This is Brewster
Long time local residents speak about the joys and wonder of living in Brewster on Cape Cod.
Karen:
It’s just one of those places. I mean where else on the Cape do you have no working traffic light. Can you name one town that doesn’t have a traffic light. We had one at one time, but it doesn’t work.
Steve:
Brewster is a town with a lot of history, and although changes have come to Brewster and the Cape, in general, Brewster has kept its character throughout the time of change.
Jim:
Well, we have two draws that I can see for the town of Brewster. One is the seasonal draw. We have vast beaches about 11 miles of them.
We have a lot of ponds if people want to get into the fresh water. And the year-round residents come here for retirement. Or the younger folks come here for the great educational system.
Steve:
One activity that I really like in Brewster is the availability of high tide and swimming and then low tide and the flats.
Karen:
When you can go out for a mile and just keep walking and keep walking back without having water above your waist.
It’s just something you won’t experience anywhere else. It’s also a calming experience when you walk out on the flats, you aren’t going to have the noise that you have in other areas or even at the dock.
Steve:
We have two beautiful 18 hole golf courses that are connected called The Captain’s Course.
Jim:
The Captain’s was one of the top 25 courses named in 1986.
Steve:
Brewster’s main street is route 6A and if you travel along it you’d see the marshes of Brewster, you’ll see the Sea Captain’s houses.
Jim:
The town of Brewster is known for the Sea Captain’s town. There are probably 20-25 seas captain’s homes throughout the town.
Steve:
The Sea Captain population here in Brewster was probably greatest in the mid-1800s.
Jim:
Another site you’ll see as you travel along 6A is the Brewster general store. Us locals think of that as the center of Brewster.
Karen:
I go there a couple times a week and see the people that come in. And they always come back. And they come back with their kids. Then they come back with their grand children. And the grand children grow up and they start coming here.
Steve:
When I was a kid growing up here in Brewster we lived fairly close to the Brewster Store and it was always a great place to go, great place to visit, great place to explore all the different things that were there. It’s still a great place to explore because it’s very much as it was back in the day when I was a child here.
Jim:
We have the Punkhorn parklands in West Brewster which is hundreds of open space acres the town’s purchased; the 1900 acre Nickerson State Park. My child grew up there and went fishing…sporting. My grand children now go over there. There’s hiking and all types of activities to enjoy with the family.
Karen:
My son and his wife and family rent the yurts. You can stay overnight in a yurt that has electricity or you can take tents in there.
Steve:
I think the type of people who tend to live in Brewster are passionate about preservation of what’s here…
Passionate about preservation of the environment…
Passionate about keeping Brewster so that people can enjoy it in future years.
Out on the Brewster flats
When the tide goes out in Brewster it goes way, way out! So we shucked our shoes and walked onto the endless flats--check it out!

Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.
Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain
Now learn the vast amount of general knowledge available on Wikipedia through audio (audio article). You could even learn subconsciously by playing the audio while you are sleeping! If you are planning to listen a lot, you could try using a bone conduction headphone, or a standard speaker instead of an earphone.
