Activities and Events for early July 2019

The Sandwich Weekly Podcast Episode 9. Activities and events from Friday July 5 through Thursday July 18

Hello again and welcome to the Sandwich Weekly Podcast. This is Episode 9, covering activities and events in and around Sandwich for the period Friday July 5 through Thursday July 18.

There are many activities and events in the Sandwich Weekly Podcast and I’m always looking for new ways to make it easier for you to find what you’re interested in. If you’re using a podcast player that supports chapter markers such as, Overcast, Pocket Casts, or the Apple Podcast app, you can skip directly to any day in the audio file. This, unfortunately, isn’t a feature that’s available on the podcasts web page.

On the podcast web page you can scroll down the show notes to look for particular days of activities. You can also use the standard search keys (ctrl-f on pc or cmd-f on Mac) to enter your search terms.

This week I introduced a new feature that will, hopefully, make the show notes easier to navigate. At the top of the show notes there are shortcuts to go directly to a particular day in the notes. This way you won’t need to scroll down the list to find the day in which you are interested.

Here’s the schedule of activities and events for the next two weeks…
