Things To Do- Cooking Classes With The Gloucester Fishermen’s wives

From Caitlin Chandler
Rockport Recreation Committee-

Hi Joe,

The Rockport Recreation Committee along with the Gloucester Fishermen’s Wives Association will be running a series of cooking classes at Rockport High School. They will be using local caught fresh fish that are part of the Cape Ann Fresh Catch Program. Didn’t know if this is something you might be interested in putting in your blog.

Fresh fish equals good health-please join us! The Rockport Recreation Committee in collaboration with The Gloucester Fishermen’s Wives Association (GFWA) will offer cooking classes using fresh caught local fish that are part of the Cape Ann Fresh Catch (Community Supported Fisheries). For the last 42 years the GFWA has been teaching the art of cooking around the world-now it is time to come back to our local community and share their skills with us. The GFWA will provide hands-on cooking classes using whole fish with filleting techniques taught as well.  Classes are $60.00 per session, each session meeting for three classes. The classes will run on Wednesday nights, from 6 to 9pm. They will be held at the Home/Health classroom at Rockport High School. Session one will be held on April 28th, May 5th and 12th, and session two will run May 19th, 26th and June 2nd. Please register soon, classes are limited in size to allow for hands-on instructions. To register please go to www.town.rockport.ma.us. Questions call 978-290-4343 or Email rockportrecreation@msn.com.

These cooking classes will be offered to Rockport residents only.
