Hop to the beer, with a side of pretzels

Hop to the beer, with a side of pretzels

by Cindy | Mar 27, 2025 | Atlantic County, Cape May County, Editorial, Features, Letters from the editor, South Jersey

Letter from the editor This weekend marks the return of one of my favorite annual events — the Atlantic City Beer and Music Festival. That may surprise those who know me well, since I don’t actually like beer. But hear me out — there’s so much more to this festival...
Embracing the changing seasons

Embracing the changing seasons

by Cindy | Mar 20, 2025 | Atlantic County, Cape May County, Editorial, Features, Letters from the editor, South Jersey

Letter from the editor Spring has arrived at last! After months of cold, blustery days, the warmth of the sun on our skin and the sight of tulips and daffodils emerging from the earth feels like a long-awaited reward. There is something about this transition that...
The luck of the Irish—or lack thereof

The luck of the Irish—or lack thereof

by Cindy | Mar 13, 2025 | Atlantic County, Cape May County, Editorial, Letters from the editor, South Jersey

Letter from the editor This weekend, we set our clocks ahead—an unmistakable sign that spring is just around the corner! For me, this is a game-changer. The worst part of winter isn’t just the cold; it’s the early sunsets. Darkness creeping in before dinner cuts short...
Nine years in: Embracing the journey

Nine years in: Embracing the journey

by Cindy Fertsch | Feb 27, 2025 | Atlantic County, Cape May County, Editorial, Letters from the editor, South Jersey

Letter from the editor If there’s one thing life has taught me, it’s that the best paths are often the ones we never planned to take. I remember my first yoga class in 2015, feeling completely out of my element. As I struggled to hold a pose, the instructor said,...
Spring is coming — and so is the St. Patrick’s Day Parade!

Spring is coming — and so is the St. Patrick’s Day Parade!

by Cindy Fertsch | Feb 20, 2025 | Atlantic County, Editorial, Letters from the editor, South Jersey

Letter from the editor With each passing day, we inch closer to spring. In just 18 days, we “spring forward,” gaining delightfully longer evenings. The official start of the season is still 29 days away, and Memorial Day is 98 days out — but who’s counting?...
