President’sCorner

As we enter September the frenzied activity of summer begins to wane and we no longer need to make advance plans for trips to the grocery store. Although we depend on a robust sum-mer season to help drive the economy of our town while many of our busi-nesses and organizations spend their energy from Memorial Day to Labor Day accommodating visitors, it is now time for us to fully turn our attention back to the specifi c issues that affect the day to day operation of our town. As with any other independent New England community, Falmouth is home to citizens who have strong opinions and each year there are generally several issues that arise which we must all consider. Whether these issues are vetted and admitted to the Warrant for Town Meeting representatives to decide or come before the entire population for a vote at the ballot, there will always be differences of opinions and we must all be careful to hear each others’ points of view. As a Town Meeting member, I carefully read the warrant, attend my precinct meetings and reach out to anyone who has more knowledge than me to better understand the issues. I go to Town Meeting prepared to vote a certain way, but I can honestly say that my mind is frequently changed once I listen with an open mind and digest what people who present opposing ideas have to say. The same holds true for any other issues that affect our community that I do not have a direct say in deciding. I have found it best to practice restraint from forming an opinion until I have taken the time to listen to both sides of any issue and in the end I believe this benefi ts my fel-low citizens as well. As we put the summer behind us and head back to our regular routines, let us take the time to inform ourselves of all points of view and always consider what is best for our town before deciding on any issue. There will always be hot topics and issues to challenge us and this autumn will be no different, but we can better come to a consensus when we take the time to listen to each other and put Falmouth fi rst.

Kind regards,Michael

Michael Kasparian, President

The Falmouth Chamber of Com-merce extends a hearty thank-you to the Falmouth Garden Club for planting and helping to maintain the lovely fl ower boxes that grace our front porch. Visit falmouthgardenclub.org for more infor-mation.

When Paul Clerici was doing re-search for his just-published book, “A History of the Falmouth Road Race: Running Cape Cod,” he heard it over and over.

“I talked to over 100 people, from elite athletes to volunteers to back-of-the-pack runners to [astronaut] Sunita Williams, and everyone had something great to say about the town, the restaurants, the people, the host families in addition to race,” said Clerici, who grew up spending summers in Falmouth. “That was a constant, and a testament to the town.”

So, too, were compliments from two elite athletes who drew support from the throngs of spectators lining the iconic 7-mile course for the 2015 New Balance Falmouth Road Race on hot summer morning that was perfect for watching but a challenge for athletes focused on running fast.

Both the women’s winner, Diane Nukuri of Burundi, and runner-up Sara Hall, the top American, praised the Falmouth fans in their post-race media interviews, Nukuri saying that the cheering propelled her to victory and Hall saying, “The crowd was in-credible out there, and that helped a lot. They were so encouraging.”

It is safe to say that the 12,800 runners behind them would agree, not just about the friendly, helpful fans and volunteers on race day, but about the entire event, from Karen Rinaldo’s fi rst pencil sketch of the offi cial race poster to the last Poland

Looking Back At Road Race Weekendhistory. Meb, Rinaldi, and Clerici allproved popular as they signed auto-graphs at the Chamber of Commercebooth at the expo;

• The Tommy Cochary HighSchool Mile on Saturday evening,won by Aidan Gilson of Florence,MA, and Amy Piccolo of Walpole,MA, along with the Falmouth YouthMile won by Alex Fratantoni andGrace Connolly;

• The emotional raising of the gi-ant 60-foot-by-30-foot fl ag at the fi n-ish line as Jessie Edgar of FalmouthHigh School sang the National An-them at the start in Woods Hole;

• The hard work, both beforeand during the race, by all of theNumbers for Nonprofi ts runners,who are expected to once again raisemore than $3 million for 100 differ-ent Cape-based charities; and

• The winners: Stephen Sambuof Kenya, who lives and trains inTucson, AZ, who became the fi rstman to defend his title since GilbertOkari won his third straight in 2006;Nukuri, a fi rst-time winner who livesin Flagstaff, AZ, who was competinghere for the fi fth time; James Senbetaof Champaign, IL, who defended hiswheelchair title; and Tatyana Mc-Fadden of Clarksville, MD, who notonly defended her wheelchair titlebut smashed the course record sheset last year.

It was Sam Chelenga who summedit up best. Falmouth marked theChelanga’s fi rst race as an American,after being sworn in as a U.S. citizenless than 48 hours earlier. “This is theplace to celebrate for me,” he said.

Tens of thousands of runners,spectators, volunteers, host families,and residents would agree.

“The Falmouth Chorale is a member of the Falmouth Cham-ber of Commerce. As a newly elected co-president of the Cho-rale, I attended the Chamber’s July Business After Hours. The BAH is a monthly networking event that brings the business community together in a casual format to meet and get better ac-quainted with each other. Atria Senior Living was the generous host and its outstanding facility on Gifford Street was the site for the event. The Falmouth Rotary was the featured non-profi t—what a great organiza-tion. I met and made some great new contacts, future and present fans and supporters of the Chorale, and had a wonder-ful time. What a great benefi t of membership! Thanks to the Chamber for this fun and help-ful networking opportunity!”

Chamber President To Offer Antique

AppraisalsAtria Woodbriar Place is spon-

soring the second annual An-tique Appraisals day to benefi t the Friends of Falmouth Dogs’ medical fund. Michael Kaspar-ian, president of the Falmouth Chamber of Commerce, will serve as the appraiser. All ap-praisals given are estimates only.

The event is planned for Sunday, September 20, from noon to 2 PM at Atria Wood-briar Place, 339-389 Gifford Street, Falmouth. Cost is $10 per item and three items for $25. There is a limit of three items per person. No stamps,

coins or jewelry will be appraised.Refreshments will be served and complimentary tours of Atria

will be offered.Friends of Falmouth Dogs,

established in 1990, is an all-volunteer, non-profi t 501(c)(3) organization whose mission is to provide for the welfare of dogs, including their physical, social and behavioral well-be-ing leading to adoption or long-term foster care. They can be reached at 508-548-7742

Cape Cod Volunteers joins Cape and Islands United Way

The Cape and Islands United Way has announced that Cape Cod Volunteers is now part of their organization. The mission of Cape Cod Volunteers, to match people with meaningful vol-unteer opportunities, will be incorporated into the work of the region’s fundraising leader in support of an array of community

programs.The new partnership will make both

organizations more effective and effi -cient in meeting the needs of Cape and Islands communities who rely on vol-unteers to provide vital services – from

alleviating hunger and homelessness to combating substance abuse and domestic violence.

“It makes perfect sense for us to bring Cape Cod Volunteers under our umbrella. Volunteerism has been the heart and soul of the United Way for decades,” said Cape and Islands United Way CEO Barbara Milligan, adding that the Cape and Islands United Way was part of the original advisory council that gave birth to Cape Cod Volunteers. With its network of more than two hun-dred nonprofi t organizations and hundreds of volunteers, adding Cape Cod Volunteers to the fold fi ts perfectly with the bold new vision of the Cape and Islands United Way.

“We are moving from a Community Investment model of passive funding to a Community Impact model,” Milligan said. “This will translate into much more than just monetary support for local nonprofi ts – it also means galvanizing people, and advo-cating for long term solutions to some of our areas most pressing problems. Our goals for the future are ambitious — the addition of Cape Cod Volunteers will have an exponential impact on our ability to meet those goals and support our local communities.”

Cape Symphony And Conservatory

Names New President & CEOThe Cape Symphony & Conservatory is

pleased to announce the appointment of a new President & CEO for the joint organi-zation. Roland Valliere of Memphis, Ten-nessee will formally take his post on No-vember 9, 2015.

“The Search Committee engaged in a na-tional search to fi ll the position left open af-ter the departure of Jerome Karter in June. We believe that Roland’s extensive experi-ence in strategic planning, fi nancial management, major fund-raising and community relations will be key in taking our already vibrant organization to even new heights. We are confi dent he is the right person, for the right job, at the right time and can’t wait to introduce him to the community,” said Liz McNichols, chair of the Cape Symphony & Conservatory Board of Trustees.

“I couldn’t be more thrilled about this opportunity, which really is a dream come true. My career has been devoted to leading organiza-tions to their next level of accomplishment. On the Cape, I think the sky is the limit and I’m looking forward to working with all the stakeholders to make our collective dreams a reality,” said Valliere

Valliere has described this move as “career defi ning,” and Ar-tistic Director & Conductor Jung-Ho Pak predicts this hire will indeed be a pivotal moment for the future of the Cape Symphony & Conservatory as well.

“Roland’s appointment is the next important step in our jour-ney to be one of the most infl uential arts organizations in the world. We both have an artist’s heart and an entrepreneurial spirit. In addition, we both envision our organization to be at the forefront of the technological revolution, creating a concert hall and customer experience that is the most interactive, and the most beloved, in our industry.”

Caring For The CapeCARE for the Cape and Islands Founder, Jill Talladay, was

personally trained by the former US Vice President Al Gore and The Climate Reality Project to serve as a volunteer Cli-mate Reality Leader for the Climate Reality Leadership Corps.The training was a multi-day event and focused on providing a select group of trainees with a deep understanding of the latest science of climate change, best practices in public speaking, social media, leadership skills, communication strategies, com-munity outreach, and organizing. She was joined by (above Left to right) fellow Yarmouth residents Lisa Coedy and Justin In-gold (Surfcomber) and Falmouth resident, Rose Tenaglia Dunn (Lyceum Live).

Jill is looking forward to sharing what she learned with local groups and businesses through an informative talk and visual pre-sentation. To learn more and schedule a presentation contact Jill. Visit careforthecapeandislands.org for more information.

CCCC Partners With UM-B For RN To BSN Program

The working environment for today’s Reg-istered Nurse is becoming more and more complex as they deal with increasingly more sophisticated technology and highly complex treatment plans for hospitalized patients and those undergoing rehabilitation, and resid-ing in long-term care facilities. Many health-care providers are seeking to hire the Nurse who has earned the Bachelor’s Degree, and UMass-Boston (UM-B) has partnered with Cape Cod Community College to offer access to their “RN to BSN” program on the Cape Cod Community College Campus.

UMass-Boston shapes its program for the day-to-day working Nurse, offering strong individual support and advising from ad-mission through graduation. The program takes place right at the Cape Cod Community College campus, no long commute to Boston. This RN to BSN pathway offers generous transfer and equivalency credits for prior professional nursing study and skills, and the lack of a commute is a major benefi t. At the same time, the program is built around the work schedules of today’s healthcare environment. The program’s courses include both “face to face” instruction as well as computer-assisted courses (so called “hybrid” courses) on the West Barnstable campus.

Contact Cheryl Brennan at 508-362-2131 x 4850, or by email: [email protected]; or Dot Montini at 508-362-2131 x 4344, [email protected] for more information.

The Falmouth Station Advisory Sub-committee held their initial meeting since being appointed by the Falmouth Eco-nomic Development Industrial Corpora-tion to discuss how best to move forward with the plan to renovate and repurpose the crumbling former Falmouth Train Station. The station has been used as a bus depot for years and will continue in that capacity; however the committee will explore other uses for the building which will help transform it into a des-tination for residents and visitors alike. The grounds have the potential for pro-

viding a relaxing park-like environment, especially since the Shining Sea Bike Path runs adjacent to the back of the building and the former boarding area along the entire length of the station. The Town of Falmouth not only secured a 99 year lease of the building, but was also award-ed 1.4 million dollars for the purpose of renovating the structure. Once a fi nal plan for the building and surrounding property has been established, the com-mittee will explore whether additional funds will be necessary and if so how best to raise them.

Falmouth Yacht Club Hosting Sonars

The 2015 Sonar Class World Champion-ship Regatta is coming to Falmouth Yacht Club September 16th through 20th.

Particularly attractive to skippers is the short sail to the starting line from Falmouth Harbor, which depending on the wind and

current could be west of the harbor jetty, or east, making Surf Drive Beach and Falmouth Heights Beach excellent viewing ven-ues. September weather is usually quite spectacular. Post race events are also scheduled, including a New England Clambake, catered by Chamber member, Shuckers-Woods Hole. Visit fal-mouthyachtclub.com for more information.

From The Desk Of Chief DunneOver the years, the Falmouth po-

lice department would start plan-ning for the Falmouth Road Raceevent a few short months prior toevent day. A few “let’s go over thedetails” meetings were held priorto the event with police represen-tatives and road race officials. Thedepartment would assign personnelto locations along the race route forthe sole purpose of blocking trafficin those areas.

Today, the race is a collaborativeevent involving several public safe-ty agencies that starts the planningprocess during the winter months.This collaboration involves meet-ings and input from Road Race of-ficials, Falmouth Police Depart-ment, Falmouth Fire Department,Falmouth Marine and Environmen-tal Services, U.S. Coast Guard, MassState Police, Massachusetts StateFire Marshalls Office, BarnstableCounty Sheriff ’s Dept. and others.The plan utilizes a Unified Com-mand System that is designed toimprove and streamline communi-cation between partnering agenciesduring the event.

The safety and security assetscommitted to this event has in-creased significantly in recent years.These assets include equipmentsuch as helicopters, surveillanceequipment (Mobile surveillancecamera donated by the FalmouthRoad Race) and traffic and crowdcontrol equipment.

From a police perspective theevent has grown from being primar-ily a traffic control event to an eventinvolving contingency planning formass casualty and terrorism. It isnow necessary to put procedures inplace that deal with bag searches,explosive device searches as well asrestricting air space for aircraft anddrones.

This year’s race was a huge suc-cess. Although the heat and hu-midity put a strain on medical per-sonnel the event went according toplan. The Falmouth Fire Depart-ment attended to 108 runners whowere treated by medical personnelfor mostly heat related injuries.

It won’t be long before we beginplanning for the 44th running of theFalmouth Road Race on August 21,2016. A nod to the organizers andtheir volunteers: Everybody didtheir job and did it right.

Carlos Arredondo with Business Development Offi cer Teri Keyes, and Ann Messer, Branch Supervisor from The Cooperative Bank of Cape Cod North Falmouth and Falmouth Branches. Carlos, one of bystanders who saved lives after the Boston Marathon bombing, was a guest of the bank, at the Falmouth Road Race Expo, invited to meet and greet runners. “We really enjoy being part of this event as the offi cial bank sponsor. It’s popularity continues to grow and while there were 12,800 runners the race committee suc-cessfully maintained the small-town feel of this wonderful event. The money raised goes right back to Cape Codders through so many terrifi c community organizations, and The Coop is proud to be a part of it.” Joel Crowell, President, The Cooperative Bank of Cape Cod
