Jennifer Capobianco said they didn't have power on Friday and Saturday and lost thousands of dollars worth of fresh food.
"Sales have been bad," said Capobianco. "I looked at our computer this week and we're down about 40-50% Monday through Thursday.""Probably millions because the piers alone were shut down," said Wildwood Mayor Pete Byron. "People that come to Wildwood support the whole Cape May County, so it isn't just the money that is lost in Wildwood.
"This island is great," said Capobianco. "Everybody comes together like I said. If you would have seen it down here during the outage, neighbors helping neighbors." Capobianco hopes popular events like the BBQ Fest, Beach Blast and Christmas in July will bring more people and business to the area. Atlantic City Electric is still investigating the cause of the fire but doesn't believe it's a result of foul play.Copyright © 2023 WPVI-TV. All Rights Reserved.
