Evening sunsets have been spectacular in recent weeks!
Catch
them from nearly any street end, pier, or dock!
CAPE MAY COUNTY earned
Best in Show Honors at the Great American State Fair in
Washington, DC! Cape May County's presentation featured a
sand sculpture, a three-minute promotional video, and
representatives gave away more than 50,000 samples of salt water
taffy!
LIFEGUARD
COMPETITIONS are underway, as beach patrols from around
the county compete with each other. During the Cape May
County Lifeguard Championship held last week in Wildwood Crest,
Ocean City Beach Patrol took first place, defending champs
Wildwood Crest took second, and Avalon placed third.
Competition continues this Friday in North Wildwood, where
county beach patrols will again match up in the Beschen-Callahan
Memorial Lifeguard Races.
SLOW DOWN, YOU'RE AT THE BEACH!
We all love the beach for a chance to relax and slow
down. Sometimes we need to remember to slow down when
driving local roads. They're filled with bicycles,
pedestrians crossing, and even turtles seeking higher ground
upon which to lay eggs. Give ,em all a "brake!"
Arriving a moment or two later won't make any real
difference—but it makes local roads safer for all of us!
GOTTA DO IT: Miniature Golf
and Ice Cream! There may be no more classic combination of
shore vacation activities than miniature golf followed by ice
cream! Friendly competition for all ages, followed by
sweet treats! Try out some local offerings!
