Avalon and Stone Harbor NJ Weekly Update August 10th, 2017


THE AVALON HOME AND LAND OWNERS ASSOCIATION’S annual meeting will take place Saturday, August 12th, at Avalon Community Hall.  Mayor Martin Pagliughi will review the “State of the Borough” and County Engineer Dale Foster will address “County Projects in Avalon.”  Both will take questions after their talks.  All are welcome; refreshments will be served at 9:30am, and the meeting will begin at 10am.

Sailors furl their sails on the way back to the dock, as daylight gives way to evening.


“DOLPHIN WHISPERER” Nik Pattantyus has become well known for his dolphin videos, filmed while on his paddleboard just off Seven Mile Beach.  Philly.com recently ran a great story on Nik and his videos…check it out here:

SEA ISLE BEACHCOMBER TOURS:
  Volunteer guides lead beachcomber tours each week on Sea Isle City’s beaches.  On each tour participants scour the beach for shells and other items, which are identified by the tour guide.  The tour costs only $1 for adults or children, and leave from Sea Isle’s 29th Street Promenade at 10am every Tuesday, and every Thursday from the Pavillion at Townsend’s Inlet Waterfront Park, through August 31st.  Simply check in with the tour guide before departure.

FOX ON THE BEACH!  While your combing Sea Isle’s beach, be on the lookout for a fox that’s been spotted several times.  Officials have attempted to trap the fox in order to relocate it to Atlantic County, but thus far have been unsuccessful.

PLANNING AHEAD!  There’s plenty of summer fun remaining but it’s never too early to line up some events on Seven Mile Island for September and October.  Mark your calendars now:  22nd Annual Nun’s Beach Surf Contest, 111th Street beach, 7am Saturday, September 16th; 6th Annual Savor September Festival, 96th Street, Saturday, September 23rd; Avalon Seafood Festival, 30th Street & the beach, Saturday & Sunday, October 7th & 8th.

258 PROPERTIES have sold in the local market since the first of the year; 85 more are currently under contract.  Why not join the fun and purchase your very own beach home?  Call me and I’ll help you find the perfect shore retreat for your needs!
