Located on Cape Cod, the Town of Mashpee is the fastest growing
municipality in the Commonwealth, and felt by its new and old residents to be one of the most gifted with natural beauty. Along with the
Martha's Vineyard Town of Gay Head, it is also unique as one of the remaining homes of the Wampanoag Nation, the Native American tribe which met the
Pilgrims at Plymouth. Although now outnumbered by new residents, the Wampanoag continue to play a significant role in defining the character of the Mashpee community
through the town's Indian Museum, the annual July Pow Wow and other ongoing activities of the Tribal Council.
With over five miles of sandy beaches on
Nantucket and Vineyard Sounds, extensive waterfrontage on Waquoit and Popponesset Bays, four of the largest freshwater ponds on Cape Cod, the three
championship golf courses of New Seabury and Willowbend and numerous other visitor amenities such as the nationally recognized Mashpee Commons project,
Mashpee is a prime resort, seasonal home and retirement community offering both a relaxed pace of life and a complete range of services.
With enhancement of its economic base in mind, Mashpee is actively seeking both environmentally friendly industrial and commercial development and
increased tourist facilities. As part of that effort the Board of Selectmen has officially embarked on a "green tourism" development project
focusing on enhanced access and programming at the Mashpee's 1,000-plus acres of conservation lands as well as South Cape Beach State Park, the
Waquoit Bay National Estuarine Research Reserve and The Trustees of Reservations' Lowell Holly and Mashpee River Reservations.
In addition, 2200 acres in Mashpee have been proposed for inclusion in a new National Wildlife Refuge. All of these efforts are intended to
insure that Mashpee remains true to its Native American heritage, maintains its economic vitality and protects its natural resources and the
sense of tranquility that makes Mashpee residents feel it is one of the best places in the Commonwealth to live, work and visit. |
