Presents

A Look Back at the Cape Cod Canal’s Bridges

With Samantha Gray

Friday, October 30th, 1:00 PM

So much of the focus today is on the future of the bridges that span the Cape Cod Canal. After all, these structures provide a vital link in this community and region. This program, however, will have us looking back in time. What spanned the waterways before? How did our bridges come to be? And what was their impact? With the aid of historic images and film, we’ll explore these stories and more. Q&A time will be available at the end of the program.

Presenter Samantha Gray has been with the US Army Corp of Engineers for 30 years and is a Park Ranger. She works at the Cape Cod Canal where she manages the Canal’s Interpretive Services and Outreach Program as well as the Canal Visitor Center. For her work she has been selected by USACE for multiple awards including regional “Interpreter of the Year” and the American Recreation Coalition’s “Legends Award”. She has a degree in Conservation of National Resources.
