Serenitee Now!

Posted on by Pat D

On our way to the podcast Sunday, we stopped at Happy Belly for coffee.  We used our Serenitee card to build some points AND that coffee rocks!  It was a perfect way to start the day.

We ended the day celebrating my birthday at Lat 43, again using the Serenitee card rewards for a FREE entree AND dessert.  Did I mention FREE?  We started and ended the day with Serenitee……….. priceless.

The emphasis is to have fun in a safe, non-competitive space welcome to all. Please come prepared to share, to listen and to applaud.

Any act, performed solo, duo or in small groups, up to five minutes long is welcome. Performances may draw from a multitude of forms – spoken word, dance, music, song, skits, monologues, magic, poetry, comedy and so on. If you can dream it, create it and bring it!  Be sure to sign up for a spot when you arrive.

For Halloween fun, costumes are encouraged. There will be trivia games and prizes.

Those Sea Cadets are Just Flying Helicopters, No Big Deal

Posted on by Nichole S.

Gloucester’s David G. Ouellet Division of the US Naval Sea Cadets had the pretty phenomenal opportunity to fly with Boston Helicopter yesterday.  Each member took a turn to take to the air with a pilot and even got the go ahead to take the controls.  Unseasonably warm temperatures and a bright blue sky made the day all the more perfect.

In Sea Cadet fashion, the day wasn’t only about the chance to fly.  Under the direction of their distinguished leaders, instructors, and Petty Officers the cadets also participated in combat medical training and gun safety training.  They practiced marching, spent some time in class, and took a brief exam on the material presented to them at their last drill.

I can’t say enough about this program.  If you have or know of a child age 10-17 who may be interested in or could benefit from the US Naval Sea Cadet program do yourself a favor and inquire.

Pet of the Week- Shiloh

Posted on by Alicia Pensarosa

10.23.2017 Pet of the Week--Shiloh

Hi my name is Shiloh. The folks here are guessing I have some hound or cattle dog in my mix. I am a happy go lucky kind of guy always  have my tail wagging and pleased to see you. I am 3 years old and medium size so I would be perfect for car rides or outdoor adventures. I am over the young puppy phase and looking for a family to show me the ropes of home living. I have met a few other dogs and I seem to enjoy their company so I wouldn’t mind sharing my space.

Please stop by the shelter to meet me to see if I might be your match!  To see all of the available dogs and cats at the Christopher Cutler Rich Animal Shelter please go to our website: capeannanimalaid.org.
