Quote of the Issue:

It is surprising what a man can do when he has to,
    and how little most men will do when they don't have to.

A WORD OR TWO FROM ME
by Karen E. Jarosz
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Welcome to our summer editions! I know summer doesn't officially start until the 21st but with so much going on at the Shore we decided to get a jump start! So for you the reader that means getting the Bulletin every Monday in June, July and August! That way you can plan a fun outing every week to get out and enjoy the Shore! Don't forget to take along someone you love to make it twice as fun and let me know if you particularly enjoyed any event!
Until next week, find a few minutes to relax and just get quiet
Karen
