Dark asked me to post some threads until he gets back online. There are a lot of volunteer sites on facebook and other places. I was going to try and post some of the ones listed either there or elsewhere. If you have any post up. There are a lot of folks hurting out there. Maybe we can help some of them. I think the biggest obstacle is that a lot of places dont have access yet.

Steve, words cannot express my gratitude for your generosity and unselfishness. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for all you have done while I did not have power or internet access. I asked a few for help. A few rose to the challenge and I sincerely thank all who did. I will be grateful forever. :clapping: :clapping: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

Sea Bright access and cleanup

Sea Bright
Welcome to the website for the Borough of Sea Bright, New Jersey Print E-mail
Breaking News:
[Updated Monday, Nov 12, 2012]

Residents,

As the State Department of Transportation is now winding up its work, the Borough will be re-opening Ocean Avenue (Route 36) to regular traffic (both resident and non-resident) as of the morning of Wednesday, November 14th.

Sea Bright owes the DOT and its workers a tremendous debt of gratitude for their amazing assistance in helping make the Borough fully accessible so soon after the storm.

With the opening of the highway, there will no longer be any check points or other obstacles preventing access into Sea Bright. Entry will no longer be restricted to the Rumson Bridge, and proof of residency will no longer be required.

Although the Borough will be open to all traffic, our Police Department will remain vigilant in patrolling Ocean Avenue and its surrounding neighborhoods to ensure our properties remain safe and secure.

We also wanted to take this opportunity to dispel any fears that the Borough's water supply was contaminated during the storm. Despite rumors to the contrary, we have been assured by American Water that the supply system is fine and our water is perfectly safe to drink.

As always, should you have any questions, please feel free to contact Borough Hall at 732-842-0099 and be sure to report any problems to the Police Department at 732-842-0010.

Thank you again for all of your patience as our rebuilding process continues.

We all help how we can cowherder. I think if each of us did just one thing to help these folks would be in a better place. Its hard to decide which ones to help with the job and family on the plate too. This way everyone could make choices. Some won't but it's that way in life anyway. I know these folks are in a world of hurting now. I wonder what sea bright looks like. It must of gotten hammered.
