 Massachusetts Growth Capital Corporation is pleased to announce the request for proposals for participation in
                              the Fiscal Year 2021 (July 2020 - June 2021) progr

The Small Business Technical Assistance Grant Program expands economic and entrepreneurial opportunity throughout
the Commonwealth. The program is designed to complement and enhance traditional public and private small business
assistance networks by providing technical assistance and training programs for underserved and/or disadvantaged
businesses with 20 employees or less. It seeks to facilitate small business economic viability and improve their ability to
secure capital.

This state-funded program is managed by MGCC. The grants are awarded to community development corporations
(CDC’s), community development financial institutions (CDFI’s), chambers of commerce and other nonprofit organizations
that currently provide technical assistance and training programs to small businesses and start-ups with an emphasis on
underserved businesses and entrepreneurs. Eligible organizations use the funds to provide crucial services, such as
technical assistance, training in business skills, and access to financing, to their local businesses. These grants are
intended to supplement the organization’s current and anticipated funding and not to be the primary funding support. In
addition, mini-grants are offered through the grantees to small business owners with needs for professional, technical, and
operational services.

                                               FY2021 Program Information

· Funds available for this grant program in FY 2021 will be $4 million. (subject to appropriation)
· Maximum grant amount to programs proposed by a single organization not to exceed $85,000.
·    Maximum grant amount to programs proposed as a collaborative joint proposal (defined as two or more eligible
organizations sharing costs and providing complementary services in coordination with each other) not to exceed
$175,000.
·   Collaborative joint proposals must demonstrate that the organizations propose a cohesive work plan and will work
together to implement and achieve their proposed objectives.
·   Collaborative joint proposals must have one lead organization and one person responsible for the application and
administration of grant monies, as well as all reporting and communication with MGCC.
·   MGCC will endeavor to assure broad geographic diversity among grantees but will not limit the number of grants
awarded per region.

                                                         Schedule

                                 Small Business Relief Survey
The CDP is partnering with Massachusetts Growth Capital Corporation and other state, regional, and local
leaders to form the MA Small Biz COVID Response Coalition.
The MA Small Biz COVID Response Coalition is conducting a Small Business Relief Survey, and we are asking
Provincetown Chamber of Commerce - BLUE SKIES Herring Cove Provincetown 2020 - Provincetown Chamber of Commerce
The MA Small Biz COVID Response Coalition is conducting a Small Business Relief Survey, and we are asking
that you participate. This short survey takes approximately 5 minutes and the responses will assist local, state,
and federal officials making critical decisions for the small business community. Please feel free to share this
email with other small businesses so that we can understand the needs and impacts across the state.

             Click the button below to complete the survey. Thank you for participating.​

                                                     SURVEY

The CDP is Open for Business and we are offering our regular small business assistance remotely using zoom,
telephone, email, skype, and facetime. Please feel free to email me and we can set up a time to talk. Or call me
directly at 508-514-1369
         Do you have questions regarding what options and resources are available now or what steps you should
         take for the future?
         Do you need information on the SBA PPP program or on the Pandemic Unemployment for 1099’s and
         sole proprietors? We can help you understand the right options for you and your situation.

As, we continue to offer small businesses the support they need and want, we need your help to develop
upcoming programming. We have created a short survey to help us develop expertise in new areas, create
workshops and to identify resources for our community to assist in this unprecedented time. Please take 2
minutes to tell us what you need in this Survey Monkey survey.

       Support small business in our region, sign onto a letter to our state legislators.

The CDP along with 72 other small business support organizations recently sent a letter to Governor Baker that
outlined a number of initiatives that need to be funded by the state to help very small businesses across
Massachusetts. The CDP acknowledges that Lower and Outer Cape businesses have many unique challenges
in a normal year let alone during a Pandemic and need additional support. We have crafted a letter to our state
elected officials to request additional resources for small businesses. Please Read the letter. If you would like to
have your name and businesses name included, please provide the following information to Jason at the CDP:
· name
· position
· business
· address
· contact phone

On a separate note, many of you may have heard that small business owners who also have a job where they
get a W2 for over $5100 a year, can not apply for the Pandemic Unemployment Insurance. We have many small
businesses here that can not support themselves on what they make in their small business and have part time
jobs to supplement their income. The CDP has brought this to the attention of our state legislators and they have
received feedback that this is a cap in the Federal Policy and must be changed by the Federal Government. If
you have business owners that have fallen into the crack in the support options please have them contact
Congressman Keating and Senators Warren and Markey.

An email or phone call to the three contacts below would be good. They should also copy Dottie Smith in Rep.

A reminder from the desk of Animal Control Officer Ruthanne Cowing

If you’re going to be in and out of your car running errands, PLEASE leave your dog home!
Provincetown Chamber of Commerce - BLUE SKIES Herring Cove Provincetown 2020 - Provincetown Chamber of Commerce
If you’re going to be in and out of your car running errands, PLEASE leave your dog home!
Believe it or not, leaving the windows parAally open is NOT enough.
Parking in the shade WON’T keep the car cool enough either.
Dogs feel heat differently than humans do. They sweat differently too. Dogs sweat by panAng and
by sweaAng from their paws. However, a dog trapped in a hot car cannot effecAvely rid its body of
enough of the heat by panAng and sweaAng — simply because there’s not enough cool, fresh air
to replace the heated, stale air.
Therefore, a dog breathing in warm/hot air for too long will suffer heatstroke and could die.

If you see this acAvity, please call us immediately BUT know the law!
In Massachusetts, it is law that residents can take swift action when they see a pet
stranded in a hot car. BUT there are protocols that must be followed to protect you from
civil or criminal liability, you must of course: FIRST try to find the owner, SECOND make
a call to authorities, and stay on the scene. After that and if a true emergency beckons, the
law wants you save that pet from an overheated vehicle.
AGAIN you must..
First notify law enforcement or call 911
Determine the vehicle is locked "or there is no other reasonable
means for exit
Have a firm belief that entry into the vehicle "is reasonably necessary”
to prevent imminent danger or harm to the animal. You can’t just break
a window!

                                                 Harbor Health
                              has announced that it will not reopen
                          Harbor Community Dental Center-Provincetown
                                ​with Outer Cape Health Services.

Harbor Health will continue to offer care through OCHS dental locations in Hyannis and Dennis and
work with Outer Cape on transportation or telehealth options for patients.
“Our main priority was – and will continue to be – to partner with OCHS to ensure access to dental
services for people living on the Outer Cape,” said Chuck Jones, president and CEO of Harbor Health.
The majority of Harbor’s dental patients are low-income or uninsured and the organization is one of the
few dental providers on the Cape that accepts MassHealth for adults.
Harbor and OCHS are discussing options for providing transportation to Hyannis and Dennis for dental
patients in need of routine and emergency care. In addition, the CCRTA has a stop at Patriot Square
close to Harbor’s Ellen Jones Community Dental Center. Harbor also plans to continue to offer
telehealth.
“We are committed to helping our friends and neighbors in Provincetown, and will do whatever we can
to make sure everyone in our community can get local, affordable dental care,” continued Jones.
to make sure everyone in our community can get local, affordable dental care,” continued Jones.
Jones added Harbor will look at future opportunities to provide dental care physically in Provincetown.
Dental patients can find additional information about continuing dental care, here.

We hope this letter finds you and our family in good health. Our community has been through a
lot over the last few months, and all of us are looking forward to resuming our normal habits and
routines. While many things have changed, one thing has remained the same: our commitment
to your safety.
Infection control has always been a top priority for our practice and you may have seen this
during your visits. Our infection control processes are made so that when you recieve care its
both safe and comfortable.
Our office follows infection control recommendations made by the American Dental Association
(ADA) the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the Occupational Safety
and Health Administration (OSHA). We follow the activities of these agencies so that we are up
to date on any rulings or guidance that may be issued.
We are hoping to begin seeing patients the week of June 8th, this depends on the
recommendation of the Governor and the Massachusettes Dental Society.
You may see some changes when it is time for your next appointment. We made these changes
to help protect our patients and staff.
       Our office will communicate with you beforehand to ask some screening questions. You'll
       be asked those same questions again when you enter the office. It is important that we
       speak with every patient prior to your visit, please return messages left.
       We have hand sanitizers that we will ask you to use when you enter the building. Please
       wear you mask, we will take your temperature and give you a bag to store your mask in
       until your procedure is complete.
       You will be asked to remain in your car. Please call 508-487-2800 to initiate your
       appointment. Please do not ask anyone to join you for your appointment. The waiting
       room will remain closed.
       Appointments will be managed to allow for social distancing between patients. That might
       mean that you are offered fewer options for scheduling our appointments
We look forward to seeing you again and happy to answer any questions you may have about
the steps we are taking to keep you, and every patient , safe in our practice.
Please be patient in the scheduling process, Michelle will call you to reschedule everyone that
had an appointment during this time. Thank you for being our patient. We value your trust and
loyalty and look forward to welcomng back our patients, neighbors and friends.

Sincerely,

Scott A. Allegretti, DDS

COVID-19 is making for a tough season. Provincetown retailers and restaurants will be counting
on part-time residents to come in and spend. But did you know that recent negative comments
on social media and in the press are keeping part-timers away?
In an April 29th survey, 45% of part-time residents said they feel unwelcome in Provincetown.
The Provincetown Part-Time Resident Taxpayers Association (PPRTA) wants to change that.
PPRTA created our “Community Partners” program expressly to help retailers and restaurants
​by lending you our good reputation with part-time residents to drive your business.

PPRTA will feature your business and links on our website and newsletters, and we ask that you
provide links to PPRTA in your advertising as well. We provide you, free of charge, our 5”x5”
partner window decal to announce our friendship along with a similar PDF for your advertising.
Joining our program is easy and hassle free but we have limited slots.

                                       Seashore Urges Public Cooperation
                                               During COVID-19

Oficials at Cape Cod National Seashore have discovered vandalism and dumping at locations, and have
observed numerous regulations not being followed. Materials and household trash were dumped, Fencing was
vandalized, and increased violations, including pets on trails, in shorebird areas, and off leash; and bicycles, dirt
bikes, and ATVs on trails.
The seashore staff does not have the resources to address these careless acts. We will issue citations to those
who do not follow regulations, and we may be forced to close areas of the seashore if violations continue.

If choosing to come to the seashore, residents and visitors must adhere to the following regulations to avoid a
citation and fines up to $5000.
--Pack out all trash, including food scraps and pet waste.
--Pack out all trash, including food scraps and pet waste.
--Follow pet regulations: Pets must always be leashed. They are never allowed on unpaved trails, and they must
be kept out of posted shorebird protection areas. Clean up after pets.
--Folw bike regulations: Bikes are allowed on paved areas and fire roads only. They are never allowed on
unpaved trails or on beaches.
--Dirt bikes and ATVs are never allowed on trails within the seashore.
--Do not litter and No dumping.

                                      It is illegal to feed wildlife in NaSonal Parks.
               Animals that are fed oVen lose their fear of people, becoming unpredictable and aggressive
          in ahempts to gain food. This can lead to serious injury to people and destrucAon of the wild animal.
                   In addiAon, feeding draws more animals, resulAng in unnaturally high populaAons,
                             compeAAon for human-provided food, and aggressive behavior.

      There is enough natural food to support wildlife in the naAonal seashore; feeding is unnecessary and harmful.

               The public is reminded to remain distant from wild animals; to keep children close and pets
              leashed; and to not feed or leave food out for wildlife. Rangers will conAnue to cite offenders.

  “We understand how important it is for people to have the opportunity to get outdoors to relieve some of the
   stress that COVID-19 is causing,” said Carlstrom. “We urge the public to respect their seashore, follow all
                              guidance and regulations, and act responsibly.”

Blessing Of The Fleet Will Be A Psalm Private Ceremony

With the COV 19 situation, everyone is adjusting to the blessing of the Fleet. This year the final
Festival activity held during the last Sunday in June will be private. The Festival, the Pier
Corporation, Harbormaster, Fishermen and St Peters parish are working together to arrange a
psalm private blessing of the boats.

Masses at St Peters for Sunday June 29th will be scheduled in accordance with regular
Sunday Mass offerings, applying Pandemic guidelines in affect at that time. Chris King and
Susan Avellar, Festival coordinators of the arrangements said this quiet period is a good
opportunity to do something we should do more often: pause, honor the past,
​ remember the boats and crew lost at sea and pray for bountiful, safe voyages for our
 Provincetown Commercial Fleet.

Commemorative Book Published
The commemorative book will be published for distribution, available on the Outer Cape and on line for viewing
and downloading. Visit our website: ProvincetownPortugueseFestival.com to see the latest and more.

T-Shirts Can be Purchased On Line
The Festival T Shirt featuring the painting of the vessel Joan and Tom by Thomas A. J. Watson can be
purchased online at provincetownportuguesefestival.com. Quantities will be limited so we urge everyone to place
their order early. Visit us online at ProvincetownPortugueseFestival.com to order.

Decorations Planned
Decorations of the town with flags along Commercial St. in Lopes Sq. Portuguese Square and MacMillan Pier will
celebrate June, Portuguese Heritage month, and honor the people working to keep our community
safe. Portuguese roosters will appear in their usual places around town.
The Festival Team and volunteers are pleased to be able to offer this downsized version of the Festival and in no
way wants to interfere with local town and other agencies guidelines for getting through these unfortunate times.

Has pushed its shows to next year and in the meanAme has focused on
virtual programming. Click here for VIRTUAL PROGRAMMING
Dear friends,

Creating a safe, nurturing and exciting space to assemble is central to my mission as Artistic Director of the
Provincetown Theater. It anchors the core of my lifelong devotion to live theater. And so, it is with my deepest
gratitude that I thank you for attending and supporting our ongoing efforts in developing a new arena to gather
during these tumultuous times – online. And more innovative virtual programming is to come.

But we must meet the needs of now. Moving forward, in adhering to the Massachusetts government’s new four-
phase guidelines to stem the spread of coronavirus, the board of directors and I made the necessary
decision to reschedule all of our 2020 productions to the 2021 season. Our top priority in moving
through this health crisis has always been – and will continue to be -- the safety of our patrons, our staff, and the
dozens of actors, artists and volunteers involved throughout the season. Our commitment to developing new
virtual programs for you is now our utmost creative goal. As we initiated them in March, all virtual programming
will continue to be streamed on our website (on our Virtual Programming page) via our YouTube channel. So,
please check back often for updates.

Furthermore, all programs will continue to be streamed free-of-charge, though donations are greatly appreciated.
Indeed, it is precisely because of your love, support and donations that we’ve been able to continue developing
these new means of gathering in this anxious and isolating moment.

As always, my most sincere wishes of strength and good health to you and your loved ones.

                        To the Keeper House (KH) and Whistle House (WH) Guests, you are all appreciated for
                        your time spent at RPL taking in the sea and shore. Your stay with us has supported out

                        Lighthouse Foundation (ALF) Lighthouses. It is with deep regret that the RPL BOD and
                        ALF announce that the Cape Cod Chapter of the American Lighthouse Foundation,
                        Race Point Lighthouse Station will not open for the 2020 Season and all events for
                        the RPL 2020 Season are canceled.
                        It is our intention to reopen the Station for the 2021 Season after we have more
information & such. Time will tell.

Post Office Cafe and Cabaret
With concern for everyone's health and safety, the Post Office Cafe & Cabaret will remain closed
this summer season. We will reopen in 2021 to continue the tradition of over four decades.

Stay safe.

The Donut Experiment
To all of our friends, neighbors and fellow businesses, for many reasons, The Donut Experiment has made the difficult decision to not
re-open our store for a fourth season. We are struggling with a lot of mixed emoAons as we walk away from this parAcular dream, but
re-open our store for a fourth season. We are struggling with a lot of mixed emoAons as we walk away from this parAcular dream, but
we want you all to know that it was our absolute privilege to be welcomed in as part of this community for the past 3 years!
We worked hard to serve up - not only fabulous coffee and donuts - but a lihle bit love, a whole lot of laughs and a place where
everyone felt at home - because that's what its really about, its about the community. We are very proud of what we accomplished
and the friends and memories we take away from this experience will be treasured forever.
We encourage you all to conAnue to support Provincetown businesses as they start to slowly and creaAvely re-open. This season will
undoubtedly present new challenges that many will struggle to overcome - businesses and individuals alike. Remember to be kind,
take deep breaths, be paAent and always take good care and keep each other safe. We wish you all the very best!

With much graAtude,
Michael, Peter and Melissa Silvia

               Kudos to Paul Fanizzi
             and to the Entire Crew!

   Staff from the Center for Coastal Studies (CCS) Marine Animal
  Entanglement Response (MAER) team disentangled a
  humpback whale 15 miles east of Cape Cod yesterday. This is
  the second time the young whale, identified as the 2015 calf
the second time the young whale, identified as the 2015 calf
                                     of Jabiru, has been disentangled by the team in less than a
                                     year.

                                   Recreational boaters aboard the vessel Miss Bridget found
                                   the whale with fishing buoys on its head and rope entering
                                   its mouth. They immediately contacted the US Coast Guard
                                   who then called the report into the CCS emergency hotline.
The boaters stayed with the whale until the MAER team arrived on the scene.

The responders determined that the whale had bitten down on a buoy line attached to fishing
gear on the seafloor, likely while feeding, and was now towing the heavy fishing gear below it.
The whale was notably distressed, likely indicating that it had been recently entangled.

The team used a specialized cutting grapple, thrown from its response vessel, Ibis, to cut the
buoys away from its mouth. Once this was accomplished the whale sped off and any remaining
gear should be shed as the whale resumes feeding.

This was the first whale disentanglement operation since the start of the pandemic. "I think the
entire team has a new appreciation of some of the challenges our first responders have faced”
said Scott Landry, Director of the CCS MAER team. “Disentangling a whale in rough sea
conditions is hard. Doing so with full PPE added a new challenge especially since clear visibility
and communication are key to our safety. But the whole team was up to the challenge and is
committed to keeping our community, and whales, safe.”

The Center is grateful to the crew of the Miss Bridget of Freedom Offshore Adventures and the
US Coast Guard for their help with this case.
Boaters are urged to report any entanglement sightings of whales, sea-turtles or other marine
animals to the MAER team (1-800-900-3622) or the US Coast Guard on VHF 16, and to stand by
the animal at a safe distance until trained responders arrive.

CCS disentanglement work is supported by grants from the National Marine Fisheries Service
(NMFS), the Massachusetts Division of Marine Fisheries (MA-DMF), and the Massachusetts
Environmental Trust. Support is also provided by the Broad Reach Fund of the Maine
Community Foundation, the Pegasus Foundation, the Hermann Foundation, the Mary P. Dolciani
Halloran Foundation, and contributions from CCS members.

All disentanglement activities are conducted under a federal permit authorized by NOAA.
