• Army Corps pumps sand onto eroded Jersey Shore beaches (dredgewire.com) — Beach replenishment in Sea Isle City is nearly complete, with the Army Corps pumping hundreds of thousands of cubic yards of sand to widen beaches and better protect homes from flooding. The $21.6 million project, shared with Strathmere, follows severe erosion from recent storms and federal funding delays, and will keep shifting construction zones as crews move on to other Cape May County towns. 
• Kelces' Team 62 Raises Record $1.26M for Eagles Autism Foundation in Sea Isle City (delco.today) — Sea Isle City just hosted Jason and Kylie Kelce’s biggest Team 62 fundraiser yet, turning Ocean Drive and nearby spots into a packed, party-style benefit for autism. The June 24–25 events raised a record $1.26 million for the Eagles Autism Foundation, with celebrity bartending, a Beer Bowl, family activities, and a growing reputation as one of the charity’s top fundraisers.
• Four Species That Make Cameos in the Shallows (sportfishingmag.com) — Anglers in Sea Isle City get a nod as New Jersey’s back-bay flats are highlighted as prime water for striped bass from May through October.
