Cape May County police raise funds to help local man through No-Shave November Campaign

PRESS RELEASE

This November Police Officers across the Nation, including those from Cape May County participated in the No-Shave November Campaign.

The goal of No-Shave November is to grow awareness by embracing our hair, which many cancer patients lose, and letting it grow wild and free and donate the money you typically spend on shaving and grooming, to educate cancer prevention, save lives and aid those fighting this battle.

The members of the Cape May County Chiefs of Police Association, collectively chose to support a local resident and member of the United States Army National Guard, 253rd Transportation Company; Richard Burrows. This past August Richard was diagnosed with a cancerous brain tumor, defined as a grade 3 Alaplastic Oligodendroglioma, which required a craniotomy to remove a 6cm mass, approximately the size of a golf ball from his frontal lobe.

Richard is required to travel daily to the Perlemen Center in Philadelphia for treatments. Therefore, the men and women of the law enforcement agencies of Cape May County, and the members of the Cape May County Chiefs of Police Association, are proud to present a check to the Burrows Family in the amount of $17,265.00. We hope that these funds will help offset the costs of the daily travel expenses of gas, tolls and food while traveling for treatment.

We wish Richard and his family the best of luck with his continued fight against cancer.

Thank you to all that donated and supported the No-Shave November program, wherever you are!

As we proceed into the holiday season, please keep all those battling this horrible disease, including Richard Burrows, in your thoughts and prayers.

On behalf of all law enforcement officers in Cape May County, we hope you have a safe, joyous and peaceful holiday season.

Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukah, Feliz Navidad and Happy New Year to you and your families.

Please be safe!

PRESS RELEASE

AARP Travel Center, powered by Expedia – one of the top travel websites – has announced that the Wildwoods are among the top destinations for creating vacation memories.

To determine the top destinations for creating vacation memories, AARP Travel Center surveyed nearly 1,000 American travelers over the age of 45. Based on the results, AARP Travel Center pinpointed some of the most popular destinations across the country where travelers have had unforgettable experiences – and the Wildwoods were among the list of destinations.

“We are honored that travelers throughout the country have recognized the Wildwoods as one of the top destinations for creating unforgettable vacation memories,” said John Siciliano, executive director/CFO of GWTIDA (Greater Wildwoods Tourism Improvement & Development Authority). “We pride ourselves in being a favored, multi-generational family friendly resort destination with activities and amenities for everyone to enjoy,” he continued.

With over 160 FREE events and festivals held annually, a five-mile stretch of FREE beautiful, white-sand beaches – voted “Best Beaches in New Jersey” – and a two-mile world-renowned boardwalk with its vast array of amusements, waterparks, arcades, games, shops and eateries, the Wildwoods offers a Jersey Shore tourism experience sure to create lifelong memories, and beckon visitors back year after year.

The Wildwoods’ beaches, often named “Best Beaches in New Jersey,” stretch for five miles across the shores of North Wildwood, Wildwood and Wildwood Crest, and the Wildwoods’ sparkling, clean beaches are unlike most seashore resorts in that they are spaciously wide and completely FREE. They are the perfect spot for swimming, soaking up the sun, relaxing or taking a leisurely walk on a hot summer day.

For those looking for some adventure, the Wildwoods’ beaches also serve as an ideal location for surfing, boogie boarding, power boating, jet skiing, sailing, kayaking and whale watching.

Overlooking the pristine beaches of the Wildwoods is the famous Wildwoods Boardwalk, offering a unique experience for anyone vacationing in New Jersey.

Further details on Morey's Piers' "Runaway Tram Car" - new coaster for 2019

Courtesy of Jack Rouse Associates

Earlier today, Morey's Piers posted a sneak peek of their major new attraction for 2019 - a runaway tram car-themed roller coaster coming to Surfside Pier!

We have since learned some additional info, in addition to a glimpse at the concept art for the ride's layout, courtesy of designer Jack Rouse Associates of Cincinnati, Ohio.

The project's official description reads:

"What happens when the boardwalk's Sightseer tram goes haywire? Find out on this twisting, turning attraction that coaster fans of all ages are sure to love."

YES, Morey's Piers is getting a new coaster for its 50th anniversary season - with a Tram Car theme!

Morey's Piers will celebrate its 50th anniversary season in 2019 and, well... was there ever any doubt that they'd be doing something BIG to mark the occasion?

Today, Morey's posted the above image along with the following on their official Facebook page:

Run for your lives! To celebrate our 50th Anniversary, we're letting something loose on Surfside Pier this summer. Our new family attraction will have you screaming "Watch the Runaway Tram Car Please!"

 
A "Runaway Tram Car?" This sounds uniquely WILDWOOD in the most absurdly delightful way possible!

Rumors of a major addition have been circulating for a while now, and were certainly stoked upon the announcement that the Flitzer would be permanently removed from Surfside Pier at the end of the recently-completed season.

With that work (and subsequent shuffling) now done, the footprint of a new attraction has taken shape.

An official announcement from Morey's Piers will be coming in the following weeks, likely after the new year.

Stay tuned, as this will undoubtedly be one big stories to follow over the offseason months...

Wildwood Vietnam Veterans of America Chapter 955 and American Legion Post 184 to hold rally against Agent Orange

PRESS RELEASE

WILDWOOD - Vietnam veterans in Cape May County are fed up with the lasting effects of Agent Orange!

On November 18th at 10 AM, veterans will gather at the corner lot of Route 9 and Route 47 to gain attention to the issues.

Agent Orange not only affects the men and women of the Vietnam war, it continues to spread to their families through birth.

Over the years, the VA, the government, and health insurers have turned a blind eye to the issues, and have failed to recognize the detrimental side effects to the use of dioxin and Agent Orange. For decades, veterans have rallied for support of Agent Orange with no luck. With an unknown total of health issues Agent Orange and dioxin has caused, finding a cure is out of sight.

American Legion Post 184 Commander Harry Weimar will lead the rally on the 18th like he has done in years prior.

"This is about finding a cure, and admitting Agent Orange has affecting us, our children, grandchildren, and great grandchildren. Many veterans have already died from Agent Orange, and there are even more that do not know they are even affected."

Veterans, community leaders, and local residents are welcome to participate on site to gather media attention, raise awareness to the public, and showcase "the last battle" against Agent Orange.

South Jersey Gas to conduct natural gas renewal project in Wildwood Crest

PRESS RELEASE

WILDWOOD CREST – South Jersey Gas has recently informed the Borough of Wildwood Crest of plans to conduct a natural gas renewal project that will affect some streets in the borough beginning Monday, Oct. 29.

The work is scheduled to be complete by December.

According to a fact sheet about the project sent to the borough, South Jersey Gas will be installing excess flow valves (EFVs) on the natural gas lines. These excess flow valves are mechanical safety devices designed to automatically shut off the flow of natural gas in the event of a service line break or excavation damage.

Work is scheduled to take place along the following streets in Wildwood Crest: Pacific Avenue, Seaview Avenue, New Jersey Avenue, Atlantic Avenue, E. Nashville Avenue, E. Atlanta Avenue, E. Farragut Road, Ocean Avenue, E. Stanton Road, E. Stockton Road, E. Orchid Road and E. Heather Road.

According to South Jersey Gas, work will take place Monday through Friday from 7 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. There is a possibility work may be performed on some Saturdays during the same times.

To ensure safety, there will be lane closures with traffic control personnel directing motorists and pedestrians around all work. South Jersey Gas has stated, however, that residents and businesses will have access to and from their properties at all times.

South Jersey Gas will need access to properties because this work will require a temporary shutdown of natural gas service. Every effort will be made to restore service as quickly as possible. According to South Jersey Gas, typically all work is completed within eight hours but times may vary. Individual gas meters may need to be replaced depending upon their location, age and condition.

According to South Jersey Gas, excavations will be required at the gas mains located in the street. South Jersey Gas may also need to dig on individual properties if necessary. In most cases, a temporary repair will be made until final restoration occurs.

Openings in concrete may be temporarily patched with asphalt until final restoration with concrete occurs. Openings made in grass may not be restored until there is warmer weather to facilitate grass growth.

For more information about this project, residents can contact the Cape May County division of South Jersey Gas at 609-465-2900 and reference the SHARP II Wildwood Crest EFV project.

Courtesy of North Wildwood Rec & Tourism

PRESS RELEASE

North Wildwood City Hall, which is widely recognized as one of the most attractive Municipal Buildings in the State of New Jersey, is slated to undergo extensive exterior renovations to bring the sidewalks and walkways into compliance with current ADA guidelines.

The renovation project will also include the complete overhaul of the landscape irrigation system, as well as new sod and plant beds around City Hall.

Due to the damage they are causing to the sidewalks and walkways, the project will also include the removal and replacement of several trees that are currently planted between the sidewalk and the curb. These trees will be removed and new ones will be planted on the front lawn of City Hall.

“We are extremely proud of just how beautiful North Wildwood City Hall is,” said Mayor Patrick Rosenello. “Our building, parks, and grounds department does an outstanding job of making sure that the City Hall landscaping is the crown jewel off our City.

"Working with our B, P & G Department, our City Engineer, a Landscape Designer, and a Professional Landscaping company, I am confident that these improvements will only add to this beautiful building,” added Rosenello.

The project is scheduled to commence in the coming weeks and will be completed around the New Year.
