Summer might be the prime season for visiting the Jersey Shore, but a new initiative being kicked off by Lieutenant Governor Kim Guadagno focuses on all the shore has to offer right now.

New Jersey's waterways were trashed by Sandy. Winds and storm surges laced popular boating channels with boats, cars, backyard sheds and furniture belonging to local residents.

Governor Christie has indicated he is willing to sign an internet gaming bill into law, if several changes are made to the legislation.

In January of 2014 New Jersey will host the Super Bowl. The game will be played at Met Life Stadium in the Meadowlands. Garden State business leaders think having the Super Bowl will help the state economically and could also bolster New Jersey's reputation around the country. Right now, the state's reputation is iffy at best.

No one knows exactly what the New Jersey coastline will look like this summer, but a shore-area lawmaker has offered his optimistic outlook for this year's tourism season and what it means for the many to follow.

Governor Christie is optimistic this will be a good summer for the Jersey Shore, but he's asking Garden State residents to continue being patient.

Mistaken by erroneous news reports and tales of folks who lost their homes in nearby towns, a quarter of the nation believes Atlantic City's boardwalk was destroyed during Superstorm Sandy.

There are tight marketing budgets in the aftermath of Sandy, but some tourism officials in Monmouth and Ocean counties plan to use their website to tell potential visitors that the Jersey Shore is open for business.

Long Beach Island and the rest of Southern Ocean County is clearing up any doubts in people's mind, they will be ready for summer.

Small business men and women in New Jersey will be listening carefully today when the Governor delivers his address.
