MAYOR'S MESSAGE

Even though Christmas 2023 has come and gone, the holiday season is still going strong. Next-up on many of our agendas is New Year’s Eve, which is always a great time to be in Sea Isle City!

If you have not already done so, please be sure to make your dinner reservations as soon as possible if you plan to dine-out in Sea Isle City on New Year’s Eve – and don’t forget to welcome 2024’s arrival by viewing our annual New Year’s Eve Fireworks Show, which will be launched from the JFK Boulevard Beach on December 31 at 8:00 PM.

Since the holiday season is a perfect time to recognize what we are all thankful for, I would like to express my gratitude to some of the people who made the past two weeks extra-special…

CITY COUNCIL'S MESSAGE

At the start of our December 26 meeting, City Council and the City’s Administration honored the players and coaches from Upper Township’s Recreation Football Team, who won the Cape Atlantic Junior Football League Championship on November 26. The young athletes, who are in the 7th and 8th grade, had an undefeated year (10-0); and we were very happy to pose for pictures with the champions and their coaches – including their Head Coach, Sea Isle City Police Chief Anthony Garreffi.

Shown below are members of the Upper Township Football Team being honored
