Ah what’s all the fuss. Only maybe 25 or 30 drunks roaming the town during and after the festival.
“Doherty had refunded Shore Point’s $10,000 fee ..”
$20,000 or $10,000 ?
I heard $20k
I read ad re-read 20k. What difference does it make!
Well 5k to promote Beach Hauselt brew is pretty cheap don’t you think? Any money trail to follow for preferential treatment by the administration?
So the new beer guys all paid $5K, when Shore Point was going to pay $20K – so the town lost $15K in revenue over this???
Even more profit for the new vendor.
Now matter what the cost….. he had to have his beer
You couldn’t pay me to go down there in that mob scene.
looks like 200,000 weekend visitors is the target nuisance tolerance test for Belmar residents …. guard your property …. lock your doors …. and forget about parking on the street.
Is 200k visitors the close the Boro down goal?
Ugh, chaos ahead. I avoid north belmar that weekend. Prayers to the homeowners there.
South End = Spring Lake Annex.
Will we be able to escape to The Norwood in Avon to listen to the Bobby Byrne show or will they close the bridges to keep the dreaded varmits in Belmar?
Does HOMELAND SECURITY have special deployment plans for the New Jersey Seafood Festival being held in Belmar this coming weekend???
I’m thinking barricades all over Ocean Avenues, Bridge Access restricted, no backpacks for the 200,000 people the mayor expects to attend?
People- there is no way 200,000 people come to the seafood festival. That’s a stupid number Doherty always comes up with. Think about that for a minute- MetLife Stadium holds 75,000 people. 3 times that many people at the seafood festival ? No way possible.
It seems to me that the mayor wants to create a panic in the residents, making it painfully obvious that he does not care about them, just wants publicity for himself. How about a petition to end future seafood festivals in Belmar?
For the parade they literally shut the town down w baracades and prevented parking everywhere. Total overkill by a nervous paranoid police chief. Will they be doing the same. Shutting down blocks of roads. No parking in town. Abc enforcement everywhere in flak jackets and ready for war. Residents told they can’t move for three days bc of crowds and roads closed? Think about it The parade brings about ten thousand people tops and it was Fort Knox.
Let’s wait and see before we go off the deep end with this. My thing is the new bar at the Marina. I don’t see there being enough parking for the attendance. People are going to be trying to cross Rt35 and that is a tough light at 10th and 35. you’ve got to really time it to get across in time before the light changes, and understand the turn patterns in all directions. It’ll be interesting but let’s not panic.

The event belongs at Monmouth Park.
I know homeland security is working the Spring Lake 5 mile run this year.I need to improve my time.
#20 – “homeland security” – Lord help us. Things are bad enough here without those idiots running amok adding to the chaos.
The military equipment on the beach at the 2nd Avenue beach can be a command center for the mayor and his little soldier, Colleen!
Or the Cruz Bay Cafe with binoculars and beers.
Councilman Magovern, I know I just live in an apartment, but 5 days of looking at this out my window, four tractor trailers!
The seaford carnival has gotten too big.Please move the carnival to a bigger town like, Asbury Park.
Who needs a beer tent when you drink underage at the beach and leave your empties and litter everywhere
The Headline: BEER @ NJ Seafood Festival. Not SEAFOOD, NOT Ocean, Not Sand. Not, oh ah, No Parking. Just Dirty, stinking potapotties from BEER BASH affectionatoes?
Go to the Taylor Pavilion to pee and wash your HANDS so you can possibly eat. Disgusting but true. Considering the bugs all around, human or otherwise, who would want that level of contamination. Call Board of Health so you can WASH YOUR HANDS.
Today’s coast star seafood festival parking at the marina are they sh????ting me
Tom – you are correct. I drove toward Belmar from Neptune last evening and the road is so poorly lit, those crossing to get to Marina Grille could hardly be seen. Pedestrians crossed at the 8th Avenue light, where left lane traffic also turning onto 35. God help someone not wearing bright colors. I predict a serious accident before Summer Season ends.
#24 – did you see the beach this evening. Before 6pm it was trashed!!!! It’s been over 80 for 3 days. No cans on the beach, those on the boardwalk were overflowing. STAY AWAY from 7/11 it’s disgusting. Teens/young adults STANDING on tables. No management or police presence anywhere at the beach or Ocean Av at all? BELMAR LOOKS DISGUSTING. How bad does it have to get???
Seafood festival suggested by Rutgers to encourage the local seafood businesses to encourage the seafood sale of their products. It was never the intention of the Belmar Chamber of Commerce to turn into a beer party as the administration is so interested in promoting
The borough signage at the marina is a major distraction, in fact a dangerous and hazardous distraction so much so that pedestrians may be overlooked crossing a major highway lured by the Borough of Belmar as business invitees to their property at the marina.
#28 Matt Doherty has brought Seaside Heights to Belmar.
#30 AGREE …. the Marina signage is “Texting While Driving”
