Tuesday This & That

Most public schools are re-opening today after what’s commonly referred to as “spring recess” and it’s now pretty much about a 7-8 week sprint to the finish line.
D
espite all that harsh weather in the early part of winter many districts only had to use a few snow days so they are getting out in pretty much the middle of June.
Tomorrow of course is the annual school elections and I will use this time Wednesday to talk about voting on the budget and candidates for the local school board.

The Toms River-Ocean County Chamber of Commerce will honor Ocean County College President Dr. John Larson during Thursday night’s 48th Annual Gala at Eagle Ridge Golf Club’s View Restaurant. Also being saluted will be JCP&L and New Jersey Natural Gas and I will serve as Master of Ceremonies for event as Millennium Radio is a major sponsor. For last minute ticket information you can call the Toms River-Ocean County Chamber of Commerce at (732) 349-0220.

The Manchester Township Educational Foundation is holding their 3rd Annual Golf Outing on Monday, May 16th at Eagle Ridge Golf Club in Lakewood.

Yankee fans at last night’s BlueClaws game got a special treat….General Manager Brian Cashman and assistant Gene Michael were among those in attendance at FirstEnergy Park.
