“2020: Shred It!”

“2020: Shred It!”

Please join us Saturday, December 26th, from 10-11:30 AM for “2020: Shred It!”, for a special event presented by the Truro Historical Society. We’ll provide paper and a shredder, and you’ll get a chance to write down why you want to say goodbye to 2020 and then drop your thoughts into the shredder. After ridding yourself of 2020’s bad karma, you’ll pick up a packet of seeds to serve as a fresh start for 2021. After ridding yourself of 2020’s bad karma, you’ll pick up a packet of seeds to serve as a fresh start for 2021.

The event will take place on the sidewalk outside of the Cobb Archive. We will abide by social distancing guidelines, so plan to wear your face mask and remain 6 feet apart from others. Drop by the Cobb Archive at 13 Truro Center Road to participate. For more information, email Lauren Kaufmann at [email protected].

HISTORIC TRURO: Landmarks and Legends Self-Guided Tours

A joint project of the Truro Historical Commission and the Truro Historical Society, this guidebook was created to commemorate the 400th anniversary of the landing of the Mayflower in Cape Cod Bay in 1620 and is an update of the 1984 guide that celebrated the 275th anniversary of the founding of Truro.

This program was supported in part by a grant from the Truro Cultural Council, a local agency that is supported by the Massachusetts Cultural Council, a state agency. Funding for printing was also provided by the Truro Chamber of Commerce, Truro Part-Time Resident Taxpayers’ Association, and Truro Vineyards of Cape Cod.
