SEA ISLE CITY – The Cape May County Library Commission is well under way with the new Sea Isle City library.  Work on the state of the art $5.5 million library is expected to be completed by June, 2011.  The Sea Isle City Branch of the County Library System, located on the open site at 4800 Central Avenue, is the first Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) Silver rating county facility to be built.

The new two-story facility will be 13,583 square feet with two exterior decks totaling 1,380 square feet. The building will consist of large and small meeting rooms to house a variety of library programs and community functions and provide wireless internet for patrons.

The building will also be home to the Sea Isle City Historical Library.  The facility will have a roof area over the first floor meeting room designed to handle 198 solar panels and high efficiency mechanical and lighting systems. Utilities will be metered to analyze usage and a geothermal system is being installed. Also, recycled building materials, LED site lighting, low water use fixtures, and native plants will be included.  Additionally, all materials will be purchased from within 500 miles of the site to promote local growth.

The park off 42nd Place in Sea Isle City saw mixed results its first two years, owner Jay Gillian said.

The park brought in only slightly more revenue in 2010 than its opening season in 2009 despite being open nearly a month longer in 2010.

“The first two seasons were learning experiences,” Gillian said. “The signs are good. We’ll get by, but it’s been tough. We’ve had two tough seasons to really roll out an amusement park.”

In the first year, rain delayed construction and pushed back the grand opening in June 2009 nearly a month. In 2010, the hot weather may have discouraged amusement park riders, he said.

“This will be our tell-tale year,” said Gillian, who is also the mayor of Ocean City.

Cape May Rips on the Sea Star III

I decide to take off Sunday and go Striper fishing for the first time this fall.  The Sea Star III out of Cape May with Capt Bob Schumann and First Mate Chuck left the dock at 9AM.  We ran out of the Cold Springs Inlet about 3 miles and drifted.  We picked up a couple of good size Blues and decided to run the line down the beach.  After a few long drifts through the rips the Captainheaded across the bay toward Delaware.   We picked up a short and after no action headed back toward Cape May.   Made our last drift off the Cape May Lighthouse and 15 min before we pulled lines to come it I landed my first Striper of the season.  It was a great day to be fishing.
