Margate, NJ –Families, it’s time again to bask in the warmth of the sun, don your funkiest tie dye t-shirts and welcome the rebirth of spring! On Sunday May 4th, the Margate Business Association, in conjunction with the Margate Mothers Association, Sustainable Downbeach, Margate Community Church and Margate Recreation, will celebrate the arrival of spring with their 3rd annual Cherry Blossom Festival presented by The Pet Salon. The free, family friendly event will feature kid’s games and activities, live music by Dead Reckoning, tasty treats, wine and beer sampling, arts and crafts, a ‘May the Fourth Be with You' dog costume contest and a host of environmental exhibitors. The festival will be held from 12pm – 4pm on Ventnor Ave. between Sumner and Union Aves. directly in front of the Margate Community Church. Everyone is encouraged to bring chairs or blankets to spend the afternoon relaxing with friends and neighbors. For decades, the scores of cherry blossom trees that align the Memorial Parkway in Margate have been a symbol of seasonal renewal and hope for sunnier days ahead, as their delicate pink and white blooms burst onto the scene and say goodbye to winter.
