The Machacam Club will hold its October meeting on October 1 at the Legion Hall, 3 Depot Street. Social time is 5:30 pm, with dinner at 6:00pm.
Our special guest will be Seth Mendell, who will be departing the next day to return to Florida for the winter. As this year is the 100th anniversary of our Cape Cod Canal, Seth will talk about the early attempts to build a canal across the isthmus and the actual building in the early 1900s. Today’s canal was built by the Army Corps of Engineers in the 1930s and is the widest sea-level canal in the world. With Seth’s skills, the resulting presentation will certainly be most interesting.
