WASSUP? Ocean Grove

—-With all the heat and rain, mosquitoes will be breeding like crazy. Make sure that there is no standing water on your property; not even tiny amounts

 

—OG fireworks will be held on Saturday, July 27 at 9:00 pm.  Come to the beach for a rare event.

 

—Letter from OG resident:

Dear Neighbors,

According to many major publications and housing experts, dryer lint caught in the dryer vent system is a significant cause of home fires.

Recently, a local company performed professional dryer vent cleaning for us, and we were amazed at the findings: a bird’s nest behind a closed vent; a screen cap inside the vent to catch the lint, and the lint was so balled up that air couldn’t get through, and we found loads of lint in the vent lines where owners were seasonal as well as full-time residents.

Considering OG’s history of fires and the potential for more, we urge all homeowners to clean the removable filter after each cycle and to have their dryer vents professionally inspected and cleaned regularly.

Please, feel free to share this information with others.

 

 

—Ocean Grove Citizens Patrol will end operations after 29 years.   This is an official statement:

“The OGCP was solely funded by the generous residents of Ocean Grove through the yearly fundraiser.  The OGCP has actively tried to recruit new members as the number of dedicated volunteers has been dwindling.  Support from local officials has not been as strong as in previous years which prompted the Executive Board to decide that the OGCP has served it’s mission purpose of citizens protecting citizens.  Read more in the Coaster.

—Stephen Froias, well known to readers of the Ocean Grove Record and the Tri-City News has been commissioned to write a series about Ocean Grove history in the Coaster, starting today, July 17.  He lives in Massachusetts now, but that is not holding him back.
For those interested in OG history, do not miss this series.
—Bridgegate:  No there there!  As predicted, Bridgegate has been proven to be an airless fake news issue.  The Coaster, after 3 consecutive front page articles, does not mention Bridgegate in today’s 7/18 issue.
Presumably the Mayor of Neptune is still engaged in some sort of secret hot-air conversation with Asbury Park dingbats.  So we probably will still hear more from the Neptuners who, ironically, are representing Ocean Grove in some useless talks to make the Asburians happy.
But really, we should defer to the Neptune Police Dept. which has been dutifully locking and unlocking the gates every day, protecting us from criminals as it has done for many years.

    Cindy Bell, quite a favorite, is the most effective conductor of the event.
    Her caring “teaching” style is evident throughout.
