Sam Diego's auction date set as restaurant closing | Exclusive

Sam Diego’s Mexican Cookery and Bar is done. “We have not sold the business as Sam Diego’s so Sam Diego’s as a restaurant business will be closed on Nov. 14,” said Clarke Buchanan, one of several friends who started Sam’s in 1982. An auction of Sam Diego’s artwork and other decor will be held Nov. 20 to Dec. 2. The auction will be run by Local Liquidation Auctions out of Arizona. They are photographing auction items and writing descriptions now for the online auction. Those who win auctioned items should expect to pick them up at the restaurant on Dec. 3 and Dec. 4, Buchanan said. “There is stuff that’s worth collecting. We have a lot of original artwork by (Barre) Pinske … papier-mǎché by Sergio Bustamante, a Mexican artist, painted cow skulls.” Links to the auction will be available through Sam Diego’s social media. There are plans to auction pretty much all the decorations except the Sergio Bustamante moon. The Bustamante sun, which visitors like to photograph, will be sold. It was damaged years ago by college kids trying to take it off the wall for photos, but repaired by Cape Cod artist Cristina (Cris) Reverdy, Buchanan said. Located

Anderson Fonseca shines for Cape Tech in heartbreaking title loss

HARWICH — Cape Tech’s season isn’t over. That’s what No. 3 Cape Tech coach Brandon Chinchilla told his team after it suffered a heartbreaking 1-0 defeat to No. 4 Westfield Tech on Wednesday in extra time in the Massachusetts Small Division Vocational State Championship. Chinchilla is right. Despite failing to repeat the success from two seasons ago when Cape Tech beat Westfield Tech on penalties at the same stage, the Crusaders have the state tournament to look forward to. “I think it's hard to lose a game like this, but it's teaching the boys that it's not just one game,” Chinchilla said. “There’s a couple of state tournament games we want to go win now.” Cape Tech’s season will be considered a successful one no matter how or when it finishes. The Crusaders won a Mayflower Athletic Conference championship and reached their second vocational state championship in the last three years. The program is in rarefied territory as the 11th-ranked team in the Massachusetts Interscholastic Athletic Association Division 4 power rankings. No Cape Tech boys soccer team has ever been ranked higher. “We’re trying our best to build a culture here,” Cape Tech goalkeeper Anderson Fonseca said. “Even though this

Jack Richardson unseats David Vieira in Cape Cod state rep race

FALMOUTH — Democrat Jack Richardson defeated longtime incumbent state Rep. David Vieira , a Republican, on Election Day, capping a campaign in which both candidates agreed on issues ranging from affordability to environmental concerns but differed sharply on how to address them. After the polls closed, Richardson, 23, was surrounded by supporters at the Daily Brew Coffee House & Lounge as results started to come in around 10 p.m. for the Third Barnstable District state representative seat. Intermittently, Richardson stood before a cheering crowd, updating party attendees on local wins. "I feel good. I'm proud of the campaign we ran. We knocked on over 10,000 doors. Made over 10,000 dials. And went to hundreds of events throughout the district," said Richardson, who is also a Falmouth Select Board member. "People want new ideas. People want new energy." As of Nov. 4, unofficial election results reported that Richardson had claimed roughly 52% of the vote over Vieira, 51, with 48% of the vote. Vieira has been in office since 2011. Throughout his eight-month campaign, Richardson emphasized his connection to working-class families and focused on affordability and the environment. Richardson and Vieira found common ground on some of the Cape's biggest challenges
