SUMMARY:Tuesdays - Depot Ave Walking Tour
DESCRIPTION:Historical Walking Tours of the 2025 season \nThe “Depot Ave Walking Tour” on Tuesdays\, at 10:30am\, leaving from the Hallett Barn Visitors Center (please arrive 15 minutes ahead of time). \nFalmouth’s maritime past is proudly remembered\, but there’s more to the history of our town.  When the railroad arrived in 1871\, Falmouth’s link to the world shifted from the sea to the rails.  Trains brought visitors and freight to town multiple times daily.  A bustling commercial zone arose\, centered around the hub of the train station on Depot Ave.  Join us as we explore this aspect of Falmouth’s industrial past and how it led to discussions over zoning and development that we live with today.  Along the way\, you’ll also see lovely examples of late 19th and early 20th century homes built by Cape Codders who gave up seafaring and prospered in professions like insurance\, hospitality\, and retail. \nView our Historical Walking Tour page for more information.

SUMMARY:Historian Talk: Military Aircraft Wrecks\, Cape Cod
DESCRIPTION:A New England Air Express passenger craft which crashed in the Bahamas\, October\, 1948.\n  \nHistorian Talk: Military Aircraft Wrecks\, Cape Cod\nTuesday\, June 25th\, 2024\, at 4pm \nOVERVIEW \nDid you realize that in New England there are so many aircraft wrecks\, both military and civilian\, that on average there is one every 35 miles of land? That is because historians like Jim Ignasher of New England Aviation History and Larry Webster in Rhode Island have identified close to 2\,000 air accidents\, from losing a wheel to total destruction or missing in the oceans. In Massachusetts there are at least 375 military and 301 civilian airplane mishaps\, with over 150 occurring on Cape Cod or surrounding seas and islands. Falmouth alone has five\, Mashpee 2 (one of them recently found by the speaker)\, and over 40 in Otis Air Force Base or Camp Edwards. This talk will focus on trying to find evidence of the many air wrecks in and near Falmouth\, and the need to learn\, preserve and share the back-stories of the men and women who fell to earth while flying to keep us safe. Last year Eric spent many months finding a dozen and documenting nearly 200 other WWII aircraft in Bahamas. Now he shares his focus on women pilots\, Cold War warriors\, and lone fighter pilots who ditched in the cold Atlantic\, or into ponds and marshes and road near us. \n$20 Non-Member/$10 Members\, or donation based ticket. Light Refreshments Served. \nBIOGRAPHY \nBased in East Boston\, Eric Wiberg moved to New England at age 13 in the 1980s to attend boarding schools in Massachusetts and Rhode Island\, then Boston College. He is from Bahamas\, with US and Swedish passports\, and have lived in Asia\, Europe\, the US\, South Pacific and Caribbean in the course of working on over 150 yachts and traveling a million miles. Following degrees or certificates in law\, marine policy and film\, Eric has completed over 45 books\, published 18 and 1\,000 articles\, and has given nearly 100 presentations internationally and on film & TV. His main focus is discovering and describing maritime mishap and airplane wrecks. The father of a teen son\, he is a tutor who returns to Mashpee to see loved ones and has written at Cuttyhunk. \nRegister Here
