Hello Friends,

I'd like to share a few articles with you that have come our way. Some are from our Team and some come to others. If you come across an interesting article you'd like to share let us know.

During this very hectic, worry some and stressful time we wish you all good health and happy moments. Look for the silver linings - like how the air in our atmosphere over certain countries is clearer and the waterways in Venice cleaner - it does pay to slow down a bit!!!

Be safe and be well!!!
The team at The Mass Oyster Project

I'd like to give a shout out and thank you to the Cape Cod Squadron for a wonderful and informative luncheon on Thursday Feb 27 at the Lanyard Bar and Grill in Harwich Port. It was a pleasure meeting Alex Bizunok, Commander, Valentina Bizunok, Secretary and the rest of the members. 

A presentation was given by Andrew Jay and Theresa Baybutt of our Mass Oyster Project team on who we are and what we do. A lively conversation took place with lots of great questions.

The Cape Cod Sail and Power Squadron is a recreational boating club on Cape Cod.  They are part of  the United States Power Squadrons. Their 150+ members are sailors, power boaters and paddlers who enjoy being on the legendary waters surrounding Cape Cod. Founded in 1941, the Squadron has been a part of the Cape’s nautical tradition for over seven decades. They provide boating courses and seminars and vessel checks. See their link below.

Thank you again for having us speak to your group and enlarge our network!
