Barnstable, we need your help!
On Thursday, June 18th, a resident and her little grandson attended the 9:00 mass at Our Lady of Victory, followed by a visit to the Centerville Playground.
She lost her treasured pearl necklace, which holds great sentimental value. If found, kindly contact us, and she can identify them due to their distinct features.
We appreciate your assistance in reuniting her with her lost pearls.

Please send a message to:
[email protected] or [email protected].

We need your help!
As a reminder, please ensure you collect your personal belongings, including trash when leaving, as I collected a bag full of trash, including socks, dirty hand wipes, and chip bags this morning.

We've contacted the structures and grounds department to request installing a trash barrel in the playground area.
In the meantime, a bin is available at the top of the staircase, beside the front driveway. Thank you for reading. It takes a village!

The seating area was completely occupied during yesterday's lunch, and the cutest children taking up every seat at the counter, and it was fabulous to see the place hopping.
Thank you, Josh and Lesley for investing in our village.

We serve old-fashioned cold sandwiches- stop by on your way to or from Craigville Beach! Just save room for ice cream.

Centerville Village, have you seen this cat? A stray I've been feeding for four years disappeared on Tuesday. If you've seen him, please contact me. He's feral with a clipped ear and very much afraid of people and other cats.
Last summer, Spot we named him, went missing for five weeks and came back. I suspect a summer family might be his secondary home.

Thank you and please reach out if you've seen Spot.

Good morning! Regrettably, we have made the decision to cancel the field games following the parade. However, we will offer face painting, an assortment of refreshments, and the playground will be OPEN to welcome the children.

The best bike and buggy competition will take place at Centerville Elementary School prior to the parade, and participants are encouraged to wear their ribbons proudly as they proceed to the Recreational Building.

This year's parade features floats, the color guard, and numerous other exceptional groups. We anticipate your presence in two and a half weeks. As always, we welcome volunteers to assist with distributing refreshments and face painting.

Thank you and if you're interested in volunteering, please email us at [email protected]

It takes a village ♥️
