SUMMARY:History on Tap: Female Lighthouse Keepers of Cape Cod
DESCRIPTION:“Cape Cod is a destination for visitors drawn to our iconic lighthouses. Many imagine the romantic life of a lighthouse keeper — watching the sea\, guiding ships\, and living on the edge of the coast. But in the 19th and early 20th century United States\, this profession was almost entirely closed to women. \nFor most\, the only path to becoming a keeper came through loss — stepping into the role after the death of a father or husband. Here on Cape Cod\, five remarkable women did exactly that. They took on the responsibility of tending the light\, maintaining the stations\, and safeguarding mariners\, earning admiration and respect for their dedication\, resilience\, and skill. \nSam Notick\, Collections and Exhibits Manager at the Cape Cod Maritime Museum\, will share the stories of these trailblazing women who kept the lights shining on Cape Cod. \nPart of our History on Tap series—join us for an evening of local history\, conversation\, and craft brews. \nAdmission: $10 per person / $5 for members \nMust be 21+ to sample beer; IDs will be checked at the door. \nEnjoy craft beer from our sponsor\, Cape Cod Beer\, along with cheese\, crackers\, water\, and non-alcoholic beer options. \nWe highly recommend reserving your tickets on our website in advance.

SUMMARY:History on Tap: Prohibition on Cape Cod - Running the Rum in
DESCRIPTION:“During Prohibition\, rumrunning was big business on Cape Cod. Fishermen and farmers headed offshore under cover of darkness to “Rum Row\,” returning with contraband alcohol while risking heavy fines\, jail time\, and dangerous encounters with law enforcement\, hijackers\, and gangsters. From Provincetown’s Manny Zora to Eastham’s Bud Cummings\, and the mysterious disappearance of Sandwich’s Eugene Haines\, these stories range from thrilling to humorous. Even Boston Mayor James Curley is said to have escaped out a window during a police raid at Yarmouth’s Casa Madrid. \nLocal author Don Wilding brings this unforgettable era to life\, uncovering tales of crime\, controversy\, and coastal ingenuity from Cape Cod’s Prohibition years. \nAbout the Speaker:\nDon Wilding has spent decades sharing stories of Cape Cod’s Outer Beach through lectures\, video\, and the written word. In addition to Prohibition on Cape Cod: Running the Rum In\, he is the author of Historic Storms of Cape Cod\, Cape Cod and the Portland Gale of 1898\, Shipwrecks of Cape Cod: Stories of Triumph & Tragedy\, A Brief History of Eastham\, and Henry Beston’s Cape Cod. \nAn award-winning newspaper editor\, writer\, and designer for over thirty-six years\, Don is also a Cape tour guide and frequent speaker on regional history across New England. He has led history walks for the Harwich Conservation Trust—earning recognition as a 2023 “Conservationist of the Year”—and taught Cape Cod history courses for Open University of Wellfleet and Nauset Community Education. Don lives in South Dennis with his wife\, Nita. \nPart of our History on Tap series—join us for an evening of local history\, conversation\, and craft brews. \nAdmission: $10 per person / $5 for members \nMust be 21+ to sample beer; IDs will be checked at the door. \nEnjoy craft beer from our sponsor\, Cape Cod Beer\, along with cheese\, crackers\, water\, and non-alcoholic beer options. \nWe highly recommend reserving your tickets on our website in advance.

SUMMARY:History on Tap: Biodiversity on Shipwrecks
DESCRIPTION:“Take an underwater journey to explore how shipwrecks and submerged aircraft are shaping marine ecosystems. Marine biologist Dr. Kirstin Meyer-Kaiser will share her research on Underwater Cultural Heritage Sites\, including the Stellwagen Bank National Marine Sanctuary off the coast of Boston\, where historic wrecks have become thriving habitats for ocean life. With an estimated three million shipwrecks worldwide\, these sites serve not only as memorials to lives lost\, but also as unique environments for microbes\, corals\, anemones\, and fish. Dr. Meyer-Kaiser will discuss how different metals in wreckage influence marine biodiversity and how scientists are collaborating with commercial fishing communities to help preserve these important cultural and ecological resources. \nPart of our History on Tap series—join us for an evening of local history\, conversation\, and craft brews. \nAdmission: $10 per person / $5 for members \nMust be 21+ to sample beer; IDs will be checked at the door. \nEnjoy craft beer from our sponsor\, Cape Cod Beer\, along with cheese\, crackers\, water\, and non-alcoholic beer options. \nWe highly recommend reserving your tickets on our website in advance.

SUMMARY:AUTHOR TALK: Anthony Sammarco "Inferno: Exploring the Great Boston Fire "
DESCRIPTION:Saturday November 7\, 2026\n1:00pm\,  Main Meeting Room\,   Osterville Village Library. \nJoin the Osterville Village Library in welcoming local author Anthony Sammarco as he gives a thrilling talk on Boston history! \nIn this program he discusses ‘The Great Boston Fire’\, a devastating fire that destroyed sixty-five acres of land in Boston\, from Washington Street\, between Summer Street and Milk Street\, fanning eastward towards the wharves projecting into Boston Harbor. The fire was said to have destroyed 776 buildings in Boston’s downtown\, causing over $73 million in damage (or $1\,682\,000\,000 in 2022 dollars)\, killing an estimated twenty people\, and leading to stricter building regulations in Boston. Fires have always been a constant source of anxiety\, but this inferno was cataclysmic and beyond the comprehension of many people. The city of Boston took action and appointed a city architect that would oversee all building in the city. \nAnthony Sammarco’s talks are always wildly popular and this one promises to be just that! For more information or to register for this program\, please contact Amy Wolfe at awolfe@clamsnet.org\nor by calling the OVL directly at (508)428-5757.
