With Greystones On Their Side

It’s pretty amazing that CSSM has been going strong every sunny Greystones summer since, eh, 1896.

Then again, what’s not to love about a free summer camp by the sea in a groovy little town?

Especially given that, amidst all that good-for-the-soul God stuff, true love often blossoms, the popular pun being that CSSM really should stand for Come Single, Soon Married.

With their daily morning service kicking off just as the Mobi Mats were being rolled out on the South Beach this morning, wave after wave of happy, smiling kids were all gathered around the traditional CSSM sand altar. Which this year had the stone inscription of Pray, Tell, Have Faith.

And right there, as always, was the bould Ken Gibson, with whom we haddiscussed the early history of CSSM back in 2107, and who also filled us in on the incredible history behind the Bailey & Pim coffee shop down at Greystones station.

Given that the man is such a damn good yakker, we thought we’d find out a little more about this year’s shiny, happy shindig, including how many proposals there’s been so far…
