Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Cape Cod National Seashore sees four to five million visitors a year, many of them vacationing families. Through personal experience working at both of the park’s main visitor facilities over the past six years, I have come to recognize that families often come to the visitor centers in search of advice on what they can do together at the park. Many families need guidance on how to enjoy the resources of the park together during their vacations. Furthermore, a trip to Cape Cod can often prove to be expensive, especially for larger families. The family activity guide to the Cape Cod National Seashore provides those visitors seeking fun, educational, and affordable things to do at the park with ideas and inspiration for activities that allow them to enjoy the multitude of unique natural and cultural resources the park has to offer while spending quality time outdoors as a family. This guide was developed through reviewing comparable publications, and working with park education and interpretation staff to refine and test activities included in the guide. It is the goal of this project to have the guide accepted through the MSES program and to have the final product available to visitors both online through the park website and a park visitor centers.

Book excerpt: The classic nature memoir of Cape Cod in the early twentieth century, “written with simplicity, sympathy, and beauty” (New York Herald Tribune). When Henry Beston returned home from World War I, he sought refuge and healing at a house on the outer beach of Cape Cod. He was so taken by the natural beauty of his surroundings that his two-week stay extended into a yearlong solitary adventure. He spent his time trying to capture in words the wonders of the magical landscape he found himself in thrall to. In The Outermost House, Beston chronicles his experiences observing the migrations of seabirds, the rhythms of the tide, the windblown dunes, and the scatter of stars in the changing summer sky. Beston argued: “The world today is sick to its thin blood for the lack of elemental things, for fire before the hands, for water, for air, for the dear earth itself underfoot.” Nearly a century after publication, Beston’s words are more true than ever.

Download or read book Cape Cod Visitor's Guide written by William Peace and published by . This book was released on 2017-04-28 with total page 110 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cape Cod, a tiny peninsula jutting out into the Atlantic, the "Outermost of Lands," as Henry Beston had called it: white-sand beaches, cranberry bogs, dunes, lighthouses, bike paths, gentle ocean breezes and plenty of sun are here for all to enjoy, and easy to find! But there are so many hidden gems on Cape Cod, not exactly secret places, but places a little off-the-beaten path, that many visitors miss out on some of the best things to see and do on the Cape. And so many of them are free or very inexpensive! And that is exactly why this book is written. It is written from an "insider's" view, by a local resident who knows all the ins and outs of Cape Cod, all the back roads, and all the things to see, with the intent of sharing some of these wonderful locations for more to enjoy. It is written with everyone in mind, from the children to the adults in the family - the author has a family, too, and knows just what kinds of things both kids and adults can enjoy! Unlike many guidebooks that try to cover the entire Cape, this book focuses just on the Upper Cape. From Nobska Lighthouse to the Dexter Grist Mill to the Sandwich Boardwalk, from the Scusset Fish Pier to the Aptucxet Trading Post to the Wampanoag Museum or Pairpoint Glasssworks or the Woods Hole Aquarium - there are many, many things to see and lots of "I didn't know that's" in Falmouth, Sandwich, Mashpee, Bourne and Sagamore. On a summer day, more than 125,000 vehicles cross the Sagamore and Bourne Bridges that span the gorgeous 7-mile Cape Cod Canal, and with that symbolic crossing, visitors often leave all their worries behind. Our book guides you to those real Cape Cod spots that you come to the Cape to see; visit a few each day and you are certain to reflect wistfully when you do cross back over that Canal. Each place that you visit will make you want to stay on Cape Cod even longer! Enjoy your vacation! Leave the "mainland" behind!

Download or read book The Greatest Beach written by Ethan Carr and published by University of Georgia Press. This book was released on 2019-06-01 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the mid-nineteenth century, Thoreau recognized the importance of preserving the complex and fragile landscape of Cape Cod, with its weathered windmills, expansive beaches, dunes, wetlands, harbors, and the lives that flourished here, supported by the maritime industries and saltworks. One hundred years later, the National Park Service—working with a group of concerned locals, then-senator John F. Kennedy, and other supporters—took on the challenge of meeting the needs of a burgeoning public in this region of unique natural beauty and cultural heritage. To those who were settled in the remote wilds of the Cape, the impending development was threatening, and as the award-winning historian Ethan Carr explains, the visionary plan to create a national seashore came very close to failure. Success was achieved through unprecedented public outreach, as the National Park Service and like-minded Cape Codders worked to convince entire communities of the long-term value of a park that could accommodate millions of tourists. Years of contentious negotiations resulted in the innovative compromise between private and public interests now known as the “Cape Cod model.” The Greatest Beach is essential reading for all who are concerned with protecting the nation’s gradually diminishing cultural landscapes. In his final analysis of Cape Cod National Seashore, Carr poses provocative questions about how to balance the conservation of natural and cultural resources in regions threatened by increasing visitation and development.
