Race For Radio
As unlikely as it might seem (have you seen us?), the Lower Cape Sprint Triathlon has become one of the major fundraisers on our events calendar. Our new race director Kathleen Walker is looking to take the event to the next level this year by expanding the appeal of the race beyond our current friends and family. Join us on Saturday June 20 at Long Pond in Wellfleet for the event which features a 3 mile run, a 1/4 mile swim and a 10 mile bike ride through some of the most beautiful scenery in the world. The race beings at 7am with registration open at 5:30. You can pre-register online and get more information at lowercapetriathlon.org. Thanks to the sponsors of the event: Bubala's, Cahoon Hollow Massage, Bookstore Restaurant, Roderick's Payroll, Seamen's Bank, Sperry Chiropractic, and the Wellfleet Chamber of Commerce, I Can Dig It.

Film-tastic
For many years, WOMR has been proud to sponsor the Provincetown International Film Festival. This year, we're not only sponsoring the event, but we're the star of one of the films. Alan Chebot and the crew at Parallax Productions made a feature film that sheds new light on several of the characters that make up the menagerie here at the Schoolhouse. It was a labor of love that started with Lady Di and included the nearly tragic collapse of our tower on Mt. Gilboa. We had a blast at the first showing of the film at Wellfleet Harbor Actors Theater back in April, and now we get to strut our stuff again in June. The Festival is showing the film with a reception on Thursday June 18 at Wellfleet Preservation Hall. The film will also be screened in the grand setting of Provincetown Town Hall on Sunday June 21. Festival passes and individual tickets are on sale now.

Dig The Daggers
People have suggested that we ought to throw more parties. You don't have to ask us twice, so we're putting together a casual gathering outdoors at the Eastham Elks Club Pavilion on Sunday June 28 from 3 to 6pm. The Daggers were the break-out hit of last year's CranJam in Harwich, and the Elk's Club served as fine hosts of the WOMR birthday party the last couple of years, so this should prove to be two great tastes that join together to form a flavor of epic proportions. Pretty much everything the Daggers do is larger than life, so we're not going too far out on the limb here. We're even gonna make sure that there's a few munchies in the house to help soak up some of the good time that will be had. We're not sure if it'll be burgers or pizza, but we're pretty sure that it won't involve anything too exotic, so don't expect any emu fricassee.
