Informing Communities about Offshore Wind

Members of the Cape May Court House community attend COA's
offshore wind information session

Executive Director Cindy Zipf gave an informative presentation about offshore wind energy to interested and passionate locals on April 25th in Cape May Court House. Cindy discussed the organization’s position, not opposing offshore wind, and shared information about impacts of offshore wind on the New York/New Jersey marine ecosystem. Attendees were invested and engaged, and the discussions continued with many people staying long after the presentation had ended. Special thanks to Cape May GOP Chairman Michael Donohue and Cape May County Commissioner Melanie Collette, and to members from local groups, including Defend Brigantine Beach, Protect Our Coast, Sustainable Downbeach, and other groups, for attending. Also, COA thanks and appreciates the staff at the Rutgers Cooperative Extension Building in Cape May Court House for welcoming us with open arms. 

Stay tuned for more events to share information in the South Jersey region.
