a.    CMA has filled two Saturday nights.  On July 14 the Ultimate Queen Tribute will be held in the Great Auditorium.  Among their hits are “Fat Bottomed Girls” and “Tie Your Mother Down.”  In July 28 they will have “The 2018 Blowout Concert.”  As far as we can tell, this event features Lecrae and Andy Mineo and is a Hip Hop concert.

b. Summer Stars on Thursday July 12 brings the Solisti String Ensemble.   Great event is a bargain. oceangrove.org.

c.  Bizarre situation.  The short term rental alliance which previously complained about an ordinance that Committeewoman Carol Rizzo said doesn’t exist,  complained  in the Coaster on June 28,  and then  again at the July 9 Committee Meeting about the same nonexistent ordinance.

They fear that the Township wants to put them out of business with a new ordinance, but the Township denies that such an ordinance exists or is being written.
