William Doeflinger, who died in 2000, “collected” many well known sea shanties at the Sailor’s Snug Harbor retirement home in Staten Island, NY. In its current incarnation, it is called the William Main Doerflinger Memorial Sea Shanty Sessions at the Noble Maritime Collection at Snug Harbor. The suggested donation is $15.Īround New York harbor, we have been fortunate to have had a monthly shanty (or chantey, if you prefer) sing for over a dozen years. This Saturday night, January7th, the Mystic Seaport will be hosting a “ Chantey Blast and Pub Sing” from 1-5 PM in the Frohsinn Hall (aka the German Club), 54 Greenmanville Avenue, in Mystic CT as a fundraiser for the 33rd Annual Mystic Seaport Sea Music Festival coming up in June. Why should that change now?īut change is always possible-even in Fawn Creek.William Main Doerflinger Memorial Sea Shanty Sessions at the Noble Maritime Collection at Snug Harbor
Who would dare stop her? The kids in Fawn Creek’s seventh-grade class have lived under her rule for years. When the Fawn Creek kids all go to Saintlodge for a dance, Renni plans to use Janie and Abby to help her expose and punish Orchid for the liar she is. But Renni is never one to accept or forgive.
Greyson and Dorothy accept their friend even though she isn’t the world traveler she said she was. And over in Saintlodge, Renni learns the same thing. Soon they find out that Orchid Mason isn’t who she claims to be. Greyson and Dorothy have never been to Orchid’s house, so one Saturday they walk in the direction they see her take from school. Once they’re done sharing, Janie can’t help but notice all the mean comments had one source-Renni. Then everyone else shares compliments about the person. They each share something mean that someone said about them-something they still think about when they look in the mirror. One day, Orchid and a few of the girls play a game called mirror, mirror. Meanwhile, Orchid’s kindness is helping her classmates think about themselves and each other differently. And when Renni learns her ex-boyfriend, Colt, might be interested in this new girl, she makes it her mission to learn about the strange, well-traveled newcomer. The news of Orchid’s arrival soon reaches the ears of Renni via her friends Janie and Abby. But guys in Fawn Creek are only into football and hunting-as Greyson’s mean older brother constantly reminds him. He wishes his mom would teach him about sewing and fabrics because of his interest in fashion. Greyson’s name is the least of his problems. When Dorothy admits that she doesn’t like her own name, Orchid encourages her to try a new nickname. Orchid befriends Greyson and Dorothy and tells them about her life moving all around the globe, from being born in New York City to most recently living in Paris.
Just when Fawn Creek seems to be getting even more predictable, though, Orchid Mason arrives. And truth be told, Greyson and Dorothy are more than happy to have the mean, rich girl out of their hair. Renni Dean had been part of this collection since the beginning, too, but now she’s moved to the neighboring town of Saintlodge. Barn and Slowly’s family runs the other half, but they couldn’t care less. Janie and Abby’s family runs half this Louisiana town, and they don’t let anyone forget it. Daelyn, Baylee and Hallie call themselves the God Squad. He’s known every kid in his seventh-grade class since they started school together. Greyson knows exactly what to expect out of his quiet best friend, Dorothy.
