Less than three months to Memorial Day Weekend!
LESS THAN THREE MONTHS to Memorial Day Weekend! Despite the grey skies and chilly temperatures most of us have been experiencing lately, we’re just a few months from kicking off our summer season—something that brings a smile to all our faces.
BEACH SWEEPS ARE BACK, returning to both Avalon and Stone Harbor on Saturday, April 1st. Volunteers are needed to help clean beaches in each town, removing trash and debris, helping to keep them beautiful. Dress for the weather, bring your own bucket, and wear hard-soled shoes. To volunteer, please register for the beach sweep at www.CleanOceanAction.org.
NEW IRRIGATION RULES in Stone Harbor prohibit the watering of grass, trees, and landscape beds between the curb and sidewalk using installed sprinklers. These areas may only be watered using drip or trickle irrigation systems. The ordinance was approved last April and went into effect January 1st.
AVALON BEACH TAGS can be purchased online! As in years past, Avalon has partnered with Jersey Cape Tags to make beach tags available for online purchase and shipping right to your door!

SPRING PROPERTY MAINTENANCE should be on your mind! Don’t wait–schedule your spring maintenance now, and beat the rush. Call your landscaper for flowers or shrubs; schedule your plumber to turn on your outside water lines; set up a powerwashing (or softwashing) of your siding; have your painter refinish your front door, trim, or other surfaces.
NEED A CONTRACTOR? From pools to patios, doors to decks, and flowers to fences, I’m happy to recommend contractors or service providers. Need one? Call or email me!
