When beaches thrive, so do the people who rely on them.

Beaches support mental wellbeing, protect communities from coastal storms, provide jobs, and bolster local economies. If we protect beaches, beaches protect us. Say #YEStoBeaches and the communities they support by signing the @americancoastalcoalition petition:

A huge thank you to Ted Kingston for providing these fantastic photos to help us share our message.

Yesterday the Upper Township Committee gathered with members of the Cape May County Open Spaces Grant Board led by Cape May County Commissioner Liason Bobby Barr for the ceremonial ribbon cutting for the newly updated Tuckahoe Train Station through their Historic Preservation grant. This facility was selected by the Cape May County Open Space Review Board for replacement of the cedar shake roof as one of their support projects. This newly replaced roof will keep it going for many years to come for our community.

The $72,000 grant commitment was a great assistance for the improvements needed for this historic site. Commissioner Liaison Barr spoke to the attendees on behalf of the Open Space Board and Cape May County affirming the continuing investment from the County with these grants in its communities.

The Tuckahoe Train Station which resides at 31 Mill Road was built in 1894 and hosts events like themed train rides through the Historic Preservation Society of Upper Township. In recent news the Tuckahoe Train Station and surrounding railways were used in Steve Spielberg’s Disclosure Day (currently in theaters).
