🌊 This Weekend Down The Shore: June 21-June 23
Events and Live Music: May June 21-June 23
Top of the mornin’ ☀️
I have one quick update and then we’ll hop into events for this weekend.
Based on your feedback, we’re going to keep everything within one email — no more clicking into “Full List of Events and Live Music”. The emails will be big so you will have click “view entire message” at the bottom of the email to see everything but this will be a one stop shop.
I let my ADHD get the best of me on that switch up 😅. Now it’s back to our regularly scheduled programming.
Thanks again to all of you who read this every week and provide your feedback. I’ll see you there! 👋
