HAPPY HALLOWEEN! Island-wide trick or treating takes place Thursday evening (October 31st) from 5pm to 8pm. If you’re driving on the island during that time window, take extra care and watch out for little ghosts and goblins!
AVALON ANNOUNCED A 2025 SAND BACKPASSING project will be necessary to replenish sand lost to erosion on its north end beaches. As before, sand from a borrow site around 34th Street will be moved north to rebuild beaches that need it. It is anticipated that the project will be completed before the summer season. More details to follow in the coming months!

BRUNO’S LUCKY DAY: A dog that fell into Hereford Inlet in North Wildwood and swept away by the tide was rescued by Stone Harbor Fire Department’s Marine unit. “Bruno” was reunited with his happy owner shortly after the rescue.
A CAPE MAY COUNTY BUSINESS was included in last week’s episode of ABC’s Shark Tank. Topsail Steamer, a takeout seafood business that originated on Topsail Island, NC, but with locations in Sea Isle City, Wildwood, and Ocean City, appeared on the show to pitch their takeout steamer buckets to the Sharks. Want to know if Topsail Steamer partnered with a Shark? Watch Season 16, Episode 2 of Shark Tank on demand or online to find out.
