You talk about bad timing. I do a segment yesterday on how we don’t have real winter weather any longer and we get snow showers and brutal low temperatures. Somebody sent me an email wondering if I was in Florida when I wrote the piece. In truth I did do it in advance because I had to take yesterday off as my daughter needed to have her wisdom teeth removed.
However what we are now experiencing will not last long and we should be above freezing by early next week.
What you do see during bitter cold mornings like this one is people warming their cars up. While that is a good thing after the first minute or two you are only doing it for your comfort as your car only needs a couple of minutes to get the oil going. Also when you go to start your engine there is no real need to pump the gas like we used to do with older vehicles.
A couple of random notes heading into what is a holiday weekend for many:
Southern Regional High School will hold its 19th Annual Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony this Sunday from 3-7pm at the Holiday Inn in Manahawkin. This year’s inductees are Rich Beverley, Melissa Boyda, Lori Citarella, Sean Crawford, Dan Hall, Curt Walters and coaches John Bihlmier and Roy Librizzi. Also going into the hall will be the Rams 1997
Wrestling team which won a state sectional championship.
Tom Farrell announced earlier this week that he is stepping down as the head football coach at New Egypt High School after seven seasons. This comes three months after Farrell was appointed principal of the school. He coached the Warriors for seven seasons and in the last two they qualified for the state playoffs. Farrell previously was an assistant coach at Monmouth University and the head coach at Monsignor Donovan where his oldest son plays and now he’ll get to watch him on the weekends.
A small correction in regards to the dinner on February 6th at the Tropicana Hotel in Atlantic City to honor recently-retired Brick Township High School football coach Warren Wolf. The dinner will start at 5:30 and not 5pm as I reported earlier in the week. Those interested in attending can contact Brick Township High School Principal Dennis Filippone at (732) 262-2500 or Lacey High School football coach Lou Vircillo at (609) 709-5303
