THE WETLANDS INSTITUTE has received a grant from the Leff Family Foundation in support of its Coastal Sustainability and Wetland Health Program. The grant will allow Institute scientists to continue monitoring impacts to area marshes, and help guide decision making related to coastal sustainability, beneficial reuse of dredge materials, and wetland restoration.
HAVE OLD AVALON PHOTOS? The Avalon History Center invites you to their “scanning party” on Saturday, October 14th, from 1pm to 3pm. Bring up to ten Avalon photos, and the History Center will scan them for you, and with your permission, will retain a digital copy. Browse the exhibits and enjoy refreshments while you wait! (If you have more than ten photos, let the History Center know so that arrangements can be made to scan your collection at another time.) What a great way to preserve Avalon’s history!
THE COASTAL RESEARCH CENTER from Richard Stockton College of NJ will be surveying the back bays of Stone Harbor twice per year in order to monitor the need for maintenance dredging, as well as bulkhead heights to help the borough research and plan for future flood mitigation efforts.
