Chamber of Commerce NEWS AND VIEWS
The air is crisp, the nights are cool and the sky is blue – Welcome to Pleasure Island in the fall. And there is no better way to bring in Autumn than to attend the 19th Annual Pleasure Island Seafood Blues & Jazz Festival on October 13th & 14th. This years’ Festival brings 1995 Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Blues Icon, the legendary GREGG ALLMAN to Pleasure Island. In addition, there will be fourteen other blues and jazz groups on two stages over the two day festival brought to you by Bryant Real Estate and the Pleasure Island Chamber of Commerce at the Fort Fisher Air Force Recreation Area. GREGG ALLMAN will arrive on Pleasure Island in support of his seventh solo album, his first in 13 years, Low Country Blues. As a founding member of the one and only Allman Brothers Band and in his own storied solo career, Allman has long been a gifted natural interpreter of the blues, his soulful and distinctive voice one of the defining sounds in the history of American music. Produced by T Bone Burnett, Low Country Blues finds Allman putting his own stamp on songs by some of the blues giants whose work has long informed his own, from Muddy Waters and BB King to Buddy Guy and Magic Sam. Named for the coastal Georgia region Allman calls home, Low Country Blues stands as a high water mark in an already remarkable body of work, rich with passion, verve, and the unerring confidence of a true survivor. Tickets are just $40.00 in advance for a two-day pass or can be purchased at the door for $50.00 for Saturday (Gregg Allman plays Saturday night) and $15.00 for Sunday. Kids 12 and under are free. We ask that you do not bring coolers or pets, but bring your chairs, towels and blankets for a Pleasure Island style weekend. See you there!

Spotlight On Business—Fuzzy Peach
The Fuzzy Peach Frozen Yogurt Bar opened its doors to the Wilmington community in 2010 at its flagship location in Racine Commons, which hap-pens to be under a mile from UNCW’s campus where the three owners first met. Rocco Quaranto, Wells Struble, and Jason Nista met as freshman on
the track team and graduated from UNCW with business degrees. A short two years later, they opened the first Fuzzy Peach on a shoe string budget, bringing to Wilmington a new sensation in frozen desserts. The Fuzzy Peach offers a range of zero fat and low fat yogurt flavors, as well as sugarless and lactose-free op-tions, from the traditional to novelties, such as Apple Pie and Egg Nog. Their fresh topping bar includes everything from fresh fruit and candy to Captain Crunch cereal. Their variety of options allows the custom-er to have the creative freedom to make their own versatile and delicious masterpiece. In a span of just two short years, they have added four locations, including Portner’s Neck, Monkey Junction, Downtown Wilmington, and their newest location at Carolina Beach. Rocco, Jason, and Wells co-own the Carolina Beach location with one of their Regional Managers and Director of Franchise Training, Tom Maskell. They are all 4 excited to be on the Island with such a great local welcoming! The building they are located in has had some major renovations by the owner, which include a massive deck for Fuzzy Peach customers to enjoy. Some recent achievements include the implementation of both their catering and franchising ven-tures. They have begun catering in the greater Wilmington area, boasting that their services are perfect for events from school and business functions to birthday parties and weddings. They have also found suc-cess in franchising, with quite a few locations on the way, including Southport, Cape Carteret, Shallotte, Leland, Topsail Island, New Bern, and Morehead City. They have recently begun providing a “bottoms bar,” which gives customers the option of picking a cup with either a homemade waffle bowl, or a brownie or cupcake made by Coastal Cupcakes, another Wilmington-based shop. Also, The Fuzzy Peach is now offering self-serve banana splits at all of their locations. The ultimate goal of The Fuzzy Peach is that it be-comes synonymous with the word “dessert” to consumers nationwide. To accomplish this goal, they aim to work together with customers, employees, and franchisees to create an unparalleled dessert experience to the community. This group of young innovators guarantees satisfaction in every cup, day or night, rain or shine. Fill up and enjoy, because Life’s a Peach!

Letter From the Chair
Dear Members:
There is just something about living in paradise and being able to enjoy the great events and happenings each week. No matter where you visit, nothing compares to “home”. We are extremely fortunate to have such a place that pulls out all of the stops to accommodate our seasonal guests and locals alike! The 27
th Annual Carolina Beach Music Festival was an amazing
success! The crowds continue to grow each year and the anticipation for next year’s festival has already begun. As others have said, “this festival is back!” Known as the longest running beach music festival still held on the beach, the CBMF is gaining ground on some of the larger beach music festivals in the tri state area. Thank you to all of
the volunteers and staff for working hard to make this festival one of the best! Speaking of great events……by now, most everyone has heard the news that Gregg Allman will be headlining the 19
th Annual Seafood Blues and Jazz Festival Oct 13
th! Advance ticket sales are
booming as people are making plans to be on Pleasure Island for this epic music festival! As a side note, securing this level of headliner takes a lot of work, diligence and most of all patience. Thanks again to Gail and Greg for working hard to make this happen! The only issue we face now is how do we top this next year??? Trust me when I say, they are already working on it! I would like to encourage everyone to take the time to get out with your family and friends and enjoy all of the weekly events happening at the Boardwalk. There is so much to do and the great thing is that it’s all family friendly! We take pride in providing an environment that welcomes families to our Boardwalk and allows them to create memories that will last a lifetime! Be sure to stay up to date on all of the events throughout the year by visiting our website www.pleasureislandnc.org.
Sincerely,
Mike Worley 2012 Chairman-Pleasure Island Chamber of Commerce
