Yearly Newsletter

   We want you to know how much we appreciate your coming to stay with us over the past ten years at Inn at the Park; so many of you have become extended family and this is so important to us. We are thrilled that you enjoy Cape May as much as we do! If you were pleased with your stay at Inn at the Park, please share your experience on www.tripadvisor.com.

    Our best wishes to you and your family for a year filled with peace, love, HOPE, good health, and laughter. We invite you to "come home" to Inn at the Park; we always enjoy your visit.

    This summer we hired our second American college student as chamber person and gardener. Hurrah! Our Turkish worker arrives in June for inside work and painting and pruning outside. We still have Gertrude from Uganda for our year-round help.

    Jay also had some Turkish help with his painting and pruning this summer.

Cape May Issues

   We encourage all of our guests to write to Gov. Christie and members of the NJ Legislature to voice your displeasure with the continued additional, unfair 7% room tax and 7% sales tax levied on B&Bs, hotels & motels, but not on guest houses, apts. or whole house rentals, which are rapidly replacing historic B&Bs here in Cape May.




Upcoming Wine Dinners

   Our series of Wine Dinner Weekends continues through 2010. At the Inn, enjoy a civilized escape from your routine!
   In addition to our usual amenities, each Wine Dinner Weekend includes a Saturday evening dinner with a "chef's choice menu" featuring Jay's extraordinary cuisine and selection of fine wines.

Inn at the Park Highlights

This spring, we had two red-wing blackbirds born in our wisteria, which had the best blooms in ten years. I guess the harsh winter was great for wisteria.

We repaired the cracked plaster in Sancerre Suite and repainted the entire suite.

We added some new screen doors to the Champagne Cottage and St. Julien.

Because we lost our spruce tree in February on Madison Avenue, we had some work done on the destroyed sewer line from the uprooting of the tree. We added some privacy photinia and a flowering plum.

Note: Found during spring gardening and housecleaning: ankle bracelet, dangle earring, and Kodak digital camera.


Family Highlights

- Since January, Anne and Peter lost their black lab shadow, and Maria and Tim lost Yuri the cat and Petunia, our first grand dog. All daughters and families are fine.

- Jay is battling a joint problem since shoveling and being without heat for five days in February.

- Mary Ann is completing her second year as president of Cape May Historic Accommodations. She still enjoys tennis at the nearby courts.
