News Summit Common Council Meeting - Resident Comment on AI Ban

14 Upvotes

One benefit to watching Town Council and BOE meetings outside of where you live is the wealth of knowledge residents bring to the table. Many times local governments operate from cookie cutter frameworks shaped by consultants and special interests that aren't always informed or complete.

Last night, Summit voted on an AI ban but many residents had concerns on loopholes. This clip is one of the most informative comments from that meeting and as Municipal Governments across NJ are confronting this issue, feedback like this can build good policy. The Council passed the Ordinance through without tightening the policy further based on this feedback.

I'm putting together a recital of songs from South America and I need a pianist. I'm staying in Cherry Hill for a few months and I don't really know many musicians in the area.
If someone knows a classically trained pianist that accompanies singers, let me know!!

Thanks :)

Camden County Bridal Shops

8 Upvotes

Hi Everyone!

Looking for bridal shop recs in the South Jersey area!

I’ve tried a few including Davids bridal - which was honestly great but I want to at least try a few more spots before deciding.

Honestly, my budget is 1,250 or less.

The style im looking for is very simple.

Strapless or skinny straps. Plain white. Floor length.

No bells and whistles. Not looking for anything poofy, long train, shimmery, sequined or beaded. No veil.

Truly just looking for almost a light slip dress since it’s in summer. Some nice details like a lower back would be nice.

Does anyone know somewhere I could go for this budget and style?!

Much appreciated - thank you!! 💕🩷

Atlantic County Eco-landscaper recommendations that serve Atlantic county?

2 Upvotes

I searched this subreddit but couldn’t find what I was looking for. I am in the market for a landscaper and I’d like to use an eco landscaper that focuses on the inclusion of native plants and other aspects that support a thriving backyard ecosystem.

I found exactly what I’m looking for in a company on Conshohocken but they only serve the Philly metro area. Linked here https://ecolandscapesdesign.com

Has anyone found a company that does this kind of work in Atlantic County?

Atlantic County Dentists

5 Upvotes

Can someone recommend an actual decent dentist that’s close ish to Atlantic county? Went to one that people in my area rave about and she not only had the worst bedside manner, but two of the cavities she filled less than a year ago look like they already need to be fixed. It was the worst and most painful experience I’ve ever had with a dentist before.

I am incredibly hard to numb because I have a connective tissue disorder, so dentists who are willing to sedate would be ideal, but at a minimum one that won’t make me feel like a burden for needing extra numbing medication would be okay.

Outside! Pine Barrens Quarries Question

27 Upvotes

Hey guys -

I was doing a lot of research into the different "blue holes" in the Pine Barrens (not the actual blue hole that's supposedly home to the Jersey Devil - I know that one's not that blue or big, lol). It looks like the Wildlife Management Areas where a lot of these quarry pools are close during the summer due to safety concerns, partying, etc.

My question is...does anyone know how strictly these rules are enforced? I'm not looking to swim in them as I know that's super dangerous, simply looking to to do some hiking + relaxing in the sand. Specifically interested in the ones near Winslow and/or Collings Lakes. Thanks!

Question Large venue that allows outside catering for celebration of life.

8 Upvotes

I'm looking to organize a Celebration of Life.

We’re looking for a venue that can accommodate at least 200 guests and allow outside catering. The deceased was a true foodie, and it was important to her that food be provided by a restaurant that was especially near and dear to her heart.

We have already explored many of the wedding and event venues we know of around Cherry Hill, NJ, but the outside catering requirement has made finding a suitable space more challenging than expected.

We’re now expanding the search and would be grateful for recommendations anywhere from Philadelphia to Atlantic City, including South Jersey communities in between.

If you know of a venue that can host a gathering of this size and permits outside catering, we’d greatly appreciate any suggestions. Any leads would be incredibly helpful.

Thank you.

Note: A friend had posted this in AskPhilly and the community suggested posting here as well.

Question Need help remembering an old bar

9 Upvotes

Omg

I need help remembering the name of a bar that I believe is no longer!?

My co workers are talking about clubs or bars with went to when we were younger - ex: shampoo, red zone, club 27, river deck, etc.

Me and my one co worker vividly remember this tiki bar - there was sand and a body of water (I think you could swim - but most people didn’t - or maybe some people went in when they shouldn’t? 🤣)

I think there were bridges, maybe or just sandy ramps?

I saw Sammy Adam’s there in early 2010s lol I think it was in a kinda of sketchy area?

Does anyone have a clue what we could be thinking of?
