| Ticket deadline Dec. 3. ****While tickets are available
at the door, we cannot guarantee a present for a child if we don't know in
advance. (And now we're really getting ahead of ourselves-but
please don't put your old Christmas tree or any other branches on the
dunes!) |

Township Engineer Paul Dietrich reports that
about 380,000 cubic yards of sand were lost during our recent nor’easter.
Throughout the beaches about 100-120’ of beach berm was lost. The Army Corp and
the DEP will make a decision in the next few weeks about whether they will fill
beach before leaving the area, according to
Dietrich.

Playground Initiative Nets Results! Your survey
input helped! |
Carol Ferguson of the SFEC, took pix of our badly
deteriorated playground, and Karen Mitchell, CFSWB President, spoke at a recent
Twp Committe meeting about the playground survey results: http://www.shorenewstoday.com/upper_township/strathmere-group-says-playground-neglected-for-years-seeks-repairs/article_5805e688-7da6-11e5-95d6-8f468f9f3c51.html

| As a result...Within days of the meeting, the
rusted chain link fence along the bay was removed, as well as along the sides.
New vinyl fence for the bay side is on order. Certified playground mulch will go
down, swings were repaired, and the sink hole filled. A new handicapped swing
is on order and will be installed on arrival. Karen thanks the Township for
making the playground a "recent priority," but reminds all this "doesn't negate
the need for a complete playground makeover." |
