📰 News we're reading
• Coastal Coalition Warns of "Massive" Underfunding for Federal Beach Projects (capemaycountyherald.com) — Stone Harbor is among six Cape May County beaches waiting on crucial 2026 federal funding for replenishment projects, which a coastal coalition warns may be severely underfunded. With recent storms worsening erosion and state officials saying they need federal dollars to proceed, local protection work could be delayed unless Congress boosts appropriations and Trenton acts on emergency requests. 
• 10 Remote Small Towns We Can't Get Enough of in the U.S. (onlyinyourstate.com) — Stone Harbor earns a spot on a national list of remote small towns worth a special trip, highlighted for its southern Seven Mile Island location and shell-covered beaches. The piece notes that while summers are busy, off-season visits offer quieter walks, a charming downtown, and wide-open shoreline that locals already know well.
