  LOBSTER POT TREE POSTPONED!
A MESSAGE FROM THE POPKO FAMILY
Provincetown Chamber of Commerce - E-Happenings December 3, 2021 Gail M. Vasques - Provincetown Chamber of ...
The Popko Family unfortunately had to postpone installation on Thanksgiving
weekend of the fabulous Lobster Pot Tree in Lopes Square. Due to covid-19
breakthrough cases for two lead family members/organizers/Tree builders they were
not able to build the tree. We planned to omit the LIVE lighting event for 2021 to
avoid this exact risk!
We didn’t think WE would be the EXAMPLE! Once everyone’s health is cleared,
we can build the tree with all its shining lights!
We deeply apologize for all inconveniences regarding your visit to see the tree.
We know many have traveled for the lights.
Until then, the car is loaded & bows are ready, the topper sits on the trailer waiting
​to ride to Lopes Square.
 Please enjoy your visit to Provincetown- there are many wonderful happenings.
 We wish you and your loved ones a very healthy winter.

Thank you for your understanding and support. --From the Popko Family

Following the onset of pandemic-related restrictions in the spring of 2020,
the Cape Cod Commission and the Cape Cod Chamber of Commerce began issuing surveys to Cape
Cod businesses and non-profits to evaluate the timing and extent of the impacts of the COVID-19
pandemic on the local business community.

Currently, a fourth survey is open for responses. This iteration of the survey will evaluate the

Currently, a fourth survey is open for responses. This iteration of the survey will evaluate the
extended effects of the pandemic, including impacts to the 2021 summer season, and results will reveal
more about changes to operations, effects on revenue, impacts to the workforce, and both financial and
non-financial needs.

Survey data collected can be leveraged by businesses, towns, and other organizations in grant
applications and reports, as the results document the initial and ongoing impacts of the pandemic on our
local businesses and non-profits. Please take a few minutes to complete the survey below.

   Dissolution of the Mid-Cape J-1 Housing Program
The ongoing pandemic has placed many new responsibilities on our senior pastor, Matt, and myself
concerning the church. It is difficult for me to juggle the housing program and the responsibilities of the
church. So, with a heavy heart, I am dissolving the Mid-Cape J-1 Housing Program.
I have emailed hosts and landlords with a list of employers that hire J-1 students, so they may contact
employers directly concerning housing availability.
Matt and I will still be involved with the road safety program (backpacks, bike lights, etc.). We will also
continue to help provide J-1 events with Hello Summer J-1.
It has been an amazing and crazy 8 years. Thank-you for helping our J-1 participants to have a safe and
great summer!

beautiful holiday displays throughout town from the safety and comfort of their own vehicles.
Places like the Lobster Pot Tree, Provincetown Monument and the Town Hall can all be a part of the
guide. Last year we had over 1700 people view the map and we want to expand it!

We ask that all participants have their homes lit up at night when/if possible through January 3rd.

Frost will soon be on the pumpkin, salt marsh grasses are turning russet, and hardwood trees are showing off a
kaleidoscope of colors, signifying the transition to late fall and the scaling back of some seashore operations.

The Province Lands Visitor Center operation in Provincetown has closed for the season. Over the next few
months, rehabilitation work will be occurring at the center, including a new roof, exterior and interior repairs, and
installation of new carpeting. During construction, outdoor observation decks may be closed for public safety.

Salt Pond Visitor Center in Eastham continues its daily operation, with staff and volunteers assisting visitors with
maps, brochures, and orientation information at the building entrance between 9 am and 4:30 pm. The America’s
National Parks store at Salt Pond is open Tuesdays through Sundays but will close for a short time in December.

Restrooms are available through the winter at Province Lands and Salt Pond visitor centers, and vault
toilets are available at Hemenway Landing in Eastham, Head of the Meadow Beach in Truro, and Herring
Cove Beach in Provincetown.
Leashed pets are welcome on seashore beaches and on the Nauset, Head of the Meadow, and Province Lands
bike trails during the winter months. Pets are not permitted on seashore walking trails, except for a short segment
at the beginning of the Great Island Trail in Wellfleet. Bikes are not allowed on walking trails or on beaches.
Several construction projects are underway this fall.
Work Areas: The Nauset Bicycle Trail is being rehabilitated to repair safety issues on the section between Salt
Pond Visitor Center and Doane Picnic Area. This segment of the trail is closed. The trail between Doane and Coast
Guard Beach is open. Work should conclude in late November.
Root-impacted sidewalks at Salt Pond Visitor Center are being repaired under the same contract. Construction
work on the new bathhouse at Nauset Light Beach has resumed, and parking remains limited. The major
rehabilitation of Highland Lighthouse is headed toward completion
this winter. Other construction projects getting underway over the next several months include new roofs, chimney
repairs, installation of new septic systems, rehabilitation of the Atwood-Higgins House, and interior repairs and
conservation treatment at the Captain Penniman House. Seashore partners are carrying out significant historic
preservation work, including painting and repairs to Nauset Light by the Nauset Light Preservation Society, and
completion of the major rehabilitation of the Highland House Museum by the Truro Historical Society.

           Warning: Keep Wildlife Wild - This includes coyote and fox
​There have been serious incidents in the past few years involving bites to people and pets. Keep your distance and
 do not feed wildlife. Rangers have been responding to incidents of coyotes acting assertively toward people in
 attempts to obtain food. This behavior starts with people feeding the coyotes intentionally by leaving food out, or
 inadvertently by not removing food scraps and packaging from the beach. This leads to the animals becoming
 habituated and bold in attempts to obtain food. When wild animals lose their fear of people, they behave
 unpredictably and aggressively, resulting in injuries to people and a sad ending for the habituated animal.

                                           Keep wildlife wild.
                               Protect your safety and the safety of others.
                                      Do not feed or attract wildlife!
                                    Report assertive coyote sightings
                            to rangers or the dispatch center at 617-242-5659.

                                                       Annual “Souper” Saturday lunch
                                                               on December 4,
                                                         from 11:30am until 2:30pm,
                                                              at Tin Pan Alley,
                                                           269 Commercial Street,

     For $8 per serving, the public is invited to enjoy a 12-ounce cup of hot, hearty soup provided
                   by one of more than 30 local restaurants and other businesses.
                      A cash bar will be open and piano entertainment provided.

            Takeaway quarts of cold soup will be available for $15 just steps away at the
                               Firehouse, 254 Commercial Street,
          where SKIP merchandise such as T-shirts and mugs will also be available for sale.

   “‘Souper’ Saturday is a popular annual event, and it brings SKIP much-needed funding to help our
                        volunteers operate this remarkable community resource,”
                   said Philip Franchini, chairperson of the SKIP board of directors.
                   “It’s also a great way to get into the spirit of the season of giving.”

          From November through April, SKIP serves hot, nutritious meals weekdays at the
                   Provincetown United Methodist Church, 20 Shank Painter Road.
SKIP meals, served from 12:30pm until 1:30pm are free of charge and open to anyone in the community.
      The soup kitchen estimates it will serve more than 15,000 meals during its current season.

“Our lunches can assist people on fixed incomes and help fill the gap in a winter economy that stretches
  the budgets of those with seasonal employment,” said Mark Bjorstrom, SKIP’s vice-chairperson and
treasurer. “Besides offering a place for the delicious food our volunteers prepare and serve, SKIP helps
   build a sense of community, which is particularly important during the winter months when people
                                         sometimes feel isolated.”

    Those unable to attend “Souper” Saturday who’d like to offer their support may send a
          tax-deductible donation to SKIP at PO Box 538, Provincetown, MA 02657,

     The Homeless Prevention Council (HPC) is the beneficiary of the Addison Art Gallery’s
                          Saturday, December 11 Holiday Open House.
The Open House will run from 10:00 am to 6:00 pm with an Artists’ Reception from 4:00 pm to 6:00
          pm. The Addison Art Gallery is located at 43 South Orleans Road, Orleans.

Hadley Luddy, HPC Chief Executive Officer, said, “With the generosity of businesses such as the Addison
Art Gallery, we are helping those who have been hardest hit by the coronavirus pandemic. The pandemic
has changed how we live and work and has contributed directly to the housing boom and increased cost
of living for our Cape families. The need is year-round and has never been greater.”
 The Addison Art Gallery Open House will feature an oil painting demonstration by award-winning oil
painter Maryalice Eizenberg from 10:00 am to noon. Known for her expressive use of dramatic patterns
of light and color, Eizenberg is also a sought-after instructor. The Artists’ Reception will feature music by
8-string guitarist Fred Fried, a new exhibition, and treats for the collectors.
A portion of the day’s sales is to be donated to support HPC.
 HPC has served as a critical resource for Lower Cape residents, helping more than 42,000 people
throughout its 30-year history. HPC strives to empower people to attain financial independence and
preserve their housing. HPC is here to support the residents of Lower and Outer Cape Cod as we work to
foster a community where everyone can thrive. For more information, please visit hpccapecod.org.

to provide personalized case management solutions to promote stability for all who live in our
community.
The highly regarded Addison Art Gallery has a well-deserved reputation for personal service and

Can you go bird watching in Provincetown in the winter?
                         Come and stay at Gabriel's and participate
                       in the Audubon's 122nd Christmas Bird Count
         Tuesday, December 14, 2021, through Wednesday, January 5, 2022.
                    Year-round Birding on Cape Cod isn’t just good,
                              let’s say it’s exceptional!
Winter bird-watching can be such a rewarding experience. Birds don't hibernate and they remain active
                     even in the coldest parts of the year, more so than us humans!
            Gabriel’s is open year-round. There is free parking in town in the winter months
          so your car can be close by ready for you to go spot a Snowy Owl in the dunes or a
           Common Eider at the pier. Winter also brings the occasional Dovekie to our bays.

                               Birds from Past Bird Counts
             Venture out to Cape Cod this winter to see some of the past birds counted
                          below and newcomers yet to be added to this list!
  Ash-Throated Flycatcher, Rufous Hummingbird, Western Tanager, Painted Buntings, a Snow Goose,
Northern Saw-Whet Owls, Short-Eared Owls, Red Knots, Yellow-Breasted Chats, Common Yellowthroat,
Evening Grosbeaks, Tree Swallows, Pacific Loons, Black Guillemot, Black-legged Kittiwake, Iceland Gulls,
  Great Shearwaters, Thick-Billed Murres, Pink-Footed Goose, Blue-Headed Vireo, Lincoln's Sparrow,
                                   Northern Shrike, Barred Owls.
            If we are lucky the Ancient Murrelet will return to Race Point as it did last year!
                        This was the Ancient's first visit in a recorded 20 years!

                                    Christmas Bird Count
                        Birders and non-birders are welcome to join the count
                    on the outer Cape covering Wellfleet to the Provincetown line.
    There are 6 distinct sections, 3 on the bayside and 3 on the ocean side. Habitats include ocean,
     bay, tidal flats, salt marsh, extensive cattail marsh, and shrub swamp, dense coastal thickets,
  freshwater ponds, and dunes, with great potential for rarities. Much of the count circle is protected
                                   within the Cape Cod National Seashore.

simply as “the army-navy store,” it is an
eclectic treasure trove of salvage,
surplus, slight irregulars, closeouts,
overruns, misprints, mistakes, spare

imports, and new and nearly-new
items. Over time it’s grown to be the

Provincetown deserves. Wheelchair

                               BizTips #1 – Brand Building

Building a brand in a noisy environment is the task all businesses, large and small, are challenged to
accomplish. The task is to build awareness in a competitive environment where there are many
competing messages. The challenge is to find a way to connect with buyers who have a need, want or
desire that you can fulfill. The process of brand building is taking buyers through the buying continuum
from unawareness to purchase and repurchase.
Be data focused. What are your strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats? Know these
elements of your business intimately so you know how to approach your customers and prospects.
Know your competition. What is working for them? What are they offering and how are they reaching
their buyers? How is your value proposition being received? How can you deliver your message in a
more efficient and effective way to reduce your sales and marketing investments? How can you position
yourself so that you are perceived as having no suitable substitute, e.g., gain competitive advantage?
Put a human face on your brand. Brands are perceptions. Perceptions become facts. Brand
management is all about story telling. When buyers see your brand, they see the soft side of the business
equation. Does it displays the human side of your business? Does it tell a story allowing connection with
potential customers and reinforcing current ones? Does it make the connection to allow you to generate
greater share of customer purchases?
Integrate your marketing. Effective brand building is part of an integrated marketing initiative that
connects you with buyers at a variety of levels. The challenge is to determine what channels your target
customers tune into. And, how will you tell it? The task is (1) to get their attention, (2) capture their
interest, and (3) convert them.
Making a positive connection with your brand message that demonstrates the values it represents is the
foundation of building a positive brand that drives sales.

Intersection
       Intersection is an apt name for the first exhibition
       in the new Hudson D. Walker Gallery. The show
       features the work of eight past Fellows, all
       selected by guest curators from the Work Center

       that has nurtured artists and writers for decades.

                  Intersection is on view from
                October 29 through December 5.
