We cannot believe it's already August. With an impeding (yet still very very distant...) deadline, we're itching to scratch off every last to-do on our summer bucket list. So to that we say, carpe diem! And seriously, we mean everyday. There's a ton going on each and every day here on Cape Cod. Here's a smattering of this week's must do's:
Today (as in Tuesday August 9): Get your cha cha on.
Ballroom Bliss of Yarmouth is hosting a three session ChaCha and Salsa workshop for both singles and couples. There's something so utterly fantastic and down right memorizing about the salsa. Wouldn't it be fun to surprise all your friends with some never-before-seen dance moves? For more information check out Cape Cod Events . Click here for a list of lessons across the Cape.
Wednesday, August 10
We've already gushed about our experience with Adventure Chatham's paddle boarding rentals here. But because it's just that fun, here's our second round of enthusiasm. Sign up for "Wednesday Night Paddles" from 5:30-7:30 PM. Taking place either at Oyster River, Stage Harbor or Chatham Harbor/North Beach - rent a board ( for only 20 bucks!!!) or bring your own and partake in a gentle group excursion. What a fantastic way to enjoy some of those stellar sunsets we've been seeing recently. Call Adventure Chatham at 800-809-1750 or check their Facebook page for more info.
Looking to entertain the little ones? Head down to the Cape Rep theater in Brewster for the musical adaption of the New York Times bestselling children's book, Click, Clack, Moo, Cows That Type. This isn't your ordinary children's theater. For one thing, it's hidden in the woods and your GPS will be of no help. You need to put on your adventure hat and bring your four wheel drive( but a mini could make it, too) down a winding dirt road and follow the hand painted signs to a well chartered woodsy path. Alas you will reach the most enchanting outdoor theater! It's quite the experience (and we would know, as we enjoyed a fabulous showing just last week!) Showings are every Wednesday and Thursday at 10:30, but get there early because the theater fills up fast. Click here for more info.
Thursday, August 11
This Thursday (and every Thursday through October) head to Yarmouth and check out the Bass River Farm Market and Al Fresco Artists from 8:30-1:00. Enjoy a plethora of local and organic goodies: produce, sea food, baked goods, prepared foods, flowers, and more. Need a little culinary inspiration? At 10:30, Yarmouth Port chef, Lu Matrascia of Primi Piatti, will be sharing a recipe and hosting a cooking demonstration with ingredients a la the farmers market food stuffs. Afterward, venture across the street and check out the works of local artists. The South Yarmouth Library even hosts a special tent for kids. Visit here for more info.
Friday, August 12
Head on down to Wellfleet for a good old fashioned drive in movie. You really gotta do this at least once! Pack the car with pillows, blankets and snacks a plenty (and probably some bug spray too). Catch either The Smurfs or the final installment of Harry Potter.
Saturday - August 13
Buy tickets in advance for the 11th Annual Hookers Ball sponsored by the Cape Cod Commercial Hook Fisherman's Association. This event is so much fun. Tons of great foods, lots of wine, and a whole lot of dancing. Learn more here
Sunday, August 14 - The day of relaxation. Also- the middle of August. Yikes. Take a break. Kick up your feet. Enjoy some (hopefully) sunny summer weather.
