In Ventnor, a family's Fourth fun becomes a big-time bash

Inquirer staff writer Troy Graham writes today about a Chester County family that has turned a family affair at the beach into an annual Fourth of July weekend bash. For 30 years, the Sinclairs have come to Ventnor, but the party really started growing nine years ago. These days, it's wondrous and gigantic display of Philadelphia-area traditions - block party and Shore, friends and family, hot food and cold beer. (Photo: April Saul / Inquirer)

The Downashore Team is a group of Philly.com producers. Some of us grew up vacationing at the Jersey Shore, and others came to appreciate it later. Either way, we know our Mack and Manco's from our Prep's Pizza, and we'll do our best to share news, information and musings from up and down the coast. Please do post a comment with your Shore thoughts, or shoot us an e-mail by clicking on the link above. (OK, so we're not really at the beach in this photo, but armed with the power of a good photo editing program, we can dream, right?) We're joined by Inquirer staff writer Amy Rosenberg, who as a year-round Shore resident, knows a thing or two about the scene, and the Shoobies.
