Supporting healthy oceans, sustainable fishing and strong coastal communities on Cape Cod.
It's that time of year again! The Falmouth Road Race is August 18th and I am so excited to help fundraise for the Cape Cod Commercial Fishermen's Alliance this year! Their dedication to maintaining sustainable fisheries is a positive impact on the health of the environment, the future of fishing, and our economy. I'm sure most of you know how passionate I am about the ocean and fishing, specifically in Cape Cod. Being a part of this team really hits home.
This will be my 3rd time running in the Falmouth Road Race. The happiness I feel while running this specific course is quite overwhelming. The scenery is enough to take your breath away. It kills me that I never got to do this with my dad but I know he's right there with me from start to finish.
Thank you for your support!

Our fantastic team is running to raise funds to help us continue our work advocating for our historic small boat fishing industry and sustainable fishing 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.
