SUMMARY:The Bells of Falmouth
DESCRIPTION:Our meeting in November will feature a talk by Mr. Kenneth Peal\, a retired engineer\, who has been exploring bells in Falmouth for many years. He will tell us about some of Falmouth’s bells and the gems of history that they bring. They include church bells\, school bells\, fire bells and even a bell that was saved from a WHOI research ship before it went to the scrap yard. He will introduce us to how bells work\, how they are made and the many ways they can be rung. He will describe some newly discovered bells in town\, historic bells he found that were previously not recorded by people who keep track of such things\, a couple of mysteries and even a bell controversy. The talk will end in a nod to the season with a Christmas bell story. \n$20 Non-members/$10Members. Includes appetizers and wine. Limited capacity\, please register online. \nMr. Peal was born and educated in Canada and emigrated with his young family to Falmouth in 1971 to take a job as an electrical engineer at the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution. During many years at WHOI\, his work changed from the early days of learning how to use room-sized computers at sea to designing and deploying underwater instruments that often have several computers inside a small pressure case. His travels to test and deploy these instruments took him on ships to most of the world’s oceans and to the high artic where he lived in ice camps for several weeks at a time. \nNow retired\, he volunteers around town and actively follows his interest in things historic and environmental. One of his hobbies is “fixing things that were never meant to be fixed” to fight against the throwaway society. \nHe lives with his wife\, Michele\, in a 160-year old house in West Falmouth which he happily opens to his children and grandchildren especially during the summer. \nRegister Here\n\n

SUMMARY:Washburn at War
DESCRIPTION:WASHBURN AT WAR:\nSaturday\, November 11 at 2pm\n$20 Non Member/$10 Members\, please pre-register as space is limited\n\nThe lecture will appeal to anyone interested in the goings on during World War Two on the Cape. We cover the big stories\, visits to Washburn by Gen. Patton and Heavy Weight\, Champ Joe Louis. There are small stories\, like kids combing the shoreline for discarded Army foil packets of instant coffee\, which their mothers craved because of rationing and lonely soldiers being ordered to release chipmunks they had captured and tried to make pets out of! Join us and you will learn something guaranteed! The lecture is a joint fundraiser for the Falmouth Museum on the Green and the Cape Cod Military Museum.\n\n\nJoe Yukna Bio: \nMy interest in the Military history of the Cape started when I worked as a Department of Defense Police Officer on Camp Edwards/Otis ANGB in the late 1980’s. Driving around the base and seeing all the abandoned buildings made me wonder what went on here. I put out a call to get a museum going on Cape Cod.  Jerry Ellis answered that call. We had secured two barracks and six surrounding acres on Camp Edwards then an open base. September 11th ended that phase of the Military Museum.  After a hiatus we have been working on getting a venue to tell our amazing story. We have been collecting artifacts\, and information on military activities here on the Cape and the overseas activities of units that trained here. We have helped out various historical societies with military displays. We offer a series of photo lectures to educate the public and promote the museum. After leaving the D.O.D. Police force\, I started my own dog training business and am better known as Joe the Dogman. I am the son of a WWII /Korean War Navy Veteran and the Father of an Army War on Terror Veteran. \nRegister Here
