Today's riddle: Is there anybody completely useless? 🤔 (Answer below!)
1. Why Trash Washes Up On Jersey Shore Beaches (patch.com) — Manasquan beachgoers recently saw garbage and medical needles wash ashore, prompting renewed urgency from Clean Ocean Action ahead of its Oct. 24 statewide beach and park cleanups. The group explains how storm runoff, sewer overflows, and wind patterns push trash onto local beaches, and urges Manasquan residents to avoid flushing plastics, secure their garbage, and promptly report hazardous debris.
2. Shore Sports Insider Football Top 12, Week Four (shoresportsinsider.com) — Manasquan's football team sits at No. 12 in the Shore Sports Insider Top 12 after a narrow loss to unbeaten Middletown North, and now hosts No. 11 Middletown South at Vic Kubu Warrior Field. With a win, the Warriors can jump back up the rankings and stay firmly in the Class B North title race, making this weekend's home game a pivotal moment for local fans.
3. What happened to Wall family after year in Habitat for Humanity home? (courierpostonline.com) — A Wall Township family's first year in their Habitat for Humanity home has brought stability, space, and new opportunities for their children, especially a medically fragile son. Support from the Manasquan Elks Lodge helped them afford an adaptive van, while neighbors and local charities stepped up with equipment, financial help, and a welcoming community that's transformed their daily life.
4. Suzanne H. DeFilipo (starnewsgroup.com) — A longtime Jersey Shore resident who was raised in Manasquan and commuted from town to Red Bank for high school has passed away at 77. Her family invites friends and neighbors to visitation and a service this Saturday in Brick, and suggests memorial donations to the Point Boro First Aid Squad in her honor.
