The Old Stone Dock Association served 70 beach workers including lifeguards, parking attendants, clerks, supervisors, management and guests a breakfast at 7:30 am on Monday, 07/20/26 at the Surf Drive Beach Ellen T Mitchell Bathhouse before the beach workers headed off to their daily assignments at 8:30 am.
Special thanks to Jamie Schuh at Cape Cod Bagel for their generous discount on bagels and cream cheese. Other items included corn bread, banana bread, cinnamon buns, mandarins, apples, breakfast bars, rice Krispie treats and a variety of beverages.
Beach Committee members in attendance were Chair Barb Schneider, Vice Chair Joe Strazzulla as well as members Trish Herlihy and Nancy Quigg. Margie Mitchell, daughter of Ellen T Mitchell who the bathhouse was named for was also in attendance to thank the beach workers and remind all about the Ellen T Mitchell Scholarship program. A photographer from the Falmouth Enterprise was present and as a result there were 3 large pictures with captions in the newspaper on Friday, 07/24/26. The Falmouth Beaches posted a nice thank you to the OSDA on their Facebook Page, along with many pictures, which was also shared to 3 other Facebook Pages (Fabulous Falmouth, Anything Falmouth and Fabulous Falmouth Events) where committee members were mentioned.
