This year’s offerings include more than 100 documentary, animated, and narrative films from around the world, with an emphasis on local filmmakers. For instance, “By Way of Home”, tells the story of a woman who returns to the Cape to work in the family restaurant. “The Golden Scallop” is about the finalists in a seafood shanty contest.

The fun runs through Saturday, August. 3. Tickets are available at the Festival box office at 72 Water Street. The 2013 Woods Hole film Festival concludes with an awards ceremony at 10 p.m. Saturday at the Redfield Auditorium, followed by a closing night party at The Waterfront.

We know that summer has arrived when we hear the lobsterman’s bugle blowing on Monday evenings on the spacious Saint Barnabas lawn.
The bugle is played by a very energetic gentleman who is dressed in Bermuda shorts, a top hat and a lobster suit. He beckons one and all to join him for a fine feast of lobster rolls and chips on a warm summer’s evening.
Fifteen dollars is charged for a meal of a lobster roll, chips, a soft drink or bottled water and your choice of blueberry or apple pie. Children eat free. They are served: a peanut butter and jelly sandwich, chips, a drink-box and a cookie.
This year Saint Barnabas is holding their “Lobster on the Lawn” every Monday from July 8th through to August 19th. The feast is held rain or shine from five to seven P.M. and all proceeds go toward the churches soup kitchen. The kitchen serves three lunch time meals a week, year round to the needy.
