As I head into my 15th season of The Sun, it is with a grateful heart that I reflect on its humble beginnings by-the-sea, a nostalgic love letter to the town of Wildwood, NJ, begun by my family, who love this seaside town we call home.
As I head into my 15th season of The Sun, it is with a grateful heart that I reflect on its humble beginnings by-the-sea, a nostalgic love letter to the town of Wildwood, NJ, begun by my family, who love this seaside town we call home. Did you know that today’s Sun by-the-sea is the only paper that virtually writes itself, courtesy of the people who love the Wildwoods as much as we do? Since its inception in 2004, our mission was to create a “people paper.” Over the years, The Sun has become an integral part of the Wildwoods, with each issue overflowing with 100s of photos of the people who live and vacation here. But what’s so amazing are the endless personal stories and ‘Dear Sun’ letters I receive via email and snail mail. . . old photos submitted by the people of this 5 mile island, which have become what makes The Sun such a source of endearment. . . speaking to the heart of everyone who loves our seaside slice of heaven of earth.
I consider my role as editor and publisher both a blessing and a calling. Each issue is lovingly knit and prayerfully woven together over a period of time, making each one a handcrafted, unique creation. Here you hold in your hand pure paper sunshine that’s meant to be savored one page at a time.
As you dig your toes into the white powdery sand and settle into a brand new seaside summer, I hope you’ll thoroughly enjoy the very first 2018 edition of The Sun as much as I enjoyed creating it for you…
Peace, Love & Sunshine
