Buffett family donates boat to USM Gulf Coast Research Lab

Posted on December 6, 2011 by mikep

Singer and songwriter Jimmy Buffett visited the University of Southern Mississippi Gulf Coast Research Lab on Monday (Dec 5) with sisters, Lucy “Lulu” Buffett and Laurie Buffett McGuane, for the christening of the GCRL’s newest boat.

The three siblings donated the vessel to the GCRL to further its educational programs, naming it Miss Peetsy B in honor of their late mother, Mary Lorraine Peetsy Buffett.

Peetsy, as her grandchildren called her, grew up on the Gulf Coast and graduated from the Gulf Park College for Women in 1940. She later received a university degree at the age of 64.

“We’re all here because our mother valued education so much. It was sort of a building block in all of our lives,” said Lucy Buffett.

More of the story at The Sun Herald.

Our trop-rock buddy from Michigan, Don Middlebrook, is on his way home from MOTM in Key West and will stop in Nashville once again to play the Chill Bar at Margaritaville Nashville on Wednesday, November 16th from 5pm until 9:30pm!!

Don did such a great job entertaining the pholks back in October, that Margaritaville invited him back for MORE trop rock songs and parrothead phun! Don is still celebrating his newest CD/DVD release, Tailspin, and would love to share it with you! As usual he’ll also have new and old CD’s and T-shirts to sell and crazy stories to tell!

Posted on September 18, 2011 by mikep

During the week of Sept. 18 – 24 2011 dine out at Margaritaville Nashville and you’ll be helping end childhood hunger in America! Margaritaville will be donating a portion of their proceeds that week to Share Our Strength’s Dine Out For No Kid Hungry.

More than 16 million kids in America struggle with hunger. Share Our Strength connects these kids to the food they need, not just today, but for the long term. Share Our Strength invests the funds raised through Dine Out For No Kid Hungry in its growing number of state and city-based partnerships and in nonprofit organizations across the country. The investments are focused on helping end childhood hunger in the following ways:
* Helping to feed more kids during the summer when school lunches are not available.
* Helping more kids start the school day off right by connecting them to school breakfast.
* Helping afterschool programs provide nutritious meals and snacks.
* Helping families get the food they need at home, by improving access to SNAP (food stamps) and WIC.
* Teaching families how to prepare affordable, healthy meals, and bringing fresh and healthy food options to high-risk communities.
