This was so GREAT to see! (Referring
to 1971 video) I recognized a couple of peeps
in there, definately Tommy Campagnolia and was Freddy
Botway there? I spoke to Andrea last week, I wish
she had a computer so I could send this to her.
I bet she has not seen a movie of Freddy in forever,
so sad. Anyway thanks so much for sharing this!
It really made me pine for those days. WE ruled
the world then!

PS - If any one wants to get in touch with Andrea
have them email me, I will try to stay on top of
it for 2015!! |

Summer, the sunlight
screaming through the window, the lone Beach Bum
Dreams of the waves of friends, brothers, and sisters,
memories as the soft sand caresses the toes, the
minstrels of time,flowing notes so musically by
the sea

I remember the game we played mostly on the beach
that attracted a huge croud, "winky dink"
I look back on those days with lots of fond memories.
I've been living and working as a massage therapist
in Bar Harbor Maine, since 2001. I Love you guys,
I hope everyone's happy, hugs + kisses to all.
If I'm rememboring this right Alley and Paul or
as she said it "Paulie" started the
"Jones Beach Bums" I know everyone loved
Alley and misses her as do I. Her radient beauty
and selfless personality will live on in all of
our Hearts, her Loving "little sister"
Amy.

I use to believe that Alley and Paul Lancaster
started the Jones Beach Bums, but I have a feeling
alot more people wer're involved in the formation
of the origonal group. My memory needs some refreshing.
I'm inviting alot of feedback. I'd like to finish
this up with one profound statment that I know
everyone else will connect to. After all Alley
was a Bum Long before I was She dragged me to
one of your parties, from that point on I was
hooked. ALLEY I LOVE you, and miss you with all
my soul. Each of you can express your feelings
for Alley in your own unique way. I Love you guys.
HUGS + KISSES, AMY 3/16/19

Mike Siefert blew my mind sending me this site
after I found him on Linked In. I can't believe
a) we survived, b) there is a website reflecting
an important but neglected few yrs of my youth,
c) I missed so many reunions! Wow! Thank you Sharyn
(Shari?) I remember more faces & even a few
names than I expected to!

OMG so sad Perry

is what it is. Keep the memories alive.

The Jones Beach Bums Website
This
website was launched as a labor of love in March
of 2004, but due to the invention of Facebook
several years later (and it's superior interactivity)
coupled with the recent loss of it's pro bono
status from the original hosting company I worked
at in 2004, it has for several months now been
slated to disappear.
However,
even though it is not really necessary anymore,
I still LOVE it. To me this website is something
akin to a child. I have always felt like I gave
birth to it, after which I then sculpted it with
many hours (perhaps thousands) of loving
attention.
So
in early 2021 I decided I was not going to let
it go, that I would find an inexpensive way to
keep it going, for at least a little while longer.
(After all, it has been written up in New York
Newsday FOUR times!)
That
is why it is still here, even though I warned
you all that it was on the chopping block. And
it will be here for the next 3 years (I got a
quantity yearly discount). Worth every penny to
me! I love the pictures and the messages too much
to lose them.
I'm
sorry the Jukebox no longer works (perhaps one
day I'll figure out how to get a replacement)
and that the password protected Directory page
is defunct. But if
anyone wants or needs to see a copy of the directory,
just message me on our Facebook page and I will
send it to you.
Hoping
for a 50 year reunion this summer!
