Dave Myers
We were shocked and saddened to learn of the passing of Dave Myers, former Executive Director of WOMR. Dave died unexpectedly on June 19 at the age of 46. Dave led the organization from 2006 to 2009 and brought tremendous creativity and enthusiasm to the job. Prior to working at WOMR, Dave was the operations and development director at KMUD, a community radio station in northern California. Subsequent to his work with us, Dave was production director, marketing consultant and on-air personality at Cape Cod Broadcasting. In addition to his work on the radio, many people in the community knew Dave as an active member of the vibrant Cape Cod music scene. Many from that scene gathered to remember Dave at O'Shea's Olde Inne in West Dennis on June 27. Dave will always be remembered for his work with a myriad of local groups, including the Truro Agricultural Fair, the Wellfleet Recreation Department, Nauset Regional Middle School, and The Wellfleet Methodist Church, among others. His easy smile and generous spirit will never be forgotten. He is survived by his son, Sam, and his daughter, Rose, among others. May all find peace in difficult times.

Interesting Times
Some say that it's a curse to live in interesting times. The current political environment may provide some evidence for the claim. Democracy Now! has been trying to take the sting out of that curse for the last 20 years, as Amy Goodman and her team provide an important counter point to the mainstream media. Amy Goodman and Denis Moynihan will be in Provincetown one day after the close of the Democratic National Convention in Philadelphia, and will no doubt provide a complete breakdown of what may be contentious proceedings.
