Ice Hockey, The Beach Boy, The Monte Carlo
Pool and.....
|
If I was to say I owned the Boardwalk from the Casino to Loch
Arbor, I wouldn't be exaggerating.
From the time I was a little kid to the decline of prosperity, I
lived every inch of those boards. How many of you can say they
played on the ice hockey team in the Casino during the early
60's or worked through High School at the Beach Boy. How about
all the free concerts throughout the 60's and 70's that the
great AP cops let me into. I'm telling you the memories go on
and on.
How many of you swam in the Monte Carlo pool, rode on the Rock o
Plane or got chased off the boards by the rent a cops for riding
your bike down them in the middle of winter. Better yet getting
chased out of the water for surfing in the middle of winter, go
figure.
First girl, toke, trip...yea....AP Boardwalk was and still is
one of my
greatest loves. I look forward to when I can return to AP and
re-live some of by best years in life.
I hope and pray for a successful re-development.
Yours Truly, Joshua Fink

Hi,
Love the site.
Memories:
My Uncle Joe Kearny and his sister Irene D'Addario worked at Mrs.
Jay's for more years than I can count! So did my cousin Chick
D'Addario.
I - or my brother does - have a picture of me in the Baby Parade in
1942-43? Seems I remember my mom telling me a few times I won it.
Don't know how I would check. Maiden name was Lynne Whitehouse.
What a long ride it was from Union in an un-air conditioned car in the
40's.
Then...come the late 50's and how I remember the guys from Fort
Monmouth and the Ferris Wheel and Fun House....
The mind stays young----only the body ages.
Lynne
