The Falmouth Historical Society has selected "Five Women of Achievement" to receive its annual Heritage Award for 2020: Penelope Duby, Margaret Gifford, Barbara Kannellopoulos, Sharon Nunes, and Pamela Rothstein. As you may know, we traditionally select and announce our recipients in the early spring, then honor them at a celebratory dinner in May. Well, this year has been far from traditional. Due to the pandemic, we had to postpone our plans for May, then our alternate plan for October. We simply can't let this year end without recognizing these extraordinary women in some way. Each one has not only made a tremendous and positive impact in the Falmouth community. Each one has also inspired others to do the same. When it is safe to gather again in 2021, we will celebrate their achievements together. I hope you will join us. Until then, we have included brief bios of each recipient online to inform or remind you of their contributions to our community. Prepare to be amazed.
