As of today, May 20, 2025, the MassDEP-mandated water use restrictions have been officially lifted thanks to improved regional drought conditions. This update comes in accordance with our Water Management Act Registration (#31810701) and guidance from the Massachusetts Drought Management Task Force.

👉 You may now resume normal water use — including outdoor activities like lawn watering, car washing, and pool filling.

We sincerely thank our residents and businesses for your cooperation during the recent drought period!

The Cape Ann Community Foundation (CACF) will celebrate its support for the region’s non-profit organizations and programs with its second annual Candlepins for a Cause fundraiser event at Cape Ann Lanes on June 5.

That evening, from 5:30-7:30 pm, the Foundation will celebrate recipients of its 2025 grants. Since its inception in 2015, the foundation has awarded more than 50 grants totalling over $100,000 to Cape Ann non-profit and community organizations. This year, the Foundation received a record number of grant applications during the April proposal submission period. The Foundation selected nine recipients from across Cape Ann, representing a range of services.

At the June 5 event, CACF grant recipients and friends of the Foundation will come together to spotlight CACF support for community organizations and programs and promote adoption of the Cape Ann license plates, which play a key role in this work by generating funds for Foundation grants. The sale of Cape Ann license plates and direct donations to CACF make the Foundation grants possible.

Anyone interested in forming a team is asked to make a $200 donation for a team of six bowlers. Individual bowlers can join for a $35 donation to the Foundation.  Those who’d like to attend the event and cheer on the bowlers – and support the Foundation – can do so with a $20 donation.

Bowlers will compete for prizes for best team score and best individual blowers.

Teams, individual bowlers and other attendees can register by clicking on the event link on the Cape Ann Community Foundation website, www.lovecapeann.com.

“The support we generate with Candlepins for a Cause – along with the revenue from Cape Ann license plate sales and direct donations to the Foundation – helps us assist our region’s non-profit and community organizations,” said CACF Co-Chair Britta Cahoon.

“The Candlepins for a Cause fundraiser will be a fun way to help the Foundation continue its work while honoring the organizations that serve the Cape Ann community,” said  Tony Sapienza, CACF Co-Chair. 

CACF held its first-ever Candlepins for a Cause event in June 2024, and the fundraiser was a sell-out. The Foundation also held a successful virtual golf Driving for Dollars fundraiser at Harbor 9 Golf in February, spotlighting the Cape Ann license plate.
