Where dreams set sail...

With your help, our campus is becoming a vibrant community hub for boating, environmental education, and bay stewardship. This is a community resource that is shared with residents and visitors to the Pleasant Bay region.

With a generous loan from the Cape Cod Five Cents Savings Bank, PBCB acquired the McClennen property in late 2014. In less than six months, we raised more than $1 million necessary to secure the down payment and complete preliminary engineering, permitting, and construction projects.

We closed out the first phase of our capital campaign – Charting Our Course – with the ultimate goal to raise $3.1 million for acquisition, rehabilitation, renovation, and repurposing our buildings, grounds, and facilities. We are continuing efforts to raise funds to support PBCB and ensure that we can offer enriching opportunities for future generations.
