Box 516, Oakhurst, NJ 07755-0516 732-531-2136 OceanMuseum@yahoo.com April 23, 2020 To: All members and friends of the Township of Ocean Historical Museum: It is with great sadness that the Township of Ocean Historical Museum announces the cancellation of its 16th Annual Spring Tea that was rescheduled to be held on Sat., May 30 at the Asbury Park Woman's Club in Wanamassa because the COVID-19 has not been sufficiently abated so we can predict when it will be safe for our workers and guests. This social gathering of friends, renewing acquaintances,  supporting the Museum, and enjoying a tasty luncheon, cannot be held in the spirit of our previous Teas under the social distancing and face mask guidelines. Therefore, reservation, on-line or by check, will be returned and we will be looking forward to renewing this signature Museum event in April 2021. Sincerely, Paul G.
