1 NEWSLETTER September Mail Edition P.O. Box South Dennis, MA NEXT MEETING September 8, 2016 Meetings are the second Thursday of each month (except during December, July & August) at the Dennis Senior Center, 1045 Rt. 134, E. Dennis at 1:30 PM. PRESIDENT S MESSAGE Well the summer is slowly winding down and before you know it our bowling season starts up and our fall golf season as well. The last event we had from all the information I received was a smashing success. Thanks to the team Charlie, Jack and Ernie for their efforts. Next up is our new Fall Cape Cod Clambake at the Swan River restaurant overlooking Swan River. Also returning for the second time, Ms. Julie Charland will sing and get the fall season off to a great start at our event as well. Let s make this a great event and start a new tradition. As Labor Day fast approaches, we can slowly see the traffic start to wind down as most of the college students are off and the last of the summer crowd starts to make their way back home. To me, the best time of year on the Cape is the fall season. We slowly see the climate

2 change and the sun starts to set a little earlier every day. The weather is actually better as the cooler temps makes the bike paths and golf courses easier to ride or walk. Beaches are wide open for casual strolls where just a few weeks ago the lots were full at 9 in the morning. So gentlemen, we will see you all on September 8 th at the senior center to start the Fall season. Hope you all have had a great summer! Did you know that the first college recorded football game was on November 6, 1869 between Rutgers and Princeton it mostly resembled rugby, soccer and mayhem? Rules were by home field with no pads, helmets and combatants went home bloodied or dead. Let s bring back old fashion football aye????? George Cappola September Program Buffalo Bob & his musical group will be performing at our September meeting. We have requested and he has graciously agreed to update the presentation and give our members a different medley of songs. It s always a great program!
