Selby Beach Security
Calling all volunteers!! We are looking for a few folks to help sit on the beach gate and check parking stickers. Word has gotten out that Selby Beach is a public beach and folks from all over are innocently hopping over to relax. It has now become a problem and we need to step up security, but we need some people-power!! We have put together a sign up to sit on the gate in 2-hour shifts. It's not a lot of time, but would make a huge difference to our community. Here are the details:
Dates: 14 August through 13 September
Fridays - 6pm to 8pm
Saturdays and Sundays - 11am to 7pm
Sign up for a shift that fits your schedule!!

Update Week of 3 August
Good morning Selby,
It's been a while since I've put out an update. The summer is going by REALLY quick! I've altered the final summer activity plans yet again. I apologize. I'm trying to get over a cold and I'm just exhausted. We'll have 2 final activities this summer ~ one this Wednesday and one next Wednesday. We are still meeting for our summer reading club every Monday to turn in times.
MONDAY
* Selby Summer Reading - 5:00pm to 6:00pm
This Monday will be an extended time since we are helping Edgewater Books collect school supplies to help our local schools (meaning the South River cluster schools). You can still turn in your hours and grab a new sheet, but we will also have a table set up for folks to drop off supplies.
TUESDAY
* SCA Board Meeting - 7:00pm
WEDNESDAY
* Selby Tots - (9:30am - 11:00am)
* Airplanes! Summer Activity - 2:00pm - 3:00pm
* Key cards, parking stickers and boat keys - 7:00pm - 9:00pm
* Community center reservations - 7:00pm - 9:00pm
THURSDAY
* Paddle boarding - 6:30pm
FRIDAY
*1st Friday Happy Hour - 7:00pm
Friday's happy hour will be at the beach. We need to soak up the nice weather while we can! The community center will not be open so don't forget to bring your key fobs!
ANNOUNCEMENTS
** Tonight at the Selby community center during the Selby summer reading program, we will be collecting for the Edgewater Books school supply drive for needy students. Let's really show them what Selby can do and don't forget they gave us our Little Library that we love so much. Let's show our support! This is our regular summer reading night, so you will be able to turn in your hours and pick up another sheet. I will also have new books out to look through as well as information on the Selby Youth Book Club that will start in September. Target has some really great sales on school supplies AND you can text "School to Target" to the number 827438 and you'll be sent a link for a $5 coupon (expires 8/8) when you spend $25 in school supplies. The kids need our help! The schools REALLY appreciate these supplies. It really isn't too much money and who doesn't love school supply shopping!!!
** Howl-At-The-Moon - The Selby end-of-summer bash is Saturday, 29 August from 5:00pm to 11:00pm. We'll be celebrating the end of summer under the light of the full moon! A pig roast is already being arranged, but we need some culinary help from our Selby chef masters!! Here's the sign up for the potluck:
http://www.signupgenius.com/go/ 9040B44AAA92AA46-howlatthemoon
We are also in need of decoration and games/entertainment in the form of torches or cornhole or horseshoes and things of that nature. You may bring them by during set up (4:30) and grab them on your way out. We really appreciate the loan! Here's the sign up for decor and games:
www.signupgenius.com/go/9040B44AAA92AA46-Selby4
One last thing, I'm looking for music - bands/DJs - that would be interested in playing that night. Please email me at SelbyBay@gmail.com.
** Calling all those that have been interested in the Neighborhood Watch Program! Here is your first call of duty. We are starting sign ups for teams to sit on the gate at the beach. The job is simple: grab some chairs or a tent or the back of a truck or pick-up and stop all those who attempt to enter. Only folks with a parking sticker may have entrance to the beach. Walkers must be a resident of Selby. Check out the sign up and see if there is a good time for you!!

Selby 4th of July
Happy Independence Day Selby!!
I think that this is Selby’s favorite holiday! Why? FIREWORKS!! There’s a lot going on so I wanted to give everyone a rundown so no one is left out in the cold and we all have a great and safe 4th of July!!
Children’s Parade
We will have our Selby Children’s Parade at 9:15am beginning at the community center. At 9am, we will pick this year’s Selby King and Queen and they will line up with everyone behind them. Here is our parade route:
- Community Center
- Up first 1st Ave to the right
- Left on Arundel Ave.
- Left on Beach Drive
- Left on Cedar Grove Ave
- Then back down to the beach
We encourage everyone to take a moment to come down to the parade route and cheer on our little ones! I have several nominations for 2015 Selby Queens, but I have no nominations for 2015 Selby Kings. If you would like to nominate your son or daughter for Selby King or Queen, then please email SelbyBay@gmail.com. This year’s King and Queen will be chosen randomly from a hat by last year’s court. The 2015 Selby King and Queen are cordially invited to hold the Selby banner in the parade sponsored by the American Legion that will be parading through Selby.
American Legion Parade
The American Legion is holding an Old Fashioned parade which, sounds to me, like a tradition in the making! The parade will include the Woodland Beach Volunteer Fire Department, Captain American, Mickey Mouse and many others including Selby residents and folks up and down the peninsula!! It’s going to be exciting to be a part of the parade!! I have a Selby banner and encourage everyone to hop to the Legion and participate. I will also bring baggies of lollipops to be handed out to the spectators! The parade line up begins at 11am at the Legion. Here is the parade route:
- The Legion
- Selby Heights
- Right on 8th Ave
- Left on Hillside Ave
- Right on 2nd Ave
- Right on Selby Blvd
- Right on 7th Ave
- Left on Hillside Ave
- Right on 8th Ave
- Selby Heights
- Then back to the Legion
The Legion will be having a DJ, activities, food and games until around 11pm. Fireworks will begin around 8:30pm. It sounds like a great time and the best part is that it is within walking distance!! Go with a group to make it a super fun walk!
Selby Community Center
Since there is so much happening at the Legion, the Selby Community Center will remain CLOSED during the 4th of July holiday. Please remember that fireworks are not permitted at the beach.
Thanks and have a great and safe Independence Day!!
