Lucy the Elephant has been a regular fixture in Margate City for over 140 years now. As you can imagine, a lady that old needs a bit of a facelift, especially after facing the Jersey Shore weather for so long. But these things cost money. In March 2020, three lucky people won one-night stays when Lucy acted as an Airbnb for the first time ever. In February 2021, the Save Lucy Committee again partnered up with Airbnb. One extremely lucky couple spent Valentine’s Day that year as Lucy’s special (and only) guests for the evening. In September 2021, this Jersey Shore landmark began her makeover. Originally, they expected this to last 10 months and cost $1.3 million. Now, 14 months later, repair costs now come in at $2.3 million. In an effort to raise the additional $1 million needed to finish Lucy’s transformation, the Save Lucy Committee is hosting a benefit concert at the Super Star Theater in Resorts Casino Hotel AC.

Lucy the Elephant Benefit Concert
For one night only, Dean Martin’s talented daughter Deana sings holiday songs and her father’s classic tunes along with her very own 18-piece orchestra. Fun fact: Dean Martin and Frank Sinatra both performed in the Super Star Theater many years ago. Singer Steven Maglio performs his version of Frank Sinatra’s tunes on stage as well. This is a night you definitely won’t want to miss!

Margate Holiday Food Drive 2022
Just a quick reminder. The Margate Homeowners Association and our local Jewish Family Services accept food items and non-perishable goods for their Margate Holiday Food Drive outside Casels Market on Sunday, November 13th from 10 am to 2 pm. While you shop inside, grab a few extra items and simply give them to the volunteers located just outside the doors on your way out. This small gesture will make a world of difference for local families and individuals in need this holiday season.
