An end-of-summer farewell and hats-off-to-retirees party is being planned for Friday, Aug. 29 at the Barnegat Light Pavilion, with a live concert by The Danksters, members of which hail from the borough. Mayor Kirk Larson raised the topic at the caucus meeting on Aug. 13.

The tentative start time for the party is 5:30 p.m. – BYOB. Larson said he envisions hot dogs and other picnic food.
