My parents had a summer house on Windsor Ave in A.C. We used to spend weekends during the "off season" at the house. Many great memories. I recognize many of those places where the video was taken. I remember saying to someone 10 yrs ago that I missed the 1970's and 1980's in Atlantic City. They could not understand why. True the Atlantic City of the 1st part of the 20th century was more glamorous / prosperous. However, I was born in 1971. As decrepit as A.C. was in the 1970's and 1980's, it was the people and the memories we made that were special. Childhood innocence.
I was 12 and grew up in Brigantine at the time. I remember going to the boardwalk at least once or twice every summer in the '70's with my family and maybe a friend or two , going on rides and maybe seeing a movie. Wonderful memories as a kid, i miss it
I was a Trumpet player in that band. One of the Conductors Russell Stachiw passed away June 10 2018 and today was his memorial at Neil McNeil High School where he developed the music program and taught for 27 years. I briefly saw myself and my best friend Joe LoMonaco, also a trumpet player, in your film. If you have any photos or more video footage of this event, I would greatly appreciate seeing them.
