Public Auction of Folly Cove Estate Items & More – Sept 7, 6pm.

Posted on by Joanne
There will be a Public Auction of a Rockport MA, Folly Cove  Estate & other Cape Ann Estates, Saturday, September 7th, 1 Kondelin Rd. Gloucester, MA (in the Cape Ann Industrial Park) 6pm – Inspection is 4-6pm on the day of the sale.
Cape Ann Auction didn’t hold an auction in August, but it’s not because  they’re sitting around!  They’ve been very busy, here’s what they’re up to.
They’ve moved their entire operation and booked an auction for September 7th, next Saturday in their new auction hall at 1 Kondelin Rd. To give you an idea of what this will mean, they moved from a 1,500 square foot location at 17 Kondelin Rd. to this 10,000 square foot location!
In the past decade, they’ve run auctions at rented halls and at their own small hall 17 Kondelin Rd. During this time, they’ve warehoused many of their best finds for future auctions, hoping to feature them when they found a permanent, more suitable location. #1 Kondelin Rd. is just what they’ve needed to grow. They’ll sell many of these items and other estate contents such as the Rockport MA Estate in the September 7th auction next Saturday. This auction will feature Nautical antiques, Duck Decoys, Historical items and much more!
In the near future, Cape Ann Auction has so much stock, it will run about least every two weeks for a while. So look forward to 2 auctions a month instead of the regular 1 auction per month, at least for a while.
They also hope to run other special events related to the auction business at this location.
There’s plenty of parking and tons of treasures! To see pictures of items in the upcoming auction and get details on future events, go to www.capeannauction.com

SNAPSHOTS FROM A SUPER FUN GLOUCESTER MARITIME HERITAGE DAY!

Posted on by Kimsmithdesigns

Charlotte and I had a fantastic time at Maritime Gloucester Heritage Day, with much, much climbing in and out of the giant lobster pot, seeing friends, art activities, exploring the touch tank, and getting to know a Boa Constrictor 🙂

#GloucesterMA launch service is incredible.

Posted on by Joey Ciaramitaro

Safe, fast, friendly. What a tremendous service provided by our town. For many the launch operators are the first people visitors encounter when coming to town by boat. These gentlemen couldn’t be any better ambassadors. Nice work TJ Ciarametaro, Mayor Sefatia, Gloucester Waterways Board, Launch operators. I give the service a ten out of ten.

Local Resident Joins the Alzheimer’s Association for the Walk to End Alzheimer’s

Posted on by Joey Ciaramitaro

Jeannine O’Neil of Gloucester will participate in the Alzheimer’s Association Neponset Valley Walk to End Alzheimer’s on Saturday, September 14 at Patriot Place in Foxboro. The Walk to End Alzheimer’s is the world’s largest event to raise awareness and funds for Alzheimer’s care, support and research.

O’Neil has had her fair share of family members and friends be diagnosed with Alzheimer’s. Her paternal grandmother passed in 2003 from cancer but had dementia a few years prior, her maternal grandmother had Alzheimer’s for 11 years before passing in 2011. On February 19, 2019, O’Neil’s mother passed away at the age of 66 from Alzheimer’s after a 7 year battle. O’Neil’s father, husband, and herself were all caregivers to her mother before her passing.

“Having been through it a few times, I felt I needed to do something to try and make a change,” said ONeil. “The Walk was something that was easy to do and wasn’t a huge time constraint for me. It’s incredible to see so many people from all walks of life come together to fight this disease at one event.”

“We are grateful to our Walk participants, they are raising the level of awareness in the community and their fundraising dollars fuel our mission,” shared Ryan Vigue, Director of Development at the Alzheimer’s Association, Massachusetts/New Hampshire Chapter. “People of all ages and abilities that join the Walk find it to be an inspiring and empowering experience. Together, we are working towards our vision of a world without Alzheimer’s disease.”

For information, to volunteer or participate in the Walk to End Alzheimer’s, call 800.272.3900 or visit www.alzwalkMANH.org.
