Team Chatham grows stronger each time we gather together to talk, laugh, celebrate, and EAT!

Thank you to Town Manager Jill Goldsmith and our Select Board for approving an early closure of Town offices and the Transfer Station on Thursday, September 10th in acknowledgement and appreciation of the work of our municipal employees.

Thank you to our community members for their kind words and understanding of the reason for the early closure.

And thank you to our Employee Engagement and Recognition Committee for putting together our end-of-summer Beach Party (relocated to Volunteer Park due to wind)!

This morning's Remembrance Ceremony marking the 25th anniversary of the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001 was a poignant reminder that the impacts from that day have remained in the lives of so many each and every day since.

Thank you to Chatham's First Responders, elected officials, our partners from USCG Station Chatham, Laura Barabe, and every community member who joined us, especially the family and friends who shared the names of loved ones lost 25 years ago.
