White Sharks Return To
Local Waters
CHATHAM — Like the warmer weather and the
traffic on Route 28, great white sharks are officially
back for the season. On Sunday, the head lifeguard
at Nauset Beach in Orleans spotted a dorsal fin about
150 feet from shore near the swimming area, providing
the first real-world test of a new alert system that
notifies beach managers up and down the Outer Cape
coast.

Crowell And Dunbar, Local Treasurers
Two important figures of the past who
called Chatham and Harwich home will be the subjects of
major museum exhibits this summer. The life and work of
A. Elmer Crowell, who lived in East Harwich and became
the world's premier decoy carver, will be chronicled in
a Harwich Historical Society exhibit at Brooks Academy
Museum beginning this coming weekend. And the Chatham
Historical Society's special exhibit this summer at the
Atwood House Museum shines the spotlight on master naval
architect F. Spaulding Dunbar in “Wood, Wind and Water:
The Genius of F. Spaulding Dunbar,” also opening this
weekend.
