The first weekend after Labor Day, the beginning of the so-called shoulder season, will be a busy one in South Jersey. I'd like you to consider being a part of any of the activities which I'm involved this weekend. You have a few from which to choose!

Friday is the 10th annual Movers, Shakers and Difference Makers Luncheon at the Palm Restaurant, in the Quarter at the Tropicana, benefiting Gilda's Club South Jersey.  This year's special guest of honor is former Saturday Night Live alum and Jersey boy, Joe Piscopo. Lunch starts at 11:30am, tickets, if available, at the door.  609-926-2699

Saturday from 1-4pm is the Humane Society of Ocean City Family Fun Day at Playland Castaway Cove, 11th and the Ocean City Boardwalk.  Ride all the rides for only $15.  It's a favorite day of my daughters.  See ya there.

Sunday from 8-10am,  Lite Rock will be on the Margate Beach at Huntington Avenue for the 1st annual "Dune Dash". The 1-mile run and walk with obstacles benefits the Margate Education Foundation. Please join my family out there dashing...or trying to.

Sunday is also National Grandparents Day, and the Shores at Wesley Manor in Ocean City is holding a Family Fun Day to celebrate. Your admission benefits a life fund for residents and includes food, games, entertainment and fun. Join me and Lite Rock 96.9 WFPG  live from 11:30a-1:30p on Bay Avenue in O.C.
