Gloucester opens warming centers

Given Monday’s extreme low temperatures, the city of Gloucester has established warming centers for those unable to get out of the cold.

Action Inc., 180 Main St., provides overnight sheltering for those who are unhoused, operating from 4:30 p.m. to 8 a.m. daily, with a capacity of 16 beds and an extreme weather overflow policy. It also offers assistance with heating costs and potential system repairs for income-qualified households (978-282-1000).

Water rescuers lauded

On sweltering Tuesday, June 24, folks enjoying a day on the beach or on the water and city lifeguards jumped into action in two separate water rescues about seven hours apart to save the lives of three children and a 77-year-old man.

The first rescue by bystanders and lifeguards involved an older man who suffered a medical emergency while swimming at Good Harbor Beach around 12:30 p.m.

Pair prepares for a 700-mile water journey

The 20-foot dory, Heart o’ Gloucester, commissioned by Gloucester’s James “Jimmy T” Tarantino, is a daily sight on Gloucester Harbor as preparations continue for its 700-mile journey to Nova Scotia later this month.

Tarantino and dory mate Sarah Lewine have been training year-round and will compete in a race and an open-water event over the next two weekends before their official departure for Canada.

Sandy Bay’s Jabez Tarr fought at the Battle of Bunker Hill

When the Battle of Bunker Hill is reenacted at Stage Fort Park later this week, the Tarr family of Gloucester will be thinking about Jabez Tarr, a 15-year-old soldier who was among the Gloucester colonists who fought in the battle.

Jabez is one of their ancestors and a descendent of first settler Richard Tarr, a founder of what was called Sandy Bay in the colonial era.

Ocean Explorers make connections to the sea

About 25 fifth-graders from the Plum Cove Elementary School in Lanesville set sail aboard Schooner Ardelle and got to see a dogfish and a horseshoe crab up close in a large aquarium tank on Tuesday, June 10, in a day of marine science programing at Maritime Gloucester on Harbor Loop.

Later in the day, the students took part in a small graduation ceremony as they finished up their participation in Maritime Gloucester’s Ocean Explorers program, now in its 21st year.
