Greetings from the Sea and Sand Vacationland — Sea Isle City. SIC Boy Scout Troop 76 won first place in the "Sand Dune Derby" during the Baysea District Camp-o-ree held recently at Tuckahoe GamqJJreserve. Sand Dune Derby is a race in which teams of eight scouts pull a "Dog Sled" over a 64-mile course, stopping at six stations along the way where they are required to perform different scout skills. This is the third consecutive year the competition was won by Sea Isle Scouts. Troop 76 also won a blue ribbon for having a perfect score on camp inspection. THE SCOUTS will be very busy locally in the near future. The Sea Isle City Board of Commissioners has been directed by the state Department of

Environmental FTotection to institute a program to inhibit extraneous flows from the sewage collection system. A major consideration is to seal up sewer vents to prevent this flow The board is requesting home owners to seal their sewer vents by inserting an expandable plug. The Boy Scouts will sell these plugs for $4. They will be in the Beach Tag Office 10-3 the next three Saturdays. Scouts will also have a table to Flea Market during "Skimmer Weekend". The Scouts will deliver the plugs upon request, if i residents send names and < addresses to City Hall. Mayor Mike McHale is I embarking on a cleanup I campaign. The mayor has < appointed Mrs. Nancy Gallagher as chairperson. They are seeking and need the assistance of the entire : community. They are ask- t ing for volunteers to act as t block captains. I The Mayor and Mrs. s Gallagher ask you to call City Hall (263-4461) if you wish to volunteer. They are quite sure everyone wants to live on a clean block in a ' clean community, so let's ^ get organized and clean the city up together. Messiah Lutheran Church is having a rummage and bake sale at the church 9 a.m.-3 p.m. Saturday, May 31. The Environmental Commission staged its "Turtle Crossing" Poster contest for 2nd, 3rd and 4th Grade school children last night. There were 95 entries. And the winners are: Grade 4 — Andrea Leonard; Grade 3— Alexa Iannone and Grade 2— Cathy D'Intino. Congratulations, girls! THE WINNERS will receive their prizes, donated by Democratic, Republican and Sea Isle/Townsends Inlet Committees, at next public meeting. Shirley Burns promises more news about Turtle Project in near future. Just what we needed: another cliffhanger. Well, no suspense here. It is Hydrangea Festival time again. This custom originated in Atlantic City more than 25 years ago and spread to communities down the coast as far south as Wildwood. The local Hydrangea Committee chairperson is Helen Kelly. She reports committee will kick off the local campaign with a plant sale in the Community Center on Memorial Day Weekend. She plans the usual judging of gardens

and plantings by the local committee with prizes awarded in five categories. THE LAST several meetings in town have really been lively. I mean last week's commissioners meeting and the meeting of the planning board attended by the commissioners and representatives of the state Department of Environmental Protection. The scarcity of water, overabundance of sewage, Minmar Project and development have been most discussed topics. Speakers, including local officials, have been eloquent and persuasive. There is no suspense in these discussions. It is easy to discern where the various speakers are "coming from". THE PUBLIC school students and faculty participated in a really worthwhile project. Mrs. P«t Hurley, the librarian, started a collection of just "pocket money". The

<3 students purchased a U Rand/McNally World Atlas H and sent it to Concord High S School in Concord, N.H., in J memory of Christa McAuliffe, the Teacher in Space. Last week the School received a warm "thank you" note from Charles Foley, Concord's principal. Doesn't that make you feel food? Marybeth Town. R.N., of Burdette Tomlin, is conducting a mini -CP R course at St. Joseph's School for 7th and 8th Grade students. She is assisted by Marybeth Schuster. R.N. This is a cooperative effort. Burdette supplies the Instructors; St. Joseph's the students and the locale ; the Red Cross, the instruction booklets; ana Dennis - Township Rescue Squad the material After completing the course, the students are not certified CPR practioners but they are familiar enough with the procedure that they would be handy to have around in an emergency. Our youngest daughter, Joanne, says, "Your readers know our ages and weights; what's next, height?"
