We are pleased to announce that Celebrate Our Waters – the signature event of the Orleans Pond Coalition – is being re-imagined for 2025. In addition to retaining some of the popular festivities in September, OPC will add fun and informative activities in the spring and summer.
Earth Day Celebrate Our Waters:
Thanks to all the volunteers who joined us on April 26th for our traditional Earth Day beach clean-up day. There was also:
- hands-on demonstrations of water management strategies and
- ways to create a Cape friendly lawn, and
- a scavenger hunt for kids and families.
