SIA Newsletter 6 22 11 - The Fourth of July Parade Is Coming!


To all Strathmere and Whale Beach Homeowners and Visitors,
Get your floats, wagons, bikes and trikes ready for the Fourth of July Parade!  
The parade is less than two weeks away, so get your ideas working and get those floats and bike decorations ready!

The parade will begin at 10:30. Registration will be at the Firehouse at 9:30 and judging will take place in the various north end streets at 10:00 am.
As always, awards and refreshments following the parade will be at the Deauville Inn.



Strathmere caps ($15) and insulated bags ($5) will be available for purchase before and after the parade to benefit the SIA.




Both items are currently available at 212 Bayview Drive. Call 263-6846 to be sure we're home.

Thanks to everyone who has sent us their dues payment. Remember, it's just $10 per adult family member, and you can send it to SIA at PO Box 57 in Strathmere.


The Strathmere Improvement Association includes all owners and many visitors to Strathmere and Whale Beach. It was founded over 50 years ago as a community organization with the objective of making Strathmere a better place. We are proud of the organization's many accomplishments over the years. The dues and fund raisers provide for, among other things, funding the Fourth of July Parade, and our share of the Christmas Party. In the past, we've also donated money to help pay for extra State Police protection. If you have adult children or relatives (or visitors) who visit Strathmere, please forward this message to them - perhaps they'd like to be members and receive these e-mail messages also.

You can contact us by responding to this e-mail sia6@comcast.net  or by mailing SIA at PO Box 57 in Strathmere.



Thanks to all for your continuing support!
