MAYOR'S MESSAGE

During last week’s City Council meeting, we were very happy to announce the winners of this year’s Beach Tag Art Contest, during which dozens of talented young artists submitted an array of wonderful designs for our 2025 beach tags. It is my pleasure to congratulate this year’s winners: Aubrey Ganster, who drew an umbrella-carrying seagull for our “Seasonal” beach tags; Santino Quercetti, who created a very “cool” snowman for our Holiday tags; Julianna Romano, who’s eye-catching “Irish Turtle” will appear on our Saint Patrick’s tags; and Regan Cunningham, who’s patriotic Bald Eagle will grace our 2025 Veterans beach tags.
