for the night. If there’s anyway to share it with the greater Gloucester community, or post on a calendar or forum it would be really awesome! We want to help these kids get the instruments they need!

This Week in the Arts 12/13-16/2019
Coco Berkman Linocut Demonstration at the Square Circle Gallery, December 14
In conjunction with the Rockport Makers Festival, printmaker, Coco Berkman will demonstrate the art of Linocut using Old School techniques at the Square Circle Gallery on Saturday, December 14 from 1 to 3pm. The Square Circle Gallery is located at 11 Dock Square at the intersection of Bearskin Neck and Broadway in Rockport, MA.
Using sharp Japanese tools to carve fine lines into soft surfaces, or draw scratchy lines into sheets of copper, zinc and Plexiglas, Berkman will demonstrate how she makes her beautiful linocut prints. After cutting the plate, she rolls thick sticky messy ink onto these etched surfaces with a tool called a brayer and prints those inked images onto clean crisp beautiful sheets of handmade papers with the help of a hand cranked Etching Press. Berkman loves her work and says “This is my passion. I am very very grateful that I am able to indulge in this most serious and important work of PLAY.”
