Verse of the Week: [Jesus said,] "Whoever wants to be my disciple must deny themselves and take up their cross and follow me. What good is it for someone to gain the whole world, yet forfeir their soul? Or what can anyone give in exchange for their soul?" (Mark 8:34b, 36-7 New International Version Bible) posted May 10, 2013
Felix Cavaliere's Rascal will not be performing this summer. The Rascal's Broadway show was so successful they have other commitments they now must honor. We hope to have Felix back next summer. Performing with Tommy James & The Shondells will be Jefferson Starship doing all their big hits, "Somebody to Love", "White Rabbit", "Miracles" and many more.

Special thanks to employees of the American Fence & Flag company of Whitehall, PA who volunteered to restore fencing, replace boardwalk decking, remove sand and so much more. See their inspiring video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JGYWkAVYH6I. The generosity of the American Fence & Flag company is an example of how each of us can come TOGETHER to make a difference.
