This August I will be running 7 miles in the Falmouth Road Race to support the Cape Cod Commercial Fishermen's Alliance. I’m inspired to be working for and to support an organization that is dedicated to protecting the historic local fishing industry and marine environment which are integral to the character and lifestyle of Cape Cod.
Description
The Cape Cod Commercial Fishermen's Alliance engages the local fishing community in building lasting solutions to protect the ocean ecosystem and the future of Cape Cod's small-boat fishing fleet.
Founded in 1991 by the local fishing fleet, the Fishermen's Alliance is a nationally-recognized nonprofit organization and the leading voice for commercial fishermen on Cape Cod.
Fishermen's Alliance stands for:
- A Healthy Ocean Environment: We advocate for healthy oceans to ensure sustainable and successful fishing businesses.
- Fishermen Driving Science: Fishermen partner with scientists to conduct research to inform sensible and forward-looking fishing regulations.
- Economic Development: We invest in fisheries to provide opportunities for both today's fishermen and future generations to build their businesses.
- Community: We bring fishermen and our community together to create connections that support the local fishing industry and its value to the community.
- Sustainable Solutions: We believe a healthy marine environment is essential to the success and sustainability of Cape Cod's economy. Fishermen's Alliance is taking action now to make sure there will be a future for fish and fishermen.
Thank you for supporting healthy oceans, sustainable fishing and strong coastal communities on Cape Cod!
