A beautiful, calm morning…perfect for kayaking before work.
Enjoy the weekend!
Each year, Memorial Day weekend takes us by surprise. Â The island transitions from sleepy to crazy almost over night.
And then just a few days later, we revert back to a quiet beach town…at least for the next 2 weeks!
The Borough of Avalon’s holiday events are focused on the weekend of July 1st through July 3rd, with the grand fireworks display on Sunday, July 3rd.
The Stone Harbor fireworks/ music festival at 80th Street field will take place on Monday, July 4th.

Historic (and hilarious) photo of “old” Avalon…four sisters growing up on 51st Street.
We were content to turn the picnic table upside down for our make believe boat!
Obviously, I’m the captain because I’m wearing the official bucket 😉
When Comcast moved out of their 32nd Street location, there was a collective groan from property owners and real estate agents!
But good news (at least temporarily)- Comcast is operating out of a trailer in the Community Hall parking lot at 30th and Avalon Avenue.
The trailer will remain until June 18th to accommodate the seasonal start up on the island.
Convenient to pick up your beach tags AND cable boxes in one trip!
After June 18th, all Comcast business will be handled from the new store in Rio Grande  (Shoprite Plaza on Rt 47- Rio Grande Blvd).
