SPOTLIGHT ON A NEW NEIGHBOR
Submitted by Joan Dale
Sandie (“with an i e,” as she first introduced herself to me) Campanell
is a very friendly, bubbly new neighbor who bought her lovely house on
Pier Point in 2019. She moved here full-time in June of this year after
her retirement as a pastor for 12 years at West Belmar United Methodist
Church. Sandie received her master’s degree from Palmer Theological
Seminary in Pennsylvania.
Sandie was attracted to this area because she loves being near the ocean,
and her Sunrise Bay home reminds her of the house she built in Glendora,
NJ.
Sandie has two children, a son and a daughter. Her daughter has a
vacation home in Mystic Island which helped with the transition here.
Sandie has five grandchildren ranging in age from 7 to 12.
Sandie enjoys walking with her two small dogs. She also likes to read,
garden, ride her bicycle, and meditate. I happen to know that she is crazy
for cupcakes, too. Sandie joined the Sunrise Bay Activities Committee (when it was still meeting) and, just
recently, the newly-formed Pet Committee.
Sandie would love to have a block party on Pier Point next summer at the cul-de-sac. She’s already got the
music covered, courtesy of the American Legion bands, which she can hear pretty loudly from her backyard
each summer weekend and enjoys.

Christmas and Chanukah Memories
at the Sunrise Bay Clubhouse
Submitted by Mary Salisbury
This photo is from a previous year at the clubhouse
during the holiday. From the very first holiday season
in 2001 the clubhouse has been decorated by the
homeowners. It was a yearly ritual - the men would
bring down the boxes from the attic while the women
would sort through the boxes. Then everyone would
help put the tree together, checking to make sure the
branches were put on correctly and were straight. Then
the real fun began...decorating the tree!
You know everyone likes to do it “the right way” or
“their own way.” However, in the end the tree always
looks fantastic. There was also a huge wreath for the
fireplace and garland for the mantle that the HOA
purchased in 2002. Every year these items are taken
out and, when the season is over, they are carefully put
back. Maybe this is why we have had them for such
a long time?
Of course, we cannot forget the Menorah which
is set up very near to the Christmas tree. A special
“thank you” goes to Jay and Marilyn for tending to
the menorah lights during the holy season. Whatever
you and your family are doing this year make it a safe
and happy time.

Gratitude
Submitted by Margaret Carney
As we approach this Thanksgiving, it appears it will be yet another
challenging year.
I would like to express how appreciative I am of my neighbors here
at Sunrise Bay. Just this past week, my recently rescued dog Maddie
from Texas, bolted from the front door before I could get her leashed. If
you know anything about Jack Russell’s, they have enormous amount
of energy! We walk a few miles each day.
Hans Smith was cruising the hood. Rosemary Davis on Pier Point
called me after spotting her. Susan Dorazio was tracking her. Bill
Galway also assisted in the hunt. Bob Olmeda was the hero finally
getting her in my home and she doesn’t like men!
If I omitted anyone, I apologize. Thanks for all that expressed
concern.
I’ve ordered a quarter board which will be mounted over my garage
door. It will read GRATITUDE, which speaks volumes for what we
all need to practice.

A BLAST FROM THE PAST
Sunrise Bay Country Line Dancers
Submitted by Mary Salisbury
In the early years of Sunrise Bay there was no limit to what new activity would emerge. As I remember,
Jean Howard had been line dancing in Florida before she moved to Sunrise Bay and had all the music discs.
And this is how Country Line Dancing started. We would learn a routine (almost) perfectly before going on to
the next. Lots of fun…especially when the directions were to turn right and usually someone would turn left.
That would start us all laughing and back to the beginning of our song and routine. This is how we learned –
practice, practice, practice. Over sometime a “star pupil” emerged from the group and Carol Ischen became
Jean’s assistant. Over the years Jean retired from teaching us line dancing and we would see her only once in
a while. At this point Carol became our leader. Line dancing continued to be very popular over the years and
two (2) more sessions were added on Monday and Friday at 9:30am.
That is the history of our line dancing group. The photo attached with this article was taken in 2006. We
had heard that Doolan’s Shore Club, located in Spring Lake, NJ, would be hosting a Country Line Dance
afternoon which would include line dancing, lunch and a 1-hour open bar. (Now you know why everyone in
the photo look so happy). It was a great afternoon and a great memory. I know that all the line dancers reading
this now are thinking “when can we line dance again?” Hopefully very soon.
Those featured in the photograph are (left to right standing): Mary Ann, Jo Bulzomi, Carol Ischen, Norma
Mooney, Jean Howard (left to right, seated) Mary Salisbury, Jane Pitt, Cookie Olmeda, Rae Manfredo.
10 December 2020 The BreezeChristmas Shopping
Submitted by Anna Hickman
I love Christmas time! I think of the true meaning as I set up the Stable with the figurines. I decorate my
tree (with help) and love to sit in the darkened room gazing at the lights. I am sad when it’s time to dismantle.
You know what I don’t like -SHOPPING. I never enjoyed roaming around a big department store with
the music blasting and me with my shopping list in my hand and no purchases made. I know what I want and
am never indecisive about purchases for myself. Buying for my four daughters was daunting. Previously I
thought I had made good selections for them. However, I discovered some lovely dresses I had bought for
them, hanging in the closets with the tags still attached. It was a sad awakening to learn that my choices were
not the current style. The girls were 8 to 12 years old and they wore uniforms to school so they needed a dress
or two, tops and slacks or jeans (as I came to find out).
That night at the dinner table I proposed a new method for shopping. I suggested that I take them one at
time to the Mall or shops of their choosing. Since I worked full time, it would be an early Saturday morning
or a Sunday early afternoon. They could select what they wanted, try them on, if necessary and add to the
pile. When they were finished, I would say “go take a walk around the area”. I would go over their choices,
taking out some things I thought were duplicates and keeping the total price in mind. Sometimes we would
have to go to another store. Then we would go out to lunch and enjoy a great conversation just the two of
us. It was a rewarding day and we still talk about those Christmas shopping trips. On Christmas morning as
they unwrapped their presents, I would hear an excited voice say “Oh I forgot all about this, I am so happy.”
Mom was happy too! We did this for many years.

12 December 2020 The BreezeWHAT DO THE HOLIDAYS MEAN?
Submitted by Rick Johnson
Holidays are a time to gather with family and friends.
This year may be a bit different than we are all used to due
to Covid-19. With this in mind, we will still try to carry on
our traditions and improvise on the get togethers. Some of us
will Zoom or Skype, while others will have smaller intimate
gatherings. We can all still decorate our homes inside and out
to show our joy of the season.
A tradition we
have at our home
is that we leave
our Christmas
tree up year-
round. My wife
takes a lot of
time decorating
our tree. Every
ornament must be
perfectly placed,
our kids have
their place on
the tree, we have
our place and our
dogs have theirs.
Through the years
we have given our
children their own
ornaments so they
can put them on
their trees. We
have now replaced them with ornaments for our grandchildren.
Many nights I will go into my den and put on the Christmas
tree lights and sit and reflect on how blessed I am for the many
good things in my life!
If you know of any of our SRB Families who may be alone
during the Holiday Season, please check in on them or better
yet, invite them over if they feel safe doing so or provide them
with a wonderful Holiday Dinner or even just a small gift to
show they are thought of.
Our home is always open so please feel free to join us
to enjoy some Holiday Cheer! Always be safe and healthy!
My wife Kathy and I along with the SRB Board, would
like to wish all our SRB Family’s Happy Holidays!!!

16 December 2020 The Breeze 609-597-7740Little Egg Harbor Township Committee Meeting–
November 12, 2020
Submitted by Jerry Maquire
This was a virtual meeting conducted online on Thursday, November 12, 2020 at 7:00 PM.
Three ordinances were adopted. A bond ordinance provides funding for roadway drainage improvements.
A township code chapter revision addresses violations and deterioration of foreclosed mortgaged property. It
includes registration and property inspection and holds creditors accountable for property maintenance and
security. A 25 miles per hour speed limit and a no passing zone were created for the entire length of Frog Pond
Road. Three proposed ordinances amending the Township Code were introduced. A new code article provides
standards for keeping or raising fowl in residential areas. Another no longer authorizes payment to employees
who waive health benefit coverage, while another amends the alcoholic beverage code provisions relating to
underage consumption on private property, to conform to state law changes.
Fourteen resolutions were passed. The Committee acknowledged review of the internal audit. Procedures
were established for public participation at remoted public meetings. Fund transfers and budget amendments
to include new revenue items were approved. Contracts were awarded for electric vehicle charging stations at
the municipal complex and for community center fence replacement. Several personnel matters were addressed.
These included “use or lose” vacation carryover; accumulated time in a separation agreement; and a collective
bargaining agreement with the PBA awarded through arbitration. Tax refunds, as well as bill payments, were
authorized.
A request for a sewer connection waiver generated much discussion. The matter was postponed to the next
meeting to allow the requesters attorney 30 days to gather additional information.
The township engineer reported tree clearing has begun for a 23-lot subdivision on Railroad Avenue. He
also reported on FEMA efforts to update flood plain maps.
During township committee comments it was noted that planning was being done to move along dredging
projects. Residents were urged to reach out to those coping with the stress of COVID-19 and all were urged to
continue wearing masks. Veterans were thanked for their service, and all were wished a Happy Thanksgiving.
The above is a brief summary of meeting highlights. For more complete information about this meeting
see the article that appears in the Leader newspaper or contact the Committee secretary for a transcript of the
proceedings. Meeting minutes are also available on the Township website.
