🙏 Honoring Local Service & Community Roots 🏖️👨‍👩‍👧‍👦
I’ve worked in Emergency Management in this area 🥷🪖and have deep family ties to Avalon and the surrounding community. Several of my relatives own homes here, some were lifeguards and I’ve spent years connecting with both full-time residents and seasonal visitors. It’s a safe, family-friendly place where I’ve come to know many of the lifeguards, public workers, and public safety crew personally — and I continue to meet new people who care about this beach as much as we do.

🚓 We’re also here to recognize and support the entire team that keeps Avalon running — including the Avalon Police Department, Avalon Fire Department 🚒, and the borough’s essential public workers 🧹🚛. Their presence, dedication, and steady work are what make this beach town such a welcoming and secure place for families, friends, and all who visit.

👣 Some of the lifeguards we honor carry on a legacy that spans generations — like Avalon’s legendary Murray Wolf, who I also knew personally who served over 65 years, following in the footsteps of his father and uncle before him. Families like the Glombs, McDonnel's, Sarah and Liam Powell, Katie Scanlon, Alex and many others have made lifeguarding a proud tradition here — protecting these shores with heart, heritage, and deep local roots.

Among those we personally thank:
🏄‍♂️ Matthew Wolf, Chief
🏄 Ryan Black, Captain
🌊 Craig Whitehead Sr., Erich Wolf, Shane McGrath, Ian Keyser, Danielle Smith | Lieutenants
👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Jack, George, James, and Alex Glomb.
Regan, Molly and John McDonnell, Katie Scanlo, Dave, John, Rob, 🛟🏄‍♀️

Plus many others who keep Avalon safe and welcoming.…and the many others who serve the community with heart 💛 — Note we’ll be updating this list in the newest revision of this year’s yearbook.

⚠️ Beach Safety Reminder – Digging Holes
Please be mindful when digging on the beach. Unattended holes can cause serious injury to others — especially at night when visibility is low. Before you leave, always fill in any holes you’ve dug.
🚫 Never climb into a deep sand hole. The walls can become unstable and collapse, creating a dangerous risk of entrapment.
Let’s help keep the beach safe for everyone. 🛟

Let’s make this summer season a good one.
