My View of Life on the Dock

Sponsored by Mayor Sefatia Romeo Theken, the Pride Flag Raising at Gloucester City Hall will take place on Monday, June 10 at 3:00 p.m. Mayor Romeo Theken will be joined by members of City Council and City Staff. The public is welcome and encouraged to attend.
June is Pride Month, which celebrates everyone in the lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer (LGBTQ) community. The rainbow flag, commonly known as the gay pride flag, is a symbol of LGBTQ pride. The original flag had eight stripes. Today, the most commonly used flag, created in 1979 by Gilbert Baker, has six stripes. Each stripe has a different meaning: Red represents life; orange is for healing; yellow is for sunlight; green is for nature; blue is for harmony; and purple is for spirit.
WHEN: Monday, June 10, 2019 at 3:00 p.m
WHAT: Pride Flag Raising
WHERE: Outside Gloucester City Hall, Warren Street Entrance
NOTE: This event is free and open to the public

Dear I Am More Subjects,
I thought the portraits would be having a rest this month, but after staff from SeniorCare Inc. here in Gloucester saw the Rockport display they jumped at the chance to have the portraits for June. Below is an open invitation they put together that you can feel free to pass along and you are welcome to attend if you’d like to mingle and answer questions.
Happy Summer!
Amy

In 2018 Rockport widened much of the Long Beach seawall walkway beginning at the Gloucester side and stretching past the midpoint. Recently crews began extending this project straight through to the end point on the Rockport side. The work is expected to be completed in a couple of weeks.
Rocky explained it’s done in segments and moving right along.


Besides this big project, the getting ready for summer bustle is in full swing. Annual staircase return? Check! Front row cottage work? Check! New patio and masonry work by the former hotel (photos 2018 vs 2019 below) where the stone patio was compromised, various yardwork and private deck repairs are visible along the promenade.
