🐚 Sailabration, Pizza Face-Off, and Coastal Rituals

_{Together with}

Good morning, neighbor — the Lower Cape just turned up the heat.

Papa Gino’s over Ember?
Rock Harbor’s “overrated”?
Someone pineappled a slice at Buca’s — and now they’re ghosted from the group chat.

🍕 Yup. The Lower Cape Pizza Face-Off is officially on.
It’s town vs. town. Crust vs. crust. No ties, just toppings and truth.

But the buzz doesn’t stop at pizza.
The trails are blooming with lilac and salt air.
Horseshoe crabs are moonwalking under the stars.
Soft-shell crab is back on the plate.
And Sailabration? It’s turning heartache into hope — one paddle raise at a time.

So yeah — it’s not just summer.
It’s our summer.

Crusts are crisp. Feelings are fragile.
Let’s ride the magic together.

Defend your dough.
Back your town.
And scroll like the weekend starts now.

🏡 What If the Home You Already Own Could Open New Doors?

Sponsored by Radtke & Associates — where local meets legit

Cape homes aren’t just properties. They’re memories. That old cedar-shingled colonial in Harwich? It’s where summer tomatoes are still canned on the same stove. That Orleans cape? It’s seen weddings, graduations, and 5 a.m. coffee on the deck.

But beneath the charm is something else — growing equity. Quietly building value, year by year.

That equity isn’t just sitting there. It’s leverage. It’s opportunity. It’s a tool.

Right now, long-time homeowners across the Lower Cape are tapping into that value — not to sell, but to build what’s next:

🔹 A rental-ready studio over the garage, bringing in $1,200/month
🔹 Down payment help for a grown child trying to stay local
🔹 A refinance that turns today’s bills into tomorrow’s freedom

This isn’t theoretical finance talk — this is real, local strategy. A response to today’s market without giving up the roof over your head or the roots you’ve grown under it.

💬 Thinking About a Refi? A Rental? A Way to Help Your Kids?

The right next step starts with the right conversation — with a local pro who understands the Cape market and works closely with trusted lenders offering practical, transparent options.

No pressure. Just clear answers and smart options — from someone who gets it.

🍕 THE LOWER CAPE PIZZA RUMBLE: ROUND ONE
Four Towns. One Crown. It’s Crust vs. Crust.

Welcome to the fiercest culinary face-off this side of the Sagamore. This isn’t dinner — it’s a declaration. The Lower Cape Pizza Rumble is officially underway, and the grease has never looked more glamorous.

Forget food critics. Forget Yelp. This is real. This is local. This is personal.

Each town brings its best. Brewster, Chatham, Harwich, and Orleans — their ovens are hot, their followings are loyal, and their crusts? Controversial. We’re voting for the best pie in each town this week.

Next week? The winners go crust-to-crust in a final showdown to crown the Lower Cape’s true Pizza Monarch.

Let’s break it down.

🧁 BREWSTER: The Crust Crusaders

🔥 Stone L’Oven Pizza Co.
Tucked just off the Rail Trail, this one’s the local whisper. Three-day cold-ferment dough, stone-fired at 625°, and crust that sings back when you bite it. Cyclists plan their route around it — and honestly, so do some families.

🍺 Brewster Pizza House & Sports Bar
Neon lights. Booths built for loud laughs. And pizza that’s seen Brewster through heartbreak seasons and hometown victories. Grab a pitcher, order the usual, and settle in — this is where game day and garlic bread live side by side.

🍷 Laurino’s Tavern
This isn’t just dinner — it’s tradition. Since 1973, the Laurino family has been ladling Sunday gravy and pouring Chianti with quiet pride. The garlic knots? If you had a second date here, you’re not alone. And yes, they still make everything from scratch.

🍅 CHATHAM: The Thin-Crust Tacticians

Carmine’s Pizza 🧀
Downtown staple, where locals and visitors align on one truth: it just hits. Clean crust, bold sauce, and zero nonsense.

Pizza Shark (Chatham) 🦈
Yes, it’s inside the Chatham Orpheum Theater. Yes, you can eat pizza with a side of film noir. And yes, their crust has bite. It’s pizza… with plot.

Knots Landing NE Pizza ⚓️
Run by the Malitas siblings, this slice shop feels like Chatham’s family crest. Cozy, classic, and carrying the kind of loyalty that starts playground debates.

Sweet Tomatoes Pizza 🍅
New Haven–style. Razor-thin. Unapologetically crisp. This is the place you order from in a whisper, so no one else beats you to it.

Del Mar Bar & Bistro ✨
Yes, it’s white-tablecloth fine dining. But don’t sleep on their wood-fired pizza. Herb-kissed, smoke-touched, and plated like a Vogue centerfold.

🌿 HARWICH: The Heat-Bringers

Ember Coal Fire Pizza 🔥
Part patio party, part pizza spectacle. The fire dances, the cocktails pour, and the crust crackles like drama on a summer night.

George’s Pizza House 🧀
Walk in sandy, leave happy. A Cape Cod institution that trades in consistency and hometown heart. If your beach towel smells like pizza — this is why.

Hot Stove Saloon ⚾️
Baseball shrine turned pizza den. Come for the Sox game, stay for the thick cheese and louder-than-average crust crunch.

Harwich Port House of Pizza 🍕
The unsung hero. Locals don’t rave — they just keep going. No fanfare, just flavor. You’ll get it after the first bite.

Pleasant Lake Pizza Shark 🦈
Hidden inside a historic general store. Breakfast pizza. Devoted regulars. And a name that sparks rumors and cravings across town lines.

NYC Twisted Pizza 🍯
The new kid with old-school swagger. Bee Sting on the menu, graffiti on the walls, and a garlic crust that bites back. It’s Harwich’s rebel pie — and yeah, it’s kind of addictive.

⚓ ORLEANS: The Flavor Commanders

La Bella Vita Kitchen & Bar ✨
Picture-perfect plating with a crust to match. Mediterranean flair meets Cape ease. Vogue-worthy visuals, hometown roots.

3 Fools 🤪
They’re not just wild. They’re wise. Experimental slices that feel like edible dares — and somehow, always work.

Izzo’s Pizza 💥
Sharp, fresh, and lightning-fast. The kind of spot where one bite in, you’re texting three friends: “You HAVE to try this.”

Rock Harbor Grill 🔥
Wood-fired, sea-salted magic. Ideal post-beach ritual. Bonus: their crust holds up to everything — even rumors of being the best on Cape.

🗳️ First Comes Town Pride. Then... Total Slice Domination.

This week is about your hometown hero.
We’re crowning the best pizzeria in each of the four towns.

But next week?
We take the gloves off.
The four winners will go head-to-head in the Final Slice Showdown — a battle for Lower Cape pizza supremacy.

No ties. No second place. Just one golden slice.

So cast your vote. Loudly.
Because if you don’t defend your dough… someone else will.

Voting closes June 4.
Bragging rights last forever.👇

🌊 Sailabration 2025

One Bay. One Night. One Community That Gives.

Some Cape Cod evenings feel like a celebration.
This one feels like a promise.

On Monday, June 30, under the soft sky at Wequassett Resort, the Pleasant Bay community gathers not just for candlelight and music, but to lift something bigger than any one of us:
Access. Healing. Hope.
This is Sailabration 2025, the annual gala for Pleasant Bay Community Boating—and one of the most meaningful nights of the year.

It’s a fundraiser. But more than that, it’s a homecoming.
A reminder of why this bay matters—and who it’s for.

✨ An Evening That Feels Like Coming Home

Golden hour on the bay.
Oysters on ice. Music in the air. Glasses clinking softly under string lights.

But what truly fills the evening is purpose.
Every ticket, every raffle, every auction bid, every paddle raised during Fund-A-Need helps raise $175,000 to keep Pleasant Bay open for:

– Kids learning to sail for the first time
– Adults with physical and cognitive disabilities
– Families who’ve never set foot on a boat
– Anyone in need of the peace this water brings

This is how the community makes access possible.
Not just for some—for all.

🌱 A Mission Carried by the Cape

Pleasant Bay Community Boating was born from grief.
In 2003, after several teen suicides shook Harwich, a teacher looked to the water and imagined a quiet kind of healing.

No speeches. No signs.
Just sailboats. A borrowed stretch of beach. And a community willing to believe in second chances.

Two decades later, that belief is still sailing strong—because of nights like this, and people like you.

🎟️ Event Details

🗓️ Monday, June 30 | 6 PM
📍 Wequassett Resort, Harwich
🎫 Tickets
→ $175 until June 1 | $200 after
💻 Silent Auction: June 23–30
💌 Questions or sponsorships: [email protected] or call 508.945.7245 (SAIL)

💙 Why It Matters

Because Pleasant Bay has been more than a view.
It’s been a classroom, a refuge, a fresh start.

And when the community comes together—someone new finds their way to the water.

This is your Sailabration.
It truly won’t be the same without you.

🌲 Trail Tales from Brewster

🗓 Friday, May 30 · 🕰 10:00 AM – 1:00 PM
🌿 Forest Bathing Meditation Walk — With a Journal Twist
📍 Wing Island Trail
Cape Cod Museum of Natural History, Brewster

It starts with the scent — pine needles, salt air, and that earthy quiet after a high tide.
Then the path opens. Light filters through the trees. The chatter in your head begins to hush.
This isn’t a hike. It’s a reset.

Locals keep saying the same thing after this walk:
“It’s not about moving — it’s about breathing again.”

This Friday, join a guided forest bathing experience like no other:

🧘‍♀️ Led by Dr. Carol Marcy — a clinical psychologist and movement therapist who blends mindfulness with gentle motion
📓 Bring a journal — not for structure or prompts, but for whatever drifts up while the birds sing and the tide rolls in
🔇 Phones off, presence on — this is about real-time calm, not Instagram calm

No pressure to share. No performance. Just a few hours of nature, stillness, and space to think — or not think at all.

👟 What to Bring:
– A journal you enjoy writing in (bonus if it’s hardback)
– Your favorite pen
– Water
– Comfy shoes for a little trail grit and sand

🕰 10:00 AM – 1:00 PM
💲 $50 (limited spots available)
🔗 Reserve your spot here »

You won’t leave with a finished essay.
You’ll leave with something rarer: a breath you didn’t know you were holding, released somewhere between the birdsong and the breeze.

If your week has been loud, come walk where the quiet lives.
Spots are limited — and the trail waits just once.

💫 Silver Days, Golden Moments: Your Weekly COA Roundup

Local, lively, and full of heart — here’s what’s happening for our silver stars across Brewster, Chatham, Harwich, and Orleans.

🎨 Brewster COA – 1673 Main St | ☎️ 508-896-2737

This week in Brewster feels like a warm cup of tea on a rainy day — familiar, comforting, and quietly energizing. Start your Monday and Thursday with Gentle Yoga (9 AM) or kick it up a notch with Fitness with Joni (Mon & Fri, 10:30 AM) — she brings the pep, you bring the sneakers.

If words are more your rhythm, the Writing Group (Tues, 10 AM) offers a safe space to reflect and create. Game lovers? Duplicate Bridge (Mon 1 PM) and Scrabble, Mahjong, and Chess (Thurs 1 PM) bring a mix of friendly rivalry and laughter. And for the artists? The Watercolor Drop-in (Tues 1 PM) lets you paint the week in your own colors — no critique, just creativity.

🌊 Chatham COA (CFAL) – 193 Stony Hill Rd | ☎️ 508-945-5190

Chatham this Thursday is a gentle storm of wellness and wisdom. It begins with the basics — Blood Pressure Clinic (May 29, 9–10 AM) — and rolls right into empowerment with a Public Safety Seminar (9 AM–2 PM) that’s more fascinating than you’d expect. Scam alerts, fire safety, and how to be your own advocate — it’s all there.

Prefer something cozier? Ryders Cove Respite (9:30 AM–2:30 PM) invites you to exhale. Then step out for a breath of fresh air — Nordic Walking (10:45 AM) is equal parts graceful and grounding. Later, chat with the Community Services Clinician (12–4 PM) or wind down with Busy Fingers (1–3 PM) — think quiet stitching, kind smiles, and soft conversation. Cap it off with Chair Yoga (1 PM) at the Community Center, where the poses are gentle and the mood is golden.

Tuesday, June 3, Ryders Cove opens its doors again — always warm, always welcome.

☕ Harwich COA – 100 Oak St | ☎️ 508-430-7550

Harwich is serving quiet strength and creative sparks this week. It’s all about balance — literally and figuratively. Start with Chair Yoga (Mon & Thurs, 10 AM) or Strength Training (Fri, 9:15 AM) if you’re craving movement that doesn’t push too hard but makes you feel mighty. Add Balance Boosters (Fri, 11 AM) for that confident spring in your step.

Feeling social? Pop into Mahjong (Thurs 12:30 PM) or the Open Art Studio (Mon & Thurs, 1 PM) — bring your paints, your pencils, or just your curiosity. For a laid-back Friday, Bridge (1 PM) is always a sure bet.

But if the week gets heavy, take a breath with the Aging Together Support Group (Tues, 10 AM) — a warm circle for meaningful chats about life, aging, and everything in between.

And don’t forget the music: Zumba Gold (Thurs & Tues, 4 PM) brings rhythm and energy to the late afternoon. Even if you don't dance, your spirit just might.

🦅 Orleans COA – 150 Rock Harbor Rd | ☎️ 508-255-6333

There’s a quiet elegance to Orleans this week — routines polished over time and the kind of community that remembers your name. Friday, May 31, begins with Tai Chi (8:30 AM) — a moving meditation that steadies the breath and mind. Follow it with Strength Training (10 AM) for functional movement with friendly faces. 1-on-1 Tech Help (12:30 PM) is also on deck — bring that phone, iPad, or mystery remote and leave with clarity.

Chair Yoga rolls through on Monday and Thursday at 9 AM, and there’s Duplicate Bridge (Thurs 12:30 PM) for those who think best with cards in hand. Prefer painting? Tuesday’s Art Workshop (1 PM) is casual, welcoming, and better than therapy.

Looking ahead to Tuesday, June 4, there’s a triple treat: Balance Class (9 AM), a delightful Cooking for One demo (11 AM) to beat the solo-dining blues, and that Art Workshop (1 PM) to bring it all together with color and calm.
