You might have noticed we shut down the Shag It Cafe a little early last Saturday, but it was with good cause. And that’s because we had to ‘screech in’ 22 members of the Angel Famliy, who were celebrating a family reunion. Captain Dickie did a fabulous job, didn’t he?
Screech-Ins are of course a Newfoundland tradition that, if completed by Mainlanders (by, among other things, downing Screech and Newfoundland ‘steak’ and kissing a cod or cod-like substitute), confers upon them unofficial Newfoundlander status. It’s a rite of passage for any intrepid traveller to the island, and we were more than happy to share it with our guests this evening.
The Angels booked this evening at the Shag It. Wwe’re always happy to acommodate private functions – please find more details here. And congrats to all the new Newfoundland-Angels!
