    <description>LBI Restaurants, Yum! Yum! What more can I say? We ate out a lot while down the shore. We enjoyed delights at places like: Surf City Bakery, Tuckers, Sco-Jos, Kubels, Uncle Wills, Dark Star and more. We even hopped over the causeway to Mud City Crabhouse...my husband is in love with the crab cakes at Lobster Claw (I had lobster cakes that night), while I was totally digging the clams I got at Mud City...clams for appetizer, clams for dinner...mmmm, mmmm, mmmm</description>

    <description>Long Beach Island is my favorite place...it just is. Love it! We spent a week on the Island during May and it was delightful. We stayed at a lovely home in Brant Beach this time, and had beautiful views. Combine that with the nice weather we had, and it was a relaxing week. 

I&#39;m looking at a week in August and a week possibly in October too...I just can&#39;t get enough of this great place, what about you? 

The June Newsletter is coming out next week...are you signed up yet?</description>

    <title>LBI Hotels</title>
    <link>http://www.longbeachislandsummers.com/long-beach-island-hotels.html</link>
    <description>LBI Hotels are dotted throughout Long Beach Island. You&#39;ll find the majority centrally located and on the southern end, though there are a few on the northern side as well. If you were to ask if there are more hotels near Barnegat Light or Beach Haven, then Beach Haven wins hands down. 

On the other hand, if you&#39;re looking for a quieter getaway, the northern side of the island tends to be a bit quieter than the very active Beach Haven and southern end. 

If you&#39;re looking for LBI hotels, simply click the link, and you&#39;ll see a large list of them.</description>

    <title>Ron Jon Surf Shop in LBI</title>
    <link>http://www.longbeachislandsummers.com/Long-Beach-Island-Summers-blog.html#Ron-Jon-Surf-Shop-in-LBI</link>
    <description>&quot;Ron Jon Surf Shop was founded in 1959 by surfing enthusiast Ron DiMenna. Two years later, he opened a tiny oceanside shop in Long Beach Island, N.J. The lifestyle-apparel and board-sports&quot;....was reading a press release about the O&#39;Neill Surf Team Meet and Greet...it was this past weekend. 

Anyway, it got me thinking about the store. Have you checked them out? Did you know they offer an online store also? Check out their Hippy Daze Tye Dye beach towel, or check out their 50th anniversary shirts. 50 years? CONGRATULATIONS! The link will lead you to their online shop.</description>

    <title>Barnegat Light LBI</title>
    <link>http://www.longbeachislandsummers.com/barnegat-light.html</link>
    <description>Barnegat Light will be relit today at dusk! This is exciting stuff. Here&#39;s a clip from the New York Times-(thanks Bill for the article)

From the New York Times:
&quot;With a flip of a switch at dusk on Jan. 1, a new beacon atop the 162-foot lighthouse will once again serve as a navigation aid to passing ships and seafarers.&quot;

Barnegat Light should not be mistaken with Barnegat. Barnegat Light is at the Northern tip of LBI, where as Barnegat is on the mainland! 

In Barnegat Light, you&#39;ll also find Mustache Bill&#39;s Diner, as seen on Diner&#39;s, Drive-Ins and Dives.

    <title>LBI friends, Happy New Year!</title>
    <link>http://www.longbeachislandsummers.com/ocean-temperature.html</link>
    <description>LBI (Long Beach Island) offers a balmy ocean temperature average of 37 degrees in January! I&#39;m looking forward to warmer days and warmer water temperatures, so I can play on the beach again. 

The surfers on the other hand are out there a lot longer than the sun bathers! 

Speaking of surfing, did you know that you can read about: Buying a surfboard 101: with Jeff Santoloci from L.B.I. Surfing Lessons (609-494-SURF) here:

Is this finally the year you&#39;ll take on the LBI surf? 

I know the LBI fishing was hot and heavy, and some big Stripers were caught this year.  &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.longbeachislandsummers.com/NJ-surf-fishing.html&quot;&gt;LBI fishing&lt;/a&gt;

    <title>We Can&#39;t Let This Bank Fail</title>
    <link>http://www.longbeachislandsummers.com/Long-Beach-Island-Summers-blog.html#We-Can&#39;t-Let-This-Bank-Fail</link>
    <description>&lt;img src=&quot;http://www.longbeachislandsummers.com/images/2007logo.jpg&quot;&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;p&gt;
&lt;a href=&quot;http://njfoodbank.org&quot;&gt;The Community FoodBank of New Jersey&lt;/a&gt; is struggling. This year, there&#39;s been an increase as high as 30 percent in a need for food. WIth the economy, and people losing jobs, more and more people are turning to the food bank. The problem is, the foodbank is facing a shortage. The winter time is especially rough, because between people needing food, people are struggling to pay for their rising heating costs. The Community FoodBankof New Jersey needs help. 

Imagine the foodbank having to ration food, or turn people away because there&#39;s not enough food to go around. It&#39;s a grim and scary thought. 

If you&#39;re able to help the Community FoodBank of New Jersey, please reach out and help. Even if you can&#39;t give money or food, spread the awareness, and reblog  this, reaching out to others who may be able to help. Food is a basic need, and if the shelves go bare at the Community Foodbank of New Jersey, that means there will be people in New Jersey going hungry, and that&#39;s just not okay. The foodbank needs the public to step up and help them keep food on their shelves. 

If you can help: www.njfoodbank.org or 908-355-FOOD (3663)

The Community Foodbank of New Jersey (CFBNJ) distributes food and grocery items, helping charities in need. Did you know that since their incorporation in  they&#39;ve distributed 300 million pounds of food and groceries. If you have any questions, you can contact them at 908-355-FOOD (3663).

This year in New Jersey, more than 250,000 new people will be be asking for help. With this increased demand, comes more need for increased donations, but unfortunately, since so many families are struggling right now, donations are actually on the decline. That means not enough food to go around. Empty shelves don&#39;t feed people.  

The Community Foodbank of New Jersey is the state&#39;s key distributor of food to local banks. What happens when there&#39;s not enough food to go around? People go hungry...right here in New Jersey. 

Here&#39;s how you can help: 

You can either make a monetary donation. To do that, you can go to their website at www.njfoodbank.org.

If you have food that you can donate, please bring it to your local food shelter...you can even organize a food drive through work, church or school. (http://www.sefan.org) -for locations

&quot;Check Out Hunger&quot; are coupons you can get at the grocery store. When you&#39;re paying for your groceries, include a donation to the food bank. 

Please take a moment to watch this video:

What can you do to make a difference?

Due to a word limitation on this blog, I can&#39;t list the 100 blogs participating. &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.jerseygirlguide.com/blog/2008/12/15/we-cant-let-this-bank-fail/&quot;&gt;You can see the full list here.&lt;/a&gt;</description>

    <title>Beach Theme Weddings and a Road Show?</title>
    <link>http://www.longbeachislandsummers.com/beach-theme-wedding.html</link>
    <description>Planning a beach theme wedding? I was reading about the details of the Wedding Road Show in LBI during April, and it looks like it&#39;s going to be fabulous.

The Wedding Road Show takes place April 19, 2009. This is one of a kind event, will showcase the area in a way like no other bridal event has. 

Many local businesses will open for the day, just to host upcoming brides and their families, so everyone can take a look at what&#39;s offered. 

Sample food, discuss details, and check out local venues!

Here&#39;s the really cool part...for every venue the bride visits she will earn another entry for the Road Show Grand Prize, a getaway a Williams Cottage Inn, a full course dinner for two at The Gables, a His and Her Massage from Red Sails Salon and $500 check from OceanFirst Bank&#39;s First Home buyers Program

How cool is THAT??? 

Anyone interested in registering for to attend the road show can visit WeddingsOnLBI.com or call the chamber office at 609 494 7211.

There&#39;s also a contest running on NJwedding.com also, so check out the details there.</description>
