Our latest achievement is 2023 national award recognition of Atlanticare Concerts on the Beach in Somers Point as the best free outdoor concert series in America by USA TODAY Top Ten Readers Poll Travel Awards.
Led by a devoted, selfless community volunteer, Nancy Marotta, The Somers Point Beach Concert Committee has become a Somers Point legacy of the Marotta Family led by Carmen Marotta, the son of Sicilian immigrant "Tony Mart". The committee is populated with stars including the talented photographer, John Loreaux; Linda Bader Archambeau, granddaughter of William Morrow after whom the Somers Point Beach is named, and the daughter of one of Somers Point’s many great police officers, Chief Lynn Bader; her husband Moe Archambeau, “the lovely Cheryl” Kershner, Andy Malson and Dawn Collins.
Somers Point is a fertile community in which this world class concert series has grown nourished by the musical culture in its history.
Somers Point community leaders, the Mayor, City Council and Administration are focused and dedicated on helping the committee make this the best outdoor concert series in America. They deserve tremendous recognition and accolades for their positive leadership.
Most importantly it is the people who come every week to laugh, dance and enjoy this unique and magical place. They voted to reward us with pride and gratitude for producing and presenting the finest musical talent ever seen in a small town free concert series.
