a. From citizen reporter Polly Carl:
Perhaps you already know about a possible available alternate badge design. On a recheck of www.oceangrove.org/badges on a page titled “EARLY BIRD Here’s how to get your 2021 Season Badge”, I now notice the representation of a badge with three horizontal stripes of which the top and bottom are green and the center white. On the top green stripe are the words “OCEAN GROVE” and on the bottom green stripe the word “SEASONAL”.
Am inquiring as to whether that design now is available. It was not when I inquired before.
Here is an example from 2017:
b. Individuals aged 65 and older can call a special senior hotline at 856-249-7007 from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. for vaccination scheduling support. Dedicated appointment slots are reserved for those aged 65 and older. Appointment availability and scheduling varies by location.

Thanks Polly Carl for your reporting. Paul
PS: Jersey Family Fun site lists a Bradley 2021 daily at $10, and Senior tickets sold out. Interested parties should verify.
As per an internet article on 2021 Bradley Beach badges: Adults $70 until 4/1/21 (regular $80). Junior 13-15 & Senior 65 & up, $30, same price all year. Daily price not listed.
Shredded a check after arriving home from the OGCMA Office today. When I asked to see the beach badge before placing a beach ticket order and handing over a check, I was not shown the green and white one seen online. Was told it is a generic representation so the badge cannot be copied.
I inquired about the daily badge/wristband. Another OGCMA related person thought that the daily would be a different color and symbol each day.
Though not probable because of days with inclement weather, at $10.00 for a daily, could it be that the possible cost in dollars of the 2021 season on the Ocean Grove beach could exceed $800.00 per person if one is not willing to carry a cross?
Editor’s note: I found 10 random prior season badges since 2000, and none had a cross except for a tiny cross as part of the Great Auditorium. That depiction of the GA is totally appropriate because it is an iconic historic building in town.
But the large cross that was portrayed on the 2021 season badge is another story. It is part of a clear progressive pattern of the CMA promoting religion through abandoning secular concerts, year round religious programming, advertising and marketing, etc.
If it is true that a person must pay $10 for a day badge, the OG beach will become unaffordable for families.
Perhaps Polly could tell us about prices at Bradley’s beach.
