MAMMA MIA NOW PLAYING AT GLOUCESTER HIGH SCHOOL!
Sharon Bo Abrams shares –
ABBA’s hits tell the hilarious story of a young woman’s search for her birth father. This sunny and funny tale unfolds on a Greek island paradise. On the eve of her wedding, a daughter’s quest to discover the identity of her father brings three men from her mother’s past back to the island they last visited 20 years ago.
This is an enchanting tale of love, laughter and friendship, (also inappropriate dialogue, and questionable moral content) but for sure an unforgettable show. The large cast, non-stop laughs and explosive dance numbers combine to make Mamma Mia! a guaranteed smash hit.
A mother. A daughter. Three possible dads. Hours of Abba Songs?
You should come.
You should bring other people.
Maybe people ages 10 and up unless they are already seasoned Mamma Mia fans.

Beautiful Nighttime Vernal Pond Field Trip
Greetings from the Pond Team,
We had a nice field trip last night to Nugent’s Stretch. Good choruses of wood frogs and spring peepers. We saw plenty of wood frogs and a few spring peepers, a few dozen spotted salamanders including a congress complete with spermatophores, caddisfly larvae and fairy shrimp. I think the forecasted cooler temps will shut things down for a while. Keep watching your e-blasts.
Expect a photo spread from last night and we’ll post it on the website asap.
We are looking for a few small entryway rugs with rubber backing or a large one about 4 feet wide by 6 or 8 feet long for THE SHOP. Let us know if you would like to donate to our office/store. If you know of someone who is downsizing and has some cool stuff for THE SHOP, please tell them about us and the work we do.
We have numerous events scheduled on the Activity Calendar for Earth Day in April. Check them out at the link below.
Thanks,
Rick and the Pond Team

Friday, April 5th: the GLOUCESTER MEETINGHOUSE FOUNDATION presents ‘MASTERPIECE,’ an a cappella concert by the SKYLARK VOCAL ENSEMBLE
The internationally acclaimed a cappella choir Skylark will perform a program called ‘Masterpiece’ at 7:00pm with a 6:00pm pre-concert talk on Friday, April 5th in the historic (1806) Gloucester Meetinghouse at the corner of Middle and Church Streets. A reception to celebrate the performers follows the concert.
Over the centuries, art has inspired music, and music has inspired art. In this innovative multi-faceted program, Skylark will offer musical reflections and reactions to the visual arts from the ancient to the modern.
Skylark’s program will pair a specific piece of art with a particular musical composition from the same time period. Beginning with watercolors and music by Felix Mendelssohn and Hugo Alfvén, the program will progress through the impressionists Renoir and Monet – paired with music by Ravel and Debussy – to art and music of good friends Pablo Picasso and Francis Poulenc.
From Picasso, Skylark will introduce audiences to the…

OWL OVERHEAD!
My sister-in-law Amy and her husband Arnold were visiting over the weekend. Arnold shared a photo from a recent trip that they took to Dunrobin Castle, which is just north of the villages of Golspie and Dornoch in the Northern Highlands. While at the castle they went to a falconry exhibition where Arnold captured a photo of the owl flying over the audience’s heads. I’m wondering if this is perhaps the Eurasian Eagle Owl.
