The cooling tempera- tures are bringing a quick end to a great summer.As I type, the ac- tivity at the hurnmingbird feeder outside my office window is non-stop as the amazing little birds get ready for the journey south toward year-round nectar. The Village of Centerville is wrapping up a busy summer.Like most of our neighboring villages, our Civic Association, mu- seums, library and other organizations have offered us a schedule filled with music, lectures, tours, and treasure hunts, and Old Home Week even brought us a road race and a beach- side bonfire. (Thanks, Roy Richardson!) Thank you to all who gave us so many options for entertainment this summer! Arts and Entertainment inHyannis This summer the town offered up a new venue in its Harbor YourArts Pro- gram for music and theater performances. Aselton Park has become a perfect venue for theaters on sum- mer Sunday afternoons, and concerts on Tuesday evenings. The stage is located at the base of a hill that forms a bowl, with the harbor behind it creating a perfect setup for viewing and sound. My husband and I joined a small crowd early this summer on a Sunday -. afternoon to watch a tal- ented group of Barnstable Sfigh School students and Alumni perform A Mid- summer Night's Dream. The day was hot, but the breeze from the harbor cooled the air and we were able to enjoy a fabulous performance. The performances and the work around the stage are all part of a successful project completed by staff in our Growth Manage- ment Department, and involving art and theater students from Barnstable High School. For more details, check out the Web site www.harboryourarts. com. The Growth Manage- ment department is also responsible for the cha- rettes, orvisioning ses- sions, that have been held with the Centerville Civic Association. These meet- ings will all come together in a presentation this fall -check my Web site for updates, www.janetjoakim. org. The department has reviewed the priorities of those who gave input, and, based on that informa- tion, will explore changes in zoning and other tools to protect the Craigviile Beach area and explore creating a more reason- able zoning plan for our Route 28 corridor between Lumbert's Milland Phin- neys lane, among other issues. Stay tuned! Issuesimportant toyou There have been several other issues that have gen- erated calls, e-mails and let- ters since my last column.
