We received this e-mail today from the director of the Cape May County Board of Realtors:
FEMA (Federal Emergency Management Agency) is coordinating displaced hurricane survivors with temporary housing. Most survivors who may be able to temporarily relocate to Cape May County are single persons or couples, since families with kids choose to remain in their school districts.
Please contact     gladys.kastrup@FEMA.dhs.gov   for information if you are able to help.
Much better start of my work day- colorful sky over a calm ocean…and no wind!
This is the time of year when air temperature doesn’t totally determine proper dress for a beach walk.
That wonderful sea breeze in the summer months literally turns on us in the winter…and becomes WIND!
Yet still worthwhile to bundle up, turn your face to the warm sun, and breathe in the fresh salt air.
See you on the beach 🙂
A long list of family friendly activities and events in Avalon today (11am to 4pm).  Stop by the Power Play Realty office – we are giving away our logo drawstring backpacks.
At 5pm, join your shore neighbors for the annual Christmas tree lighting at the circle (Veteran’s Plaza)- with live music starting at 4pm.
Later in Stone Harbor, it’s hospitality night along 96th Street.
Perfect weather for a day/night of shopping local, too. Your business is appreciated!
This year, a day of thanks with even more meaning.
Our shore neighbors continue the clean up and restoration of their homes and businesses.  It will be an especially difficult holiday season for many.
Residents in towns farther north face the overwhelming task of rebuilding structures, as well as communities.
In the wake of incredible devastation; compassion, generosity, commitment, and hope remain strong.
I was able to get a first hand view of the damaged roadway connecting Avalon to the Townsends Inlet Bridge. Â Even today, the waves were breaking over the rock wall. Â This has been an on going issue- well before the storm. Â It was not that unusual to be splashed on your way to the bridge!
According to an article in today’s Atlantic City Press, the road will likely be closed until spring.
There will be live music and family activities throughout the shopping districts in Avalon and Stone Harbor– including the “grand” parade at 6:30pm Saturday!
Be sure to pick up a copy of the Seven Mile Times for a complete schedule of holiday events.
Power Play Realty will once again participate in the Festival of Trees. Creatively decorated trees and wreaths will be on display at the Whitebrier Motor Boat Club on 21st Street, Avalon . Bidding begins on Wednesday at 5pm; with winning bids announced after the town tree lighting Friday night.
If you are in downtown Avalon during the day, please stop by our office and say hello. Â We will be giving away Power Play Realty draw string back packs on Festive Friday.
Well, the Jersey shore version 😉 Â It occurred to me this morning- why I find more sea glass on the beach in the off season. The color of the glass…even though softened from tumbling through the waves…stands out against the many shades of gray.
