SANDWICH COUNCIL on AGING NEWSLETTER Director SANDWICH COUNCIL ON AGING NEWSLETTER September 2021 270 Quaker Meetinghouse Road - East Sandwich, MA 02537 Phone (508) 888-4737 Email: [email protected] Director - Susan Marancik As we move closer to fall, it is a joy to report we have been fully open to the public for several months, with programming back in place. It has been wonderful to see everyone! The biggest re- ward for the staff is seeing your joy in resuming activities you have missed and reconnecting with friends you may not have seen for some time. It has been a fun summer even with the plentiful rain. Highlights have included an outdoor lunch- eon with great seafood from Seafood Sam’s “Fish on the Fly” food truck, Jukebox Bingo with guest announcer Mike Riley of Boston sports media fame, coffee and Cape Cod Donuts, nature walks, movies, corn hole, gardening with the Roberti Community Gardeners and our fresh summer pro- duce program. Our schedule will continue as posted. Should there be any change to programming or protocols, be sure to sign up for our email updates and like our Facebook page for the latest updates. Check in- side this newsletter for additional Covid-19 vaccine and testing resources and information. The Sandwich Center for Active Living continues to progress on schedule. You may have noticed the elevator shaft has been built and a lot of earth moved! The foundation work continues and some structural work for the gym and walking track has begun. Additional framing will happen in the weeks ahead to be ready for winter and interior work. September is National Senior Center month and also includes Fall Prevention Week. In past years the National COA selects a theme, this year they encouraged us to choose our own which we have decided is “say yes to new adventures”! The past year meant saying yes to a lot of new adventures (mostly unplanned!). We are celebrating with new programming including strength and balance classes, fall prevention exercises, our own antiques roadshow, the UCLA Memory Training class, Zumba, car talk, sports talk and more! Stay well, see you soon and don’t forget to say yes to new adventures!

  • Scenes from a Lost Hotel: the Cape Codder, 1930-1945 by Norah Schneider, Collections Manager
    Scenes from a Lost Hotel: The Cape Codder, 1930-1945 by Norah Schneider, Collections Manager Most people are familiar with the Cape Codder Hotel in West Falmouth. Opened as the Sippewissett Hotel in 1900 by John C. Haynes on the former site of Richard L. Swift’s sheep farm, over the years it was also called the Cleveland Hotel and the Mayflower Hotel. In 1930, owners Mr. and Mrs. Percival F. Brine renamed it the Cape Codder. When Captain John R. Peterson leased it in 1936—later buying it in 1940—he kept the name, and so it was known until the hotel was torn down to make room for condos in 1988. Well, if those walls could have talked . Fortunately for us, The Enterprise served as the social media of the day, so tales of the Cape Codder still remain today. Police activity at the Cape Codder in July 1936 resulted from two illegal slot machines—one nickel machine and one dime machine. Falmouth police seized the machines and hotel manager Charles Edward pleaded guilty to “possessing gaming implements.”1 The Cape Codder Hotel and its signs became the center of town and state debates in the summer of 1937. In July, Falmouth selectmen would not allow owner John R. Peterson to maintain three signs measuring eighteen square feet and directing traffic to the hotel. A few weeks later, the state Department of Public Works found three signs illegally on Route 28 in Falmouth—two advertising the Cape Codder and one advertising Charlotte Crest campground.2 The Boston Shamrocks, a team in the American Football League and 1936 champions, trained for their season opener at the Cape Codder in 1 “Slot Machines Seized,” Falmouth Enterprise, Thursday, July 16, 1936, 1.
