On Deck knows why you’re here

 

By Carolyn Mee

Summer of 2008 is only a few days old, but it’s in full swing here in Cape May County.
Tiger wannabes are swinging their clubs, dancers are swinging their partners, and parents on the beach are swinging their toddlers over the waves.
Lucky for you—you have in your hands the ultimate guide to the best of summer fun, from Ocean City to Cape May Point.
First, the number one reason you’re at the shore: the best beaches around. And what’s the most important ingredient in surfside fun?
Safety, of course. And that means swimming near a lifeguard. Read Carolyn Miller’s story about their challenging training. And watch the video at CapeMayCountHerald.com.
While we’re talking water, now’s a great time for dolphin watching. Jack Fichter went out on the Cape May Whale Watcher to bring you the story of sea mammals that you can see right off- shore. Read the story inside and watch the video at CapeMayCountyHerald.com.
Maybe you’re feeling Italian this week. Perfect timing! Swing on down to the Knights of Columbus’ Italian Festival in North Wildwood. Check the schedule inside so you don’t miss a thing, especially Frank and Maura McKinney Mastro impersonating favorites like Sinatra and Connie Frances.
There’s plenty more music (and dining and dancing) around the county, and it’s all on our What’s On Deck calendar.
If your idea of vacation is shopping (good choice!), you may want to swing over to the Delaware outlets via the Cape May-Lewis Ferry. Maureen Cawley tells you how to snag some great buys–and enjoy the ride.
If you want to treat yourself—and your family—to a heartwarming patriotic experience, go to Cape May Point’s Sunset Ceremony. Karen Cornell took some photos last week.
Or maybe you prefer theater, or history, or fishing, or antiquing. Again, you’re in luck. We have it all.
No matter what you’re looking for, Cape May County has it—and so does On Deck magazine.
