Mashpee-Wakeby Pond and Santuit Pond have been closed to swimming due to the presence of a cyanobacteria (blue-green algae) bloom. The swimming and access areas are posted with the cyanobacteria advisories and "No Swimming" signs. Cyanobacteria can cause skin irritation and other health issues. Pet owners should use caution to prevent pets from coming in contact or consuming any water from Mashpee-Wakeby and Santuit Ponds. If you have any questions, please contact the Mashpee Board of Health at 508-539-1426.

Due to the health risk, the Sly Fox Mishoon Race has been canceled this year. Stay safe and see you on the Powwow Grounds Saturday.
