The Gloucester Fraternity Club had its beginning: in the early 1920’s when the young men of “Portugee Hill” began to think seriously of organizing a musical group. Ideas from Joseph Vidal and Joseph Mitchell were tossed about during lunch breaks at the Slade Gorton Fish Loft and in January, 1923, 35 enthusiastic young musicians embarked on a new avocation, and their first full year of organization.

Today the Gloucester Fraternity Club still builds on the ideals of its founders. Family, Friendship, Brotherhood, Sisterhood, helping others in the community are still a major ideals of the club.

Members join “TODAY” because of the friendly and caring nature of the GFC. The GFC provides scholarships for members children, donates money and the facilities to help the youth in the community, Sponsors Monthly Special Needs Dances not only for Cape Ann residents but for all those in need throughout the North Shore area.
