Cape Cod National Seashore - 50 Years Young in 2011

Next year the Cape Cod National Seashore reaches its 50th anniversary, having been created in 1961 by President John Kennedy. A lot has changed on Cape Cod in those 50 years. And, thankfully, a lot has stayed the same, mostly due to the National Park. This next year will be full of special events commemorating the 50th anniversary. We'll need to remember to check the Seashore's website often to not miss any of these events.

The figure here is the new logo for the 50th anniversary, showing the Highland Light, in Truro, against a map of the Outer Cape.
