October 23: The Official Ellie Castillo Day in Provincetown


A star was born in Provincetown...

Ellie Castillo, 78-years young, will always be remembered by all of us, her audience.

Rain or shine, summer or winter, Ellie would be there in front of Town Hall enchanting us with tunes such as “New York, New York,” or “My Way.”

The Town of Provincetown recognized Ellie as Ptown’s Singing Ambassador (2004-2011) and commemorated her on October 23. That was the day when, Austin Knight, on behalf the Board of Selectpeople, dedicated one of the town’s benches to Ellie and proclaimed October 23 The Official Elliot Castillo Day in Provincetown.

Friends and family gathered to acknowledge and remember Ellie. One more time, her voice filled Commercial Street and encouraged the audience to sing along...

“Welcome to Ptown! Live your dreams! Love, Ellie”
