Hey friends, so our 3rd annual Welcome Home to Cape Ann initiative is back on its planning stages. I am hoping I can once again get the support of local friends and business owners and in spreading the word for us. This year we are welcoming 10 veterans back home (1 female-9 males) if anyone is willing or knows of anyone willing to make any sort of donation it would be greatly appreciated. We are looking for anything from local restaurant gift cards to family friendly establishment passes for veterans with children, spa days, market basket gift cards, etc.. anything is greatly appreciated. Monetary donations are also accepted- please pm me for more information. Please contact either myself, Adam Curcuru Gloucester VA Office, or Jayne Morse at the Gloucester Elks Lodge for more details. Thank you all in advance and share away if needed.

The sun and snow were at odds yesterday afternoon as we were driving through the White Mountains.   Took this leaving lunch at the Mt. Washington Hotel which made for a pretty winter scene.   Heading back home today…back to the grind tomorrow but enjoyed my few days out of dodge!

Over a year old now and still not sure what to do with his shadow and/or reflection.  This guy loves the beach as much as the rest of the family!

January 16th statement – 

Hello my friends and Gloucester business partners,
I just had another visitor (Fellow Shop Owner of Main Street) who was concerned because they had heard TBT Post was leaving.
That rumor is 100% false.
We love Gloucester and our customers & friends we have made here.
We have expanded our office space in the back of the TBT Post Main Street Store as well.
TB Post has also added a sectional couch in the store for customer convenience, a new service desk and dozens of new tables to enhance the store for our customers. TBT Post is currently shopping for a kids table that will allow children to color in an Alpaca pictures while mom and dad shop. More to come on that shortly once we have the prizes for the kids ready too.
We do continue to have more than one store with the opening of TBT Post Beverly and our MAB Corporate address continues to be 33 Main Street Gloucester as it has been since we opened here 3 years ago this spring.

If you should here this rumor please squash it and thank you.

We love you Gloucester!!!!
