Cape Elizabeth photographer and writer Jan Reale invites longtime Cape Elizabeth residents to two sessions of her free, informal series, “I Remember Cape Elizabeth: Senior Stories, Extraordinary Memories.” Both will be held from 10 to 11 a.m. Tuesdays at the Community Center, with the first planned March 20 and the second April 13.
A member of the Cape Elizabeth Historical Preservation Society, Reale encourages people to turn out for one or both sessions to share personal stories about life in Cape, “whether it be about growing up during World War II, farming, fishing, riding the trolley from Portland, school experiences, Fort Williams, or anything else. All stories are of interest,” she said. “These informal sessions will give participants an opportunity to record their memories and make memory postcards to help preserve Cape Elizabeth history.”
Some of the memories Cape residents have recorded in past “I Remember Sessions” are currently on display at Thomas Memorial Library (see page 12).
