Time Magazine recognizes Stone Harbor and Hoy's 5&10

Time Magazine recognizes Stone Harbor and Hoy's 5&10

"Stone Harbor is located on a island just four city blocks wide. This town is known for its fine white-sand beaches and Cape Cod–style houses. Visitors flock to Stone Harbor for its ice cream stores, pancake houses, surf shops and Hoy's Five & Ten, the town's legendary general store. Find everything you need for your beach vacation here — board games, beach hats, footballs, kids' toys and even hermit crabs. Nothing is five or 10 cents anymore, and most items seem a bit overpriced, but who wants to drive off the island to find cheaper sunblock?"

Avalon Gets Environmental Award

The Cape May County Chamber of Commerce presented Avalon with the 19th annual Environmental Conservation Award on Oct. 20 for many innovative initiatives enacted over the past 12 months.

“Avalon is honored to receive this prestigious award from the Cape May County Chamber of Commerce,” Avalon Mayor Martin Pagliughi said in accepting the award on behalf of the borough during the chamber’s annual dinner meeting. “In Avalon, proactive environmental initiatives are a way of life. I want to thank the Avalon Environmental Commission, Avalon Green Team, the Avalon Garden Club and other community volunteers and organizations who support the borough’s continued environmental leadership.”
In the past year, the Green Team initiated a major water conservation experiment on three traffic islands on Dune Drive and also held a very successful Green Fair on Oct. 8 that attracted more than 1,500 people. The team also began the process of exploring energy alternatives, including the potential for a solar-energy project involving the borough and Avalon Elementary School.

The Environmental Commission has been instrumental with major progress involving the borough’s Dune Vegetation Management Plan, along with environmental improvements planned for Armacost Park. The Avalon Garden Club continued its major beautification efforts in the community.

This past summer, Avalon installed New Jersey’s first municipal electric-vehicle charging station in front of the Avalon Public Safety Complex on Dune Drive. The borough also installed protective turtle fencing along the north and south sides of Avalon Boulevard.
“We appreciate this recognition from the Cape May County Chamber of Commerce,” said Jim Collins, chairman of Avalon’s all-volunteer Green Team. “Thanks to the leadership of mayor and council, we are able to consider and implement many new environmental initiatives in the borough. Avalon has a deep and vested interest in exploring new environmental initiatives that conserve resources and save money.”

Kick Off the Holidays Island Style in Stone Harbor!

Kick Off the Holidays Island Style in Stone Harbor
By Jennifer Davenport

The holiday season is quickly approaching and if you aren’t quite feeling it yet, a visit to Stone Harbor over Thanksgiving weekend is sure to do the trick. There is no reason to fight the crowds and stand in line at the mall. Shop right here in town! You can even get a head start on your wrapping if you stop by Diller & Fisher over the weekend. They will do it for you!

There will be loads of activities and entertainment all day and into the night on Friday, Nov. 25 and Saturday, Nov. 26. There will be costumed characters strolling the business district, available for photos. Your children will have a blast creating sand art, getting their faces painted and writing letters to Santa while you enjoy listening to Christmas carolers strolling through town. Holiday refreshments will be served, including donuts and hot chocolate.

If you don’t yet have your photo for your Christmas card, bring your camera to the Stone Harbor lifeguard boat. Also, throughout the weekend, Stone Harbor will be draped in holiday music as participating shops depict favorite Christmas carols in their windows. Visitors are invited to take a stroll through town to enjoy the displays and see if they can “name that holiday tune!”

On Friday, there will be entertainment throughout the day on the 96th Street stage. From 9-11 a.m., stop by Jack’s Shack on Third Avenue and decorate some Christmas cookies. At 11 a.m., head over to the new Stone Harbor Book Shop (located in the mall), for story time with Santa himself. Even Fido gets a chance to get in on the action this holiday! Our annual pet parade starts at 1 p.m. and runs the 200 & 300 blocks of 96th Street. Once the parade is over, your pet will have a chance to tell Santa all of his Christmas wishes! Santa will be at Paw Prints from 2-4 p.m. for pet pictures.

But the fun doesn’t end there! On Friday, the business district will host Hospitality Night from 6-9. Most of the stores in town will be open for you to visit and enjoy refreshments while you shop. Don’t miss the tree lighting at 7, followed by a performance from the Mummers String Band.

Saturday brings another round of shopping and fun. Start off your day with a good breakfast for a great cause: At 9 a.m., the Women’s Civic Club will host a Toys for Tots continental breakfast. Bring an unwrapped toy that will go to a needy child this Christmas and enjoy a complimentary breakfast with visits from various Christmas characters. After some shopping and a chance to work up your appetite again, Stone Harbor Bar & Grill will be hosting lunch with Santa from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m.

There are many stories that span generations to complement the holiday season. Join Santa at Stone Harbor Book Shop at 10 a.m. and again at 2:30 p.m. for story time. At 11 a.m., try your hand at making ornaments at Just Bead It, located at 9514 Third Ave. Then, at noon, Seashore Ace will host a Weber Grill Cooking Demonstration, followed by photos with Santa at the firehouse from 3-5 p.m.

Members of Our Saviour Lutheran Church will be caroling under the clock from 6-6:30 p.m., leading up the annual Christmas Parade. Once the parade has concluded, warm up and visit with Santa at Coffee Talk.

What a way to kick off the holiday shopping season! There is so much to see and do this holiday weekend in Stone Harbor. Please join us for shopping and fun all weekend long. Happy Holidays!

Things are Getting Festive in Avalon!

Things are Getting Festive in Avalon!
By Jennifer Davenport


Thanksgiving is a time for family and a chance to give thanks for all of the blessings in your life. However, let’s not forget that it’s also the time to start (if you haven’t already) your holiday shopping! The day after Thanksgiving is traditionally a major shopping day. This year, instead of standing in line at the mall, why not shop locally? Avalon has a long list of incredible stores to shop in and, with our annual Festive Friday event, we will help your children have fun, too!

Hosted by the 7 Mile Business Community Association and the Borough of Avalon, Festive Friday has more than 40 free holiday activities for children of all ages to enjoy. This is the fourth year for the event, and each year it gets bigger and better! Join us for live entertainment throughout the business district from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m.

The main attraction for this year’s event will be an ice-skating rink, located on the grass median on Dune Drive between 19th and 20th streets. We can’t think of a better way to get into the holiday spirit, than to spend a little time out on the ice. Now you can do that right here in Avalon. Adults and children of all ages are invited to come and skate while you listen to holiday music. Skates will be available for you to use.

Other highlights of the day include a caricature artist hosted by Josh and Kim Miller at Ocean Galleries, 297 22nd St. Once again, Bill Albrecht welcomes families for a free game of miniature golf at Avalon Mini Golf, located at 2438 Dune Drive. And don’t forget man’s best friend! Bring your dogs to the Princeton Bar and Grill, 21st and Dune Drive, from noon to 2 p.m. to have their photo taken with Santa Claus.

In addition, there will be bounce houses, located at the Avalon Rescue Squad building, Coldwell Banker and Circle Pizza, and face painters, balloon clowns, holiday crafts and letters-to-Santa stations throughout the business district. Make sure you bring your camera! This year, Mickey and Minnie Mouse, Winnie the Pooh, Cinderella, Mrs. Claus and other holiday favorites will be out and about, ready to pose for pictures. If you need a snack along the way, grab some hot chocolate, s’mores, popcorn or cotton candy. You can also stop by The Preppy Palm, where Rose is turning the store into a lounge (with football games on, of course) for anyone who needs to take a break from the action!

Beginning at 4 p.m., the entertainment moves to the 21st Street circle. From 4-7 p.m. there will be live entertainment. Children can enjoy a magic show and a stilt walker, and get their faces painted while the adults listen to live music. The Cumberland County College Wind Symphony will be playing for the hour leading up to the tree lighting and children from Stone Harbor and Avalon’s Elementary Schools will be singing after the tree lighting.

Following the day’s events, Santa Claus will come to town for the annual Christmas Tree Lighting. Beginning at 5 p.m., he will ride aboard a fire engine to 21st Street and Dune Drive, where he will join President of Avalon Borough Council Nancy Hudanich to light Avalon’s tree. We hope you have made the nice list because once the tree is lit, everyone is invited to pose for pictures with Santa and let him know what you would like to find under the tree this year.

Festive Friday is a terrific event to help get you feeling, well, festive! Why not spend the day shopping for unique gifts, without the stress! Join us for a day of great shopping and fun for the whole family to enjoy.
