The Cape May County Coast Guard Community Festival is presented by the Cape May County Coast Guard Community Foundation in partnership with the County of Cape May and its 16 municipalities, the Cape May County Chamber of Commerce, the City of Cape May and community sponsors.
The festival honors the men and women of the United States Coast Guard and celebrates the county’s designation as a Coast Guard Community. The designation was awarded after approval by the United States Coast Guard and an Act of Congress in 2015.
Considered by many to be the Coast Guard’s hometown, the festival takes place at Training Center Cape May (TRACEN) – the only active Boot Camp for Coast Guard recruits in the United States.

The 2019 Ride to Defeat ALS, which begins and ends at Morey’s Adventure Pier in Wildwood, NJ, will loop bicyclists around scenic Cape May County and pass such attractions as a WWII sunken ship, Cape May Lighthouse, and local vineyards. Families with young children can opt to ride a 10-mile loop, while more adventurous cyclists can choose a 25-, 50-, 75-, or 100-mile loop. A colorful celebration hosted by Morey’s Piers will await cyclists as they break through the finish line. Festivities will include food, music, and FREE two-day passes to Morey’s amusement piers and water parks for June 15th and 16th. Proceeds from the Ride help The ALS Association Greater Philadelphia Chapter continue its support of vital ALS research, care services, and advocacy.
