Welcome to the 2025 OBBC!
The Oak Bluffs Bluewater Classic is held in Falmouth, Massachusetts on Cape Cod. The OBBC continues to raise funds for a variety of local charities, which include the Island Autism Group, the MV Boys & Girls Club, the MV Food Pantry, and the MGH Colon Cancer Research Fund. In 2024 the OBBC donated $19,000.00 to the MGH Colon Cancer Research Fund in memory of Kevin Glynn.
