Feldman captures Miss Atlantic County Region crown

Competing in her first pageant, Brooke Erin Feldman of Margate captured the Miss Atlantic County Region title on March 6. She is now eligible to participate in the Miss New Jersey competition in June, which is part of the Miss America Organization.

The competition was held at Folsom Elementary School in Hammonton, where seven women competed for Miss Salem County Area and Miss Atlantic County Region.

Feldman also won the Preliminary Red Carpet Award for her evening gown.

“It is an honor to be selected to represent my county at the Miss New Jersey competition in June right in my backyard of Atlantic City,” stated Feldman. “I am now part of a legacy of intelligent, driven and confident women and feel so grateful.”

Feldman’s Social Impact Initiative is “Serve and Support Our Seniors: Bringing Generations Together.” “One of my main goals for my year of service is to help bridge the gap between generations and give seniors the attention and support that they deserve. They are a population that is often forgotten and isolated, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic.”

Stockton and Atlantic City to host community cleanup and party in the park

Stockton University and the City of Atlantic City will host the first citywide Atlantic City Community Day Cleanup and Party in the Park from 8:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. April 23. The rain date is April 24.

The event, one of the highlights of Stockton’s 50th anniversary celebration in 2021-22, will bring together city residents, local employees, and Stockton students, faculty, staff and alumni to work together and have fun.

The day will start with a cleanup at each of the city’s six wards and the beach from 8:30 to 11:30 a.m. All that hard work will be rewarded with a block party in O’Donnell Park across from the Stockton Atlantic City campus.

“We talked to the neighborhood associations and there was a lot of support for having both a community service component and a party to celebrate the day,” said Stockton Atlantic City Chief Operating Officer Brian K. Jackson. “This is truly going to be a citywide event.”

The event is co-chaired by Jackson, who is coordinating the cleanup, and Noyes Arts Garage Executive Director Michael Cagno, who is coordinating the party.

Stockton President Harvey Kesselman said since Stockton held its very first classes in Atlantic City 50 years ago while the Galloway campus was under construction, it is only fitting that the university hold an anniversary party in the city.

“Atlantic City is where we got our start,” Kesselman said. “We are proud to be back in the city at our Atlantic City campus and invite residents to come join us in the celebration.”

Atlantic City Mayor Marty Small, a Stockton alumnus, encouraged city residents to participate in the day.

“This is an opportunity for all of us to show our pride in our city,” Small said. “It’s always a great day in Atlantic City, and Stockton is making this a very special day for our residents.”

Neighborhood associations in each ward are helping to secure volunteers for the cleanup. Stockton students and employees, area churches, organizations and businesses have also committed to support and participate the event, including ACDevco, ACUA, Resorts Casino Hotel, AtlantiCare, South Jersey Industries, Hard Rock Casino, Orsted, Spencer’s/Spirit of Halloween, Surfrider Foundation of South Jersey and the Special Improvement Division-CRDA.

Jackson said he anticipates more organizations to sign on to participate, with a goal to have 1,000 volunteers on site that day.

The Party in the Park, scheduled to run from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m., will feature food trucks, music, games, a magician, art workshops, a hip hop corner, crafters and community organizations.

Cagno said they are still accepting food vendors, local crafters and artists for the event.

“We want area residents to have the opportunity to share and highlight their talents,” Cagno said. “This is a day for Atlantic City to shine.”

Atlantic City Electric urges customers to secure energy assistance & establish payment arrangements

Atlantic City Electric recently hosted a virtual energy assistance summit to aid customers who continue to feel the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic.

The event provided a forum for nonprofits and other community partners to hear directly from state and industry leaders and energy assistance experts about available resources to support New Jersey energy customers with their bills. The collaborative summit delivered needed information to organizations that work to connect local residents facing hardships with energy assistance options.

“I urge anyone who is behind on their utility bills to contact their utility company as soon as possible to set up a payment plan and to enroll in one of the state’s many assistance programs,” said New Jersey Board of Public Utilities President Joseph L. Fiordaliso. “To help the many residents who face economic hardship brought on by the pandemic, the Board expanded our program eligibility requirements to meet their need. It is critical for everyone who is struggling to pay their bills to reach out for the help that is available.”

Through February, 100,651 ACE customers were behind on their energy bill, 1,136 customers less than the same time a year ago. Of those who are behind, only 18,037 customers have established payment arrangements. Customers must take action to secure available energy assistance and establish payment arrangements.

“We know that many of our customers are facing challenges and we are working hard to keep every customer connected,” said Doug Mokoid, region president, ACE. “Our community partners are on the front lines of connecting our customers with available energy assistance, and we need their support more than ever. There are millions of dollars in energy assistance available and we need to ensure we are supporting our customers in every way possible to get access to that support.”

ACE is committed to keeping every customer connected by offering payment arrangements and helping customers secure grants and other support from many available energy assistance programs.

In 2021, ACE helped 41,578 customers secure $33.1 million in energy assistance. These funds helped customers pay energy bills and requires no repayment.
