I interviewed at the CCT with Bill for a sports reporter job a few years back and I could tell that he would be a great editor to work for. If covering the Cape league and living on the Cape hadn't sold you on applying for this yet, consider this my thumb's up on the gig.

How much reporting can be expected?

Assuming the job search takes several weeks, you'll be moving in after the peak tourist season and won't spend a fortune on housing straight away.

The Cape is a place for three seasons -- three and a half, really, because oftentimes the bad storms will miss you entirely.
