Passports Community Dinner Feb. 7 in Support of Period Partners!
Passports‘ Community Dinner this month will support Period Partners, a local charitable initiative raising money to provide menstrual products to local shelters and The Open Door. Access to menstrual products is a basic survival need, but for many people in America this need goes unmet. Period Partners seeks to address this need on Cape Ann in collaboration with Women’s Equality Cape Ann (WECANN!) and The Open Door. As usual, Passports will donate 10% of all meals sold between 4:30 and closing to this month’s organization.
If you’ve been thinking about a night out, why not consider Passports next Tuesday! The food is great, it’s a worthy cause, and it promises to be a fun night! Reservations recommended.
And we thank our community for all the support so far!

‘Leven & Sorellanza Valentine’s Concert
WHAT TO EXPECT: ‘Leven and Sorellanza performed in concert together for the first time at the Gloucester Meetinghouse in February 2015 and return this year with the Valentine’s Day theme. They began their debut by flying a long banner over the audience as they produced ethereal sounds that set a magical tone to the whole evening.
The varied repertoire of these talented women and their evident exuberance for singing a cappella was hugely entertaining as well as moving for the audience with playful solos, duets and rhythmic gymnastics adding spice to their superbly blended ensembles. Prepare to relax, laugh, remember, and allow the theme of love to permeate your soul with music sung from the heart.
WHAT’S SPECIAL? Two Cape Ann a cappella women’s vocal ensembles raise their voices in songs of Love…and Home…and Love…and Work…and Love…and Life…and Love…and Strength…and Love…and Peace…and Love some more…

Who wouldn’t want to make Rick Doucette Dye His Facial Hair Blue?
Howdy Joey –
Members of YMCA TEEN LEADERS each rocked in rocking chairs for 24-straight-sleepless hours over MLK Weekend. For that extreme effort, they are asking folks to donate non-perishable food items for friends, families and neighbors in need. So far they have collected the equivalent of 5,181 non-perishable food items for our community.
They would like me to ask you to help them reach their goals, so that they may help more folks AND dye my hair electric blue. 100% of all donations will go to support The Open Door and/or the St. Vincent DePaul Society. Cash or cans…whatever is easiest for you. Accepting donations at the Y through February 9.
