As we head into another busy summer season and call volumes rise, we’re asking all families to take a moment for an important conversation about safety

Please remind your loved ones:
• Swim only in lifeguard-protected areas, and always take a moment to observe the water for rip currents or other hazards before entering.
• If children are out with friends, encourage them to walk facing traffic, use well-lit crosswalks, obey signals, and never assume drivers can see them—especially at night.
• Beach bonfires are not permitted—help us keep everyone safe and our beaches protected.
• Respect for others’ property and belongings is essential in our community.

We all remember being young and wanting to enjoy every moment of summer. Our shared goal is not to limit that joy—but to ensure it’s safe, responsible, and free from preventable tragedy.

Let’s work together to look out for one another and preserve everything that makes our shore community such a special place.

Stay safe, and welcome Summer 2026!
