Hey all, Just wanted to post a comment about Shore Good Donuts in Ship Bottom. Being a fan of theirs on facebook, I read they now have ice cream so I figured I would check it out. I had what they call a donut sundae and Oh My God, it was incredible. I had a Warm Maple Glaze Donut topped with soft vanilla Ice Cream. Amazing taste and texture that you all are gonna have to experience for yourselves. Treat your taste buds and get one, just sayin.

Tin Man, re: Sweet Jennys. IDK what is happening there. When I was on the island in late March went there for lunch and closed. Sign up said renovations (didnt they just open in 2008?!) and be back open on or about May 1st. Well the place is totally stripped and ther eis no sign or sign of work. I have talked to the owner Murph (the Surf!) and he said he bought the building so I'm at a loss as to whats going on there. I liked Sj for its location, prices and food. A great place to hit coming down Friday before everything closed up for the night. I hope it reopens but not having the place ready for Memorial Day for a truncated retail season down there bodes not well for SJs.

Tried some today. Very good. Very much like Marvel's donuts but with topping you select.

I've seen T-shirts advertising The Black Shark. All the years I've been coming to LBI I never found out what it was. Can you help me on that?

I was just in Tucker's and saw a guy wearing that same tshirt. "The Black Shark, since 1984". So I asked him what it was. His answer: I saw the shirt at Breezin Up and I liked it and bought it. In other words he didn't know. Maybe it is just something someone made up.

Dinah's opinion hits the mark for me. Beachy's opinion is weak at best and certainly is not substantiated. Beachy have you patronized the other establishments?

I'm confused on how Shore Good can be "best" and Marvels can be "over rated" when they both seem to be essentially identical recipes (the classic yellow cake style). The only differences are that Shore Good doughnuts are made maybe 30% thicker. But they cost almost twice as much. (75 cents ea VS $1.30, if I remember correctly)

One other difference is toppings. Marvels has plain, powdered, and cinnamon-sugar. Shore Good has those, plus many other gooey icing-like choices. -- which is great if you're, like, nine years old. But those are WAAAAY too sweet for me. (I tried most of them anyway -- yikes!) But the nuts that can be added was a nice twist.

However, for me, I like them best just plain... and hot -- the HAVE to be hot! (You can't let them get cold or they taste like boxed Entenmanns). Since both places can make 'em plain, for me it's a toss-up. So I'll go to Marvels and save the extra money (unless I'm already in Ship Bottom and driving past Shore Good).

One other factor to consider-- If you have kids, there might be another way to choose which one to go to. If the kids are small, go to Marvels. Your little window lickers can press their noses against the glass partition and watch the machine in action as it makes the doughnuts. There is a little step stool so they can get a good up-close view of the dough floating in the hot grease as it follows it's journey to the collection bowl. That's kinda fun. But if they're older kids, that may not be cool enough for them. What IS cool? High fructose sweeteners in large enough quantities to cause convulsions. In that case, take them to Shore Good and get plenty of toppings!

I have to check out the donut place there. Sounds better than Fantasy Island putting ice cream on their funnels cakes for you.

Hi, We will be living in North Beach all summer (June through end of August). I'm looking for an updated directory of classes/activities offered to teens for the summer, such as surfing lessons, pottery/art/painting, beading/jewelry, music, and/or other interesting fun classes to enroll in...however, I've scoured the internet and can't find a summary of classes for teens offered on LBI/area this summer. Please help!!! I have several friends also interested in signing their kids up for classes or activities. I do hope you can post a link...I've even looked in The Sandpaper, but maybe I missed a listing of all classes offered for teens this summer? Thanks, I hope you can help! Susan :)

Hey Dewd, I agree, they are the best. Hey, does anybody know what is going on with the sweet Jenny's building? I heard a Bar & Grill is moving in. I hope someone does cause there are too many unoccupied businesses here in Ship Bottom.

Man, I didn't think my comment would stir up such controversy, I just liked the product very much and I do love when a local business does well. If you don't agree with my opinion.....eh who cares. I came back on here today to post my opinion of BagelEddies but obviously some of you can't handle it so.....later.

The SandPaper publishes a "99 Ways To Have Fun" booklet. Last time I looked there were both good and silly suggestions.

Part 4 (i think Part 3 unedited may post twice sorry!
I remembered finding some listings on activities on a real estate website when I was looking, so I googled and found this: www.maryallen dot com/fun1.html

One thing to consider is that the traffic from North to south can be daunting in the summer. So I would focus regular re occurring activites within a bike ride from your house. Then supplement with trips south i.e to Fantasy Island or Thundering Surf in Beach Haven.
Our entire family treasures our summers on LBI. The kids have friends who are year rounders and they jokingly call the full summer kids "SLOCALS" for summer locals. They might not be year rounders, but they also aren't transient week only visitors.

Part 3 (I warned you it was long):
I also nudged my D to volunteer as it gets a bit schedule challenged in the school year. She volunteered at the Alliance for a Living Ocean.

As a mother of teens, I cannot emphasize enough that finding like minded friends and having a reliable bike are two things that help smooth the transition from their "home friends" to their "summer friends". So I would nudge into some structure, but it would help if they already have an interest (art, fitness, etc).

One other entry into the teen scene is a part time job. Even if not financially necessary, it connects teens to other teens and actually help round out a college application. My college age D was hired for a summer in Washington DC in large part because she already had work experience. Her supervisor specifically told her that she knew how to show up, interact with customers and demonstrate a reliable work ethic. The minimum age in NJ for seasonal work is 14! With restrictions on hours/work environment, but jobs include scooping ice cream, mini golf, arcade attendents etc.

Part 2:
If you will be attending church, you may wish to see if your denomination has a youth group, You probably don't even have to join to participate (I know St Francis in Brant Beach welcomes all denominations to their extensive programs).
The lifeguard programs in various towns have "lifeguard in training" programs open to younger teens through mid teens. Even if becoming a beach guard is not an ultimate goal, they participate in regular fitness training, learn first aid, cpr and get to meet other of their own age. I know two families that signed their fishing obsessed sons up for "Junior mate" programs.

I wrote a pretty long, detailed response, but it was too long, so I have chopped it into sections. Read if you desire:
I am unaware of a comprehensive directory, but if anyone posts one, many others would appreciate it. I am not as familiar with North Beach as I am with the southern end of the island, but if you have purchased a house or plan to return annually, you may wish to look into joining a yacht club on that end of the island. Your teens will meet other teens, most have learn to sail programs and socials, some have tennis as well. North Beach does not have a yacht club, but both Surf City and Barneget Light do (I believe Barnegt Light Yacht Club is actually in Harvey Cedars). Other resources would be the Long Beach Island Foundation of the Arts and Sciences (which also offers tennis and exercise classes), Just Bead It, Loveladies Tennis club. Surf lessons are available, but I am not as familiar and generally would only run a few sessions.

Just Bead it or Paint a Pot - I believe they are both on the island. You can find them both by doing a Google search.

I googled “surfing lessons, Long Beach Island”, and came up with a number of links, like this one; www.lbisurfing.com

As far as pottery/art/jewelry classes, I don’t think there is a really big demand for that on LBI. You’d probably have to go to the mainland for those type of classes.

Your question - hidden in a thread with a different topic - can easily be lost and ignored. I just happened to see it. It should have been asked as a separate question.

As to pools, Google:

"St. Francis Center LBI"

They offer memberships to their pools.

Just saw this. Thanks!

The Sandpaper posted an article and interview about the Exxon Circle site and what the new owner intends to do with it. The owner does not want to reveal his intentions until he submits the final plan to the board. He gave some clues though. Anyone care to solve the riddle? If you're right you will win an honorable, "oooh" from this Bennie :)

Here are the clues provided:

1) NOT Fast Food nor Drug Store
2) "Low traffic impact entity"
3) "Will be aesthetically pleasing"
4) "Create quite a stir on LBI"
5) "It will bring an old-time product to LBI, with new and sophisticated twist"

To some a "problem, to others a "benefit"! ;^D

In the early 1970s we used to go to LBI (and since go for a couple days every year) but we were in our late teens at the time & i remember going to a dance club and having so much fun - it was literally a club (no drinking) with bands and thought it may have been called the "Garage" does anyone remember such a place. Every time i go down there, i try to remember where it was. I believe it was on the left going toward Holgate and on the main drag... would love to know if anyone else remembers it.

The problem with the north end of the island is it's pretty isolated without a lot of dining options, and LBI has no public transportation. I suppose you'd have to call a cab to visit the south end, where there are far more restaurant options.

Plenty of deep water - I draw 5 1/2 feet. As for eating, you have few choices worth visiting within walking distance of a dinghy area. My suggestion would be Viking Off the Hook on Bayview between 19th and 20th. Go to the fleet of red scallopers and ask anyone and they can point you in the right direction. The boat ramp is at 10th and bayview and the street numbers increase as you go south. You may be able to find a place to sneak a dinghy in at 20th st on the grass south of the red scallop boats where the harbor ends. Mention you are going to Viking Off the Hook and you will be fine.

I am very farmiliar with those waters just make sure you stay in the middle of the channels. As for restaurants there are a couple of bar/restaurants in Barnaget light but most of the restaurants you will need a car or taxi to get to.
