According to Bourne State Police, work may continue on the pedestrian sidewalk as needed,but that work would not impact travel lanes. The work on the bridge was postponed from lastfall to this spring after an outcry from local business and tourism officials.They asked for the delay after the Sagamore was reduced to one lane in the spring of 2018and wanted to avoid both shoulder tourism seasons in one year being impacted by bridgerepair work.

Provincetown breakwater, super 'Worm Moon" tide by Jay Critchley

Greetings to the Swim for Life Community,

Spring is well on its way in Provincetown and my snap peas have just sprouted! The tomatoes don't go in until June 1 (we're a few weeks behind the mainland here, surrounded by cold water).

It's also time to officially announce the 32nd Provincetown Swim for Life & Paddler Flotilla, set for September 7. For many of us it's an important tradition, one that anchors our lives and offers communal stability and inspiration. The Provincetown Community Compact thanks you for sharing a part of your lives with us, in the healing waters of Provincetown Harbor. Our beneficiaries also thank you for your generosity.

We all love our favorite t-shirts! Over the years, many of you have asked how you might acquire previous Swim t-shirts. Well, we have created The Compact Store with the last four Swimdesigns (we have mugs too!) from artists Zehra Kahn, Ellen LeBow with Andrea Pluhar, Bill Evaul and Allan McKinnon. Additional designs will be added periodically.

We will be sending out updated swimmer, boater and volunteer information around June 1, also with the new 2019 Swim design!

Enjoy the spring and thanks for your heartfelt commitment to this essential Provincetown tradition. Be sure to thank our business sponsors when you're in town.

Peace, Jay
