In Ventnor, Santa arrives by boat

Lifeguard boat, that is.

Pulled, of course, by a Ventnor City Beach Patrol truck.

Matt Farnoly:

You should change the title of your blog to downtheshore because no one in this area says downashore. It looks to me like you think you are being provincial by calling the blog 'downashore' but in reality it comes across to readers as an embarrassment that our local paper does not truly understand our local vernacular and thinks that when we say down 'the' shore that it sounds like down 'a' shore. It does not.

I begin by taking. I shall find scholars later to demonstrate my perfect right. Frederick (II) the Great-

Santa will be here soon!!!

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.
