Jim and I were honored to be able to attend the 2023 Holiday Awards Luncheon presented by Discover Gloucester at the Cruiseport yesterday. Five awards were bestowed to a number of Gloucester’s finest promoters: Alana Horne and Kiley Davis (the MAG-nificent Contributors award); Isabel Pett (Most Valuable Event Planner award); Joey Ciaramitaro (Outstanding Appreciation award); The Gloucester House/Blue Collar Lenny and Dottie Linquata (Exceptional Service award); and Tobin Dominick (the Tobin Dominick Leadership award). A number of friends, family members, city representatives and politicians joined Discover Gloucester members to honor the winners. Here’s a few representative photos:

Sharing information from the Magnolia Historical Society regarding their event Sunday December 17 on Magnolia Ave:

We do not get to Nichols Candy on Crafts Road nearly enough so we made a special stop to shop for some holiday goodies. Stepping inside is the very definition of Winter Wonderland at this time of the year. You just can’t go wrong. And if browsing isn’t your thing, they also offer online ordering. Win Win.
