— It is shaping up as a Memorial Day weekend like no other.
The traditions of years’ past looked a lot different Sunday. Cooler weather helped keep crowd sizes small on newly-reopened beaches, as people tried to get a first taste of summer, CBS2’s Dave Carlin reported.
When the necessary beachwear includes a jacket or sweatshirt, some people tend to stay away. Jones Beach was manageable for the extra workers assigned on Sunday and they were glad for that.
“If the weather was better I’m sure we’d have quite a turnout,” one worker said.
His job overseeing one of several hand sanitizing stations was lonely. Kaitlyn Albrecht of Seaford was among very few takers.
“There are not as many people as I thought there would be,” Albrecht said.
