Meet Outreach Worker Amanda
Originally from Sandwich, MA., I have always known the Cape to be home. I am adamant in the belief that young adults on the Cape and Islands deserve to be able to live comfortably and securely without having to relocate. I support all young adults in our community- together we bring much needed value, innovation, and diversity to the Cape and Islands.
What part of the Cape did you grow up in?
Sandwich
What is your favorite childhood memory of growing up on Cape?
I was raised by a single father who is my best friend. When I was a kid my dad would take me to the Deli in Sandwich for lunch, we’d go to the canal to eat our sandwiches and watch the fisherman and boats pass by. To this day, I still get the same order from the Deli: turkey sandwich on a bulky roll, a bottle of fresca, and a bag of salt and vinegar Cape Cod potato chips.
What are some activities you enjoy going to in your community?
Some of my favorite activities include exploring the White Cedar Swamp trail in Wellfleet, catching a Friday Night Evening Lecture in the Marine Biological Laboratory’s Lilly Auditorium, and in the wintertime stopping by to see the Gibb’s Family Christmas light display in Sandwich.
