2023 Celebrate Our Waters Updates

Out of an abundance of caution, and in partnership with the Town of Orleans, we are cancelling a number of events for this weekend.

While OPC would love to celebrate the beauty and awe of our shared waters this weekend with you, Hurricane Lee is a potentially powerful storm with strong winds, significant rain and a significant tide surge.  Mother nature’s power and awe needs to be respected.  We will update plans as the weather forecast becomes more certain.  Please check our website often for updates and most importantly, please stay safe.

Click either of the buttons below to check on the status of your particular interest or activity.
