tlantic City and the 2014 Miss America Competition want you to DO AC free! Aside form the “Show Me Your Shoes” Parade, the Competition Preliminaries and the Finals, Atlantic City is offering other free activities for everyone to enjoy. The Road to the Crown Walking Tour is a free tour open to the public. Tours begin in the lobby of the Sheraton Atlantic City Convention Center Hotel. With each step, Miss America’s history will unfold, revealing how it became a world-renowned competition. Walkers will enjoy a shoe bar, dress display, historical video and the Miss America Rose Walk. There will also be an opportunity to be “crowned” by longtime pageant host Bert Parks while the tour continues through the Tea Garden adjacent to the Sheraton’s front entrance, which features a bronze state of Parks himself. Road to the Crown Walking Tour maps will be available at the Sheraton. Boardwalk Hall will also be home to the new video booth, which is also available to the public. The booth makes possible for visitors to record their favorite memories to share on social media networks. The booth can be accessed during Boardwalk Hall hours. If you’re still with us on Monday, Sept. 16, 13 international artists will be transforming Indiana Avenue into a public art gallery during the DO AC 3D Chalk Art Festival, which will run through the 22.

n Sunday, Sept. 15, the Atlantic City International Triathlon, aka “TRI AC,” returns to the Jersey shore for the third year. This year, the Atlantic City International and Sprint Distance triathlons are returning with three different courses available to appeal to the fitness levels of a wider variety of athletes. The International race, the most enduring of the three, will consist of a one-mile swim, a 20-mile bike and a 10K run. The Sprint Distance course will involve a quarter-mile swim, a 10-mile bike and a 5K run. The last of the three races, the Aquabike, will have a one-mile swim and a 20-mile bike, appealing to the athlete whose weakness, or foe, may be running. The race will begin its course in Atlantic City’s back bay; the bikers will then proceed to bike the Atlantic City Expressway and those who will be

racing in the A.C. International and the Sprint Distance Triathlons, will finish the last leg of their race on the Boardwalk. Due to the diversity of each race, TRI AC gives athletes of all shapes and sizes the opportunity to compete. Stephen Del Monte, founder and CEO of DelMoSports, Inc. is extremely excited for the event. “The third annual TRI AC is presented by Revel and is going to be a celebration of health, wellness, and everything grand Atlantic City has to offer,” he says. “In only three short years, the TRI AC has become one of the region’s most popular triathlons as it continues to attract athletes from the Mid Atlantic region. Our partnership/relationship with the AC Seafood Festival continues to grow as we work together in creating the ultimate family weekend.” Saturday, Set. 14, athletes will arrive between 1pm and 4pm for a race-course briefing with Del Monte. Sunday’s itinerary can be found online at acweekly.com.

fun event is happening Sunday, Sept. 15, on the A.C. Boardwalk that could help some of our furry fourlegged friends find a home, and another is scheduled for Saturday, Sept. 14, that will help shoppers join in the fight against breast cancer. Sunday’s event is a partnership between Trump Taj Mahal and Lite Rock 96.9 called “Beauty and the Leash.” The canine beauty-and-talent competition kicks off on the Boardwalk in front of the Taj starting 2pm (1pm registration). Dogs of all breeds will compete in four categories: bathing suit, talent, look like your owner, and on-stage question (bark on command). Winning dogs in each category will receive a “Bone and Biscuit” bouquet and crown, and the winning owners will get $250 in cash. Additionally, the Humane Society of Atlantic County and Ocean City will be on hand to showcase dogs for adoption. Pet lover and Lite Rock 96.9 DJ Eddie Davis will emcee the event. Visit hsacpet.com or hsocnj.org for more info. On Saturday, the 20th annual Tanger PinkSTYLE Campaign will take place at Tanger Outlets - The Walk, and other Tanger locations throughout the nation will host similar events until Oct. 25. Shoppers can purchase packs of five Tanger Pink Cards for $5, each of which earn shoppers 25 percent off single items at participating Tanger stores. Shoppers may also visit tangeroutlets.com to purchase a $10 unlimited-use Pink Style E-Savings pass of 25 percent savings on single items. Pink Card proceeds will benefit the Breast Cancer Research Foundation. “Tanger is proud to join with our retail partners and our customers in a team effort to put an end to this terrible disease of breast cancer,” says Steven B. Tanger, president and CEO of Tanger Factory Outlet Centers. “Our goal is to help raise funds for critical breast cancer research that will bring forth prevention and ultimately a cure.” Heather DeLuca of SoJO 104.9 will host A.C.’s event from 11am-3pm Saturday.

ix days down, one more to go and I can say I’ve had a great festival with several Oscar prospects, a wonderful selection of intriguing cinema from around the globe and just a few stiffs. Two movies that are guaranteed to earn some serious Oscar attention are Steve McQueen’s brutally honest depiction of slavery in America, based on a true story, 12 Years A Slave, and writer-director Alfonso Cuaron’s lost in space odyssey Gravity, featuring a tour-deforce performance by Sandra Bullock. These two films couldn’t be more different, one savage in its look at the true brutality of treating human beings as property, the other visually stunning use of the 3D format as a true art form. We are finally going to have to learn how to pronounce the name of the amazing British actor Chiwetel Ejiofor (Choo-it-tell Edge-ee-ofor) after he earns his first Academy Award nomination as Solomon Northrup, the free man kidnapped and sold into slavery for the 12 years of the title. The brutality of the film is necessary to truly illustrate the agony, physical pain and humiliation of Solomon being ripped from his family and tossed into this vicious world. Beyond the brilliance of Ejiofor, there is an amazing performance by Michael Fassbender, who holds nothing back in portraying the relentless evil of a slave owner whose lack of humanity is horrifying. Gravity, in stark contrast, shows us the silence of space in conjunction with a spectacular accident that creates a catastrophic cascade of events that leave two astronauts floating in space with what seems like no chance to survive. Sandra Bullock has to convey her terror, and eventually her courage, from inside a space suit and does do quite effectively and in Oscar-worthy fashion. Meryl Streep might shock some of her fans with her performance as the foul mouthed and mean spirited matriarch in August: Osage County. This story, based on the hit Broadway play by Tracy Letts, is about a Midwestern family with numerous secrets and lies. The performances are superb (joining Streep and Julia Roberts are Ewan McGregor, Chris Cooper, Julianne Nicholson, Margo Martindale, Abigail Breslin, Juliette Lewis
facebook.com/ACWeekly @acweekly
and Benedict Cumberbatch). I spent three hours at a screening watching a work-in-progress, a film in two 90-minute chapters called The Disappearance of Eleanor Rigby: Him and Her. It is a look at a marriage on the rocks due to the death of a child. In the assured and emotionally compelling hands of James McAvoy and Jessica Chastain, it is a beautifully realized look at the grieving process with just the right hint of humor around the edges. The great supporting cast includes Ciaran Hinds, Nina Arianda, Viola Davis, William Hurt and Isabelle Huppert. The love story with an edge, Words and Pictures, starring Clive Owen and Juliette Binoche directed by Fred Schepisi, is terrific. Owen plays a dedicated high school English teacher with a drinking problem; she’s the new art teacher whose own painting has been hampered by crippling arthritis. It’s a love story that resonates with more wit and substance then the average rom-com. Can A Song Save Your Life is the latest effort from writer, director, musician John Carney, best known for the musical Once. This film has that same Once vibe with lots of fun music, street scenes in New York and a plot about a songwriter (Keira Knightly) who is dumped by her boyfriend (played by Maroon 5 frontman Adam Levine) when he makes it big. She meets a down-on-his-luck music producer (Mark Ruffalo) and they begin to work together to create her debut album. It’s a lovely slice of musical life. The fabulous Judi Dench has the title role in Philomena as an Irish woman who was forced to give up her baby as a teenager by the nuns who essentially ran a baby brokerage. She teams with a journalist (Steve Coogan, who also co-wrote the screenplay) in this “based on true events” film from Stephen Frears. It’s both moving and funny. I also liked the film Giraffada, a movie based on true events that uses the kidnapping of a giraffe to illustrate in a loving, understated way, the human cost of the Palestinian-Israeli conflict, and Dom Hemingway, an over-the-top British gangster comedy that features an outrageous and enjoyable performance by Jude Law in a change-of-pace role. ■ see more online @

SEPTEMBER 12 - 18, 2013 • ATLANTIC CITY WEEKLY
S
outh Jersey’s own Kate Shindle knows what is involved with being a part of the Miss America Organization as well as the challenges and rewards of being Miss America. During our interview on Aug. 31, 2013, Shindle, as always, was her warm, lovely self, engaging and, as always, willing to entertain questions on just about any subject. Katherine Renee Shindle, who prefers “Kate,” was crowned Miss America 1998. While attending Northwest University, she entered the Miss Illinois competition and won the crown of Miss Illinois 1997. Competing in the Miss America Competition in Atlantic City, N.J., as Miss Illinois brought her back to her roots. Raised in Moorestown, N.J., which is just 57 miles from Atlantic City, the Miss America Competition was no stranger to Shindle, and now she was back home with family and friends, in her comfort zone, to participate in the pageant she had watched as a fan and spectator as a teenager. Shindle has some definite thoughts on the competition returning to its home in Atlantic City. “I think the return offers a new opportunity for a classier setting that will once again provide the elements that attracts the best American young women to Miss America,” says Shindle. “I attended the pageant a couple of times when it was in Las Vegas, but I have to tell you now that it is back I think it will be wonderful. I am not sure if it is one element like the parade that
facebook.com/ACWeekly @acweekly
“It has always seemed somewhat of an oddity to me that the competition that attracts the best and brightest young college women was run primarily by elder men, although that now seems to be changing.” will make the difference; I believe the pageant belongs to Atlantic City and that the Las Vegas people just couldn’t understand the passion we had for it.” In discussing the changes that have taken place within the Miss America Organization, including the installation for the first time of a woman president (Sharon Pearce) at the helm, Shindle stated:. “It’s time for a woman president, not just any woman for the sake of having a woman president, but certainly if it is the right woman. Sharon has been an active representative of the Miss America Organization and has put in her time learning the requirements of her job, and she knows how to do it well. “It has always seemed somewhat of an oddity to me that the competition that attracts the best and brightest young college women was run primarily by elder men, although that now seems to be changing.” Since returning to Atlantic City the Miss America Organization appears to have hit
the ground running, and has a firm grasp on bringing everything together. Under the guiding direction of Sam Haskell III, CEO and chairman of the board, and Pearce as president, the parade and other events are all scheduled and moving forward. “During my reign, I had differences from time to time with Leonard Horn,” says Shindle. “However, I consider Leonard Horn a visionary. He understood the best way to get the culture and media to respect Miss America was not to merely put a young woman on a pedestal. In fact, he tried to knock the pedestal out from under Miss America to make her more of a representative who belongs to the public.” Shindle was one of a group of Miss Americas who became known not just for their beauty and intellect, but for their understanding of the need for Miss America to use her popularity and visibility to become, in Shindle’s words, “a social agitator.” “In my era, 90 percent of what we focused on was a real public issue, and it was really
powerful. I didn’t have to walk into a dinner party, speaking engagement or a school and make something up out of thin air. I was there and talking about things that mattered to the world and I always had that to rely on. I always felt as if I was showing the world how relevant Miss America could be and that I was making an impact” she says. When Shindle was out speaking on behalf of Miss America her focus was always on HIV/AIDS awareness and education. As an outspoken AIDS activist, she has raised tens of millions of dollars for AIDS and other organizations. Her knowledge on the subject was and still remains very valued and she was a participant and chaired a conference session at the World Health Organization in Geneva, Switzerland. Still true to her beliefs, she says that “because of the advancements we have made, my time now is spent more on the fundraising level.” Shindle’s first CD in 1999, Christmas to Come, featured the Chicago Jazz ensemble and raised money for the National AIDS Fund and to promote AIDS Awareness. Since that time Shindle has gone on to appear on Broadway in hits such as, Legally Blonde, Cabaret, Jekyll & Hyde and Oliver. She continues to be a very sought after actress and singer. Shindle keeps herself very busy between her acting and various other interests, “I now try to do only those things that make me happy, so I can enjoy going to work everyday, which is where I am right now,” adds Shindle. Kate Shindle is very passionate about everything she does, from being Miss America to being a passionate advocate for AIDS activism as well as her acting and singing career. However, her friends and co-workers will not hesitate to tell you that she is a loyal friend, who above all is a compassionate, intelligent woman with great insight who has always been willing to work hard to achieve her goals and remain true to her values. ■ see more online @
While in Atlantic City to tour Boardwalk Hall this past spring, the reigning Miss America spoke with ‘AC Weekly.’ By Donald Kravitz • feedback@acweekly.com

Hagan moved to New York in 2008 from Opelika, Alabama. According to Hagan she had always dreamed of competing in and hopefully winning the Miss America Pageant (which has been renamed: The Miss America Competition for September 2013). When asked how she would describe herself and what she might say to those whom may never have had the opportunity meet
Throughout my visit people have been saying to me, ‘Welcome Home!’ I am looking forward to being here and participating in the pageant especially the Boardwalk Parade.” As her reign winds down, Hagan says she’ll miss being Miss America. “Well, I will miss it I am sure,” she says. “It is an honor and pleasure being Miss America and representing the Miss America Organization and [it] has opened up count-

t had been 30 years since New York has had a contestant win the title of Miss America until 24-year-old Mallory Hagan had the crown placed on her head by Laura Kaeppeler, Miss America 2012, last year. Having competed against 52 other contestants to win the title, Hagan recalls how she felt “at that moment” in an interview with Atlantic City Weekly. “At that moment I was completely shocked and overwhelmed,” she says. “I thought they had made a mistake. I believe I said, ‘Oh my God’ and ‘thank you.’”
“Do all you can to make your dreams come true. I am a good example of that.”
less opportunities. I will always remain a Miss America and I will always be a part of the program.” Before she gives up her crown in September, is there anything she has not done that she hopes to do in the future? “Yes, meet the president and first lady,” she says without hesitation. “That would be awesome!” Hagan attended the finals of the Miss New Jersey Pageant, held in Ocean City at the Music Pier in June, as well as other Atlantic City-area sites and events over the past several months. n

her, she pauses and says: ”I would quote something I heard said by Joel Osteen and believe very deeply — ‘Do all you can to make your dreams come true.’ I am a good example of that.” Winning Miss New York opened the door for Hagan to bring local focus to her cause of Child Sexual Abuse Awareness and Prevention. Now as the reigning Miss America Hagan has a national audience to make the public aware of her cause and extolls that “we must stop it now.” Since becoming Miss America 2013, Hagan has had a busy schedule. The usual appearance agenda has Miss America traveling about 20,000 miles a month, which on its own can create problems. “I have been very lucky,” she says. “I think I have made it through the winter months without flight cancellations or delays. So far it has been great.” A major opportunity for Hagan since becoming Miss America 2013 is her involvement with the Children’s Miracle Network, the Miss America Organization’s official charity. “I love being able to visit the hospitals and spending time with the children,” she says. “They are such an inspiration to me, I just love being with them. “I had an opportunity this week to visit Atlantic City and to see Boardwalk Hall.

Maplewood II Makeover
Maplewood II
Fabulous new look, same sensational food and some new delicacies at Joe Italiano’s Maplewood II in Mays Landing

ince opening as a humble Hammonton tavern in 1945, the Maplewood name has grown to become synonymous with elevated Italian cuisine, served along with, to quote their own legendary roadside signage “The World’s Best Spaghetti.” Founded by Joe Italiano Sr., his son and namesake took over the kitchen after returning from serving overseas in the Korean War. Channeling family food traditions, the now-octogenarian Joe, Jr. did more for the image of Italian-American cuisine locally than anyone else we can imagine — including the creation of truly spectacular white seafood sauces, virtually unheard of hereabouts. His son, third generation owner and operator Jim “Jimmy” Italiano, recently put his own personal touch on this standard-bearer of southern New Jersey restaurant brands, via a complete revision of Mays Landing’s Maplewood II. Founded by Joe Jr. in the early 1980s, Mays Landing’s version was a little different than the original, housed in an older building inherited from another restauranteur. After successfully squeezing themselves into the cramped quarters for more than 30 years, Jimmy pulled the trigger this past April on a long anticipated project he labels “Like a rehab — almost.” He goes on to say that it was “a gigantic project just to get open, due to the age and condition of the building.” All of which meant a brand new, much larger parking facility, completely renovated interiors — including a sweet little bar with seating for about a dozen — a stone-ringed hearth fireplace in the dining room plus many new appliances for the kitchen. Crucial throughout this nearly six-month
“We think our customers will be pleased at what we’ve done — and the quality of the food and service will remain high.” process was family friend and general contractor Joe Continiso. Having helped the Italiano family in Hammonton with a variety of small jobs, Jimmy Italiano asked him to take on this massive one along with Philly-based interior decorator Jane Reynolds. A longtime customer from when she used to work at Kessler Hospital, according to Italiano, Reynolds helped select the soft wood tones that now permeate throughout.

The third leg of Italiano’s team was longtime Hammonton employee chef Jose Montalvo, brought in to provide some updates to the bill of fare. Now don’t panic, all you veteran Maplewood diners out there, you’ll still be able to enjoy classic pastas like the eponymous Joe’s Special — shrimp, crab, mussels, clams and scungilli in a choice of red or white sauce; their famous broccoli and shrimp; or our personal crave, Uncle Nino’s special, laden
with lobster, shrimp, Dungeness crab and clams (pictured). But you’ll also encounter a few newer items, tested and perfected in the Hammonton mothership. Among them will be veal arugula, cavatelli Franco tossed with shrimp and crab in a garlic-andchopped tomato basil sauce, classic veal scallopine, and a retro Italian dish, tripe in tomato sauce. Slated for re-launch Friday, Sept. 13, this new Maplewood has been a long time coming for the humble, soft-spoken Italiano. “I feel like I went from being a project manager to getting back running a restaurant,” says Italiano. Most members of his staff will return after the hiatus, ensuring a continued level of service to match the brilliant cuisine. With seating for about 100 between the now-spacious dining room and that aforementioned bar —where patrons are free to order food as well, formerly a wellkept secret — his expectations are huge for the just-enhanced property, and he expects the same reaction from patrons. “We think our customers will be pleased at what we’ve done,” he says, “and the quality of food and service will be remain high.” Italiano allows himself a tiny smile after nearly completing this lengthy ordeal. With well over half-a-million bucks invested, it is indeed a long-term venture. But for southern New Jersey’s first family of Italian restauranteurs, nothing less would be acceptable, or expected. “Tell your family we’re open and ready to roll,” says an enthusiastic Italiano. “We’re also waiting for you.” ■

SEPTEMBER 12 - 18, 2013 • ATLANTIC CITY WEEKLY
A
fter eight years wandering through the Nevada desert, Miss America has emptied the Las Vegas sand from her shoes and has finally come home. And while she couldn’t foretell the future 43 years ago, folksy pop singer and songwriter Joni Mitchell may have best summed up Miss America’s return in her 1970 hit “Big Yellow Taxi.” “Don’t it always seem to go, that you don’t know what you’ve got ‘til it’s gone,” Mitchell sang. When the 53 contestants competing for the title Miss America 2014 made their debut during a Sept. 3 Boardwalk arrival ceremony, hundreds of pageant faithful, the majority of whom had local zip codes, greeted the women with a great big collective hug. Gone were any feelings of bitterness and abandonment many felt in 2005, when the Miss America Organization — strapped for cash and without a network TV contract — asked city convention officials to be released from the final two years of its contract so it could seek a less-costly venue from which to stage its nationally television competition. After 84 years in Atlantic City, Miss America pitched its tent on the Las Vegas strip, where the show originated from the Planet Hollywood casino’s 6,000-seat event center — half the size of Boardwalk Hall — and was televised on lower-tiered cable channels. But with eight years of hindsight and retrospect from which to draw, it’s apparent Miss America had to leave Atlantic City in order for it to return. “For [Miss America] to have left and then for it to come home, there is this wonderful renewed sense of appreciation for not only

With eight years of hindsight and retrospect from which to draw, it’s apparent Miss America had to leave Atlantic City in order for it to return. the history, but for the fabric of what it is,” said Sharon Pearce, president of the Miss America Organization, who spent more than two decades as an advertising and public relations executive for several Atlantic City casino companies before initially joining the Miss America Organization as its communications director. Sharing the Boardwalk spotlight with the 53 contestants at the arrival ceremony were many of the public and private agencies and organizations whose collective efforts brought the competition back to its birthplace. Even politicians who really don’t like one another sat in close proximity and smiled, most notably Atlantic City Mayor Lorenzo Langford and New Jersey Lt. Gov. Kim Guadagno. Langford has been a frequent critic of Guadagno’s boss, Gov. Chris Christie, ever since he established a tourism district in Atlantic City and stripped some home rule away from Langford and the city’s governing body. The brief love-fest didn’t escape Pearce’s attention. “To look out into the audience and see all of our friends and family and members of our business community coming together for this wonderful celebration and homecoming was a heartwarming experience,” Pearce said diplomatically. “Those who are really working so hard to rebuild the tour-
ism aspect of Atlantic City will understand that the Miss America contestants and the Miss America Organization have fully embraced every opportunity to be partners with Atlantic City ... and to share that with the country is very exciting.” *** Miss America’s back story has a humble but well-intentioned beginning that actually dates back to 1920. That year, a group of local business leaders, eager to extend the summer tourism season beyond Labor Day, organized an event known as the Fall Frolic and held it on Sept. 25. There were all sorts of events that day, including a Boardwalk parade of rolling chairs carrying pretty young women. The following year, the event was streamlined down to a single event that had already proven itself popular crowd-pleaser. Eight women from eight cities as close as Ocean City and as far as Pittsburgh competed in the Inter-City Beauty Contest. With contestants obligated to reveal their measurements, history has recorded that Margaret Gorman, a skinny and flat-chested (30-25-32) 16-year-old from Washington, D.C., was awarded the $100 grand prize and actually won two competitions: the InterCity Beauty Contest and the Atlantic City Bathing Beauty Contest, since she had to appear in the flapper era’s extremely mod-
est swimwear. The following year, Gorman returned to Atlantic City to defend her title. But there was a snag. Washington, D.C. had already chosen another girl to represent the nation’s capitol. Sensing the publicity value in having the reigning queen return to the Boardwalk, contest organizers let Gorman enter, but condensed her two titles into one. Gorman didn’t retain her crown, but the title that was hung on her did manage to stick around. Margaret Gorman, and all the women who would follow her to this day, was known as “Miss America.” There was no television to bring the contest to a mass audience outside Atlantic City. It remained a largely regional event until 1925, when it was first broadcast on a five-year-old invention called “radio.” Television didn’t enter the picture until 1954. But due to the efforts of Atlantic City’s well-oiled publicity machine that relied heavily on “ocean, emotion and lots of promotion,” the event — which came to be known as the Miss America Pageant — grew in size, scope and national appeal. It’s weathered its share of scandals, criticism and shocking moments. In 1951, for instance, newly-crowned queen Yolande Betbeze refused to pose in a swimsuit and caused a major sponsor to pull its advertising support of Miss America and create the Miss U.S.A. pageant. In 1967, Miss America indirectly helped the women’s liberation movement gain traction. Members of the small but radical group of feminists burned bras and other items associated with women on the Boardwalk and attempted to disrupt the national television broadcast, thus attracting the attention of the national media. But arguably the most shocking moment came in 1984 and not only resulted in the first and only resignation of a reigning Miss America, but also helped launch the career of the most successful entertainer to emerge from beneath the crown. Vanessa Williams, the first black Miss America, was forced to resign in 1984 in the wake of a nude photo scandal. But Williams went on to become a successful television and movie actress and a singer who’s been nominated for 11 Grammy Awards. And her Miss America replacement for the 47 days until Miss America 1985 was chosen was also black — first runner-up and Miss New Jersey Suzette Charles, who was from Mays Landing. see more online @

Still, the crown has been a sturdy one and has endured for 92 years. Although the Miss America Organization fell on hard financial times in recent years, it remains the world’s largest scholarship competition for women.

Free entry, the freshest seafood, beer sampling, live music and family friendly festivities — what more could you ask of the A.C. Seafood Fest? By Ray Schweibert • feedback@acweekly.com
A
mped up from its inaugural appearance at Bader Field last September, the Atlantic City Seafood Festival is part of a trifecta of special events this weekend that also includes the allied Atlantic City Triathlon, which has its start-finish line at the Seafood Fest, and of course the resort’s eminent return of the Miss America Pageant. The Seafood Fest will take place rain or shine Saturday (10am-7pm) and Sunday (10am-6pm), Sept. 14-15, and, thanks to a grant from the Casino Reinvestment Development Authority, admission is free to all attendees. Along with fare from over 50 participating restaurants and food providers, there will be crafters, interactive displays, a chowder cook-off, mixology seminars, a cigar tent, wine pairings, kayak rentals and kids activities. A beer-tasting tent will offer samplings from several in-state breweries (Cape May Brewing, Flying Fish, N.J. Beer Co., River Horse, Turtlestone, and Tuckahoe breweries), where participants 21 and over can purchase 10 tasting tickets for $10 (each sampling two ounces). Good Time Tricycle and event organizer Jon Henderson — probably best known as the man behind the Celebration of the Suds, A.C’s annual beer-and-music festival returning next spring for the ninth year — has, as usual, brought in an all-day slate of live performances by local and regional bands. One of the groups is a killer reggae ensemble called The Burnsiders that has performed at many area establishments throughout the summer, and is in the 2-3pm Saturday time slot at the Seafood Fest’s centrally located stage. The seven-person group includes lead singer Jay Burnside Sr., female backing vocalist Jay Farmer, drummer Jeff Burnside Jr., bassist Ty Turner, guitarists Boul Fortune and Frank Calletta, and keyboardist Daryl Robinson, the recently retired band director and music teacher at Atlantic City High School. “We all enjoy [reggae] but everyone comes from all different backgrounds too,” says Calletta, a math teacher in the Vineland School District. “Jeff and I have been in other reggae bands before, Jeff and Darryl are currently in a jazz trio with [trumpeter] Eddie Morgan [performing Friday, Sept. 13, at Kelsey’s in A.C., 7-10pm], and Jay Farmer and Ty Turner both perform with
a couple of other groups as well. But this is the only gig we have going that’s strictly reggae. We might throw in a little R&B here and there but it’s always to the form of a reggae song.” Other groups playing the Seafood Fest include the Exceptions, the Dane Anthony Band, the Rising - Bruce Springsteen Tribute Band, and Torn ‘N’ Frayed. Teaming with the A.C. Seafood Festival is the third annual Atlantic City Triathlon, which features an international-distance event incorporating a one-mile swim, a 20-mile bike and a 10K (6.2-mile) run that starts 6:45am Sunday, Sept. 15, at Bader Field. It is a USA Triathlon sanctioned event. A mini triathlon or “sprint” race consists of a quarter-mile swim, 10-mile bike, and 5K (3.1-mile) run, and new this year is an “Aquabike,” which will be a one-mile swim and 20-mile bike only (no running component). The Triathlon organizer is Stephen Del Monte of DelMoSports Inc. Says Henderson: “Last year Steve Del Monte and myself agreed that since we’re launching the Seafood Festival and he’s bringing back the Triathlon for the second year, let’s work together, let’s partner, let’s utilize this space — it creates a celebration for his athletes, it brings more people to the Seafood Fest, it was kind of a no-brainer. We agreed the Seafood Festival and the Triathlon had a great synergy.” “We were able to grow [the triathlon] fourfold from year one to year two,” says Del Monte. “We were able to blow this event up and put it on the map. We are on the national map as a top vacation-destination race in the United States, and that was unprecedented for a second-year event.” “Between the Triathlon, the Seafood Fest and Miss America, it’s the perfect trifecta,” adds Henderson. ■

*** When Sharon Pearce signed on with the Miss America Organization in 2006 as its acting communications director, she never expected that seven years later she would become its president. But that’s what happened several months ago following the abrupt resignation of longtime president Art McMaster. “It’s an incredible privilege at this time in my life to be able to be part of the return to Atlantic City, and to be working ... handin-hand [with Sam Haskell] as we take this organization in a different direction, really to the next chapter,” Pearce said. “We are excited about the future of this organization ... and taking our mission and our message, which is promoting education, to the forefront.” As a New Jersey native and a longtime casino executive, Pearce feels a sense of personal and professional symmetry with Miss America’s return to its birthplace. “I’m a [New] Jersey native, so growing up with Miss America was always something that was part of the fabric of my family,” she said. “But also having spent over 20 years in the casino entertainment industry, I would always remember the annual return of Miss America and looking at it from the casino marketing side. So to be home this September and to really look at it from a very unique perspective, and have it come full circle for me personally, has been such a joy.” ■
Thursday, Sept. 12: • The final Competition Preliminaries will be held at Boardwalk Hall from 8-10:30pm.

MONTH 00 - 00, 2013 • ATLANTIC CITY WEEKLY
*** Miss America’s move to Las Vegas resulted in a number of changes to the competition. For starters, there was no parade down the Las Vegas Strip. The smaller venue also meant there was no room for a runway on which the tearful winner took her first walk. Six years ago, Miss America CEO Sam Haskell III, the former head of worldwide television for the venerable William Morris Agency, created a six-part reality series in which contestants competed before the actual Miss America competition. He took a heap of criticism for that, but he stood his ground. But the reality of the reality series is that it actually helped Miss America regain its relevancy. Over the last several years, the median age of the average Miss America television viewer has dropped from 58 to a more advertiser-friendly 37. That helped Miss America lure back ABC, which dropped the show after the 2004 broadcast. Today, Miss America has a new threeyear contract with ABC to broadcast the show from Boardwalk Hall in Atlantic City. Don’t look now, but it just may be hip and cool again to be a fan of Miss America.

hile the creators of Miss America couldn’t predict the many changes the competition would face over the years, they would probably be happy to find out that the pageant, which debuted in Atlantic City in 1921 — where it was held up until 2006, when the pageant moved to Las Vegas — is back in the resort town this year. In September 2006, after the pageant had left Atlantic City, the 2007 contestants were photographed in vintage swimsuits from throughout the ages (1920s-1980s). The photos are significant as, in the early years of the pageant, the swimsuit competition segment was the most popular. The Businessmen’s League of Atlantic City, credited with developing a “Fall Frolic,” held in September 1921, deserve the credit for the swimsuit portion of the pageant. The event featured a popularity contest and a beauty contest, with the winner of the beauty contest, titled the “Most Beautiful Bathing Girl in America,” awarded the title of “Golden Mermaid.” A panel of artists serving as judges awarded 16-year-old Margaret Gorman of Washington, D.C., the winner of both contests and issued her a $100 prize. When Gorman returned in 1922 to defend her titles, she was draped in the American flag and called “Miss America.” And that is how the swimsuits became a such big part of the competition. ■
