Politics is about people. One of the greatest joys I get from being Mayor of Wildwood is the opportunity to get out of City Hall to support various initiatives that are all about people. Here are just a few of the events I attended in June.
Cape May County NAACP put together a meaningful Juneteenth Festival in Whitesboro. I was honored to be a part of such an important event.

Fish for Life is a 501c3 program that takes special needs children fishing. This day 30 special kids, chaperones, a literal boatload of volunteers and a few other dignitaries from the Wildwoods climbed aboard the Atlantic Star for a fun-filled day.
