Intro: Butt out. It's going to be white-knuckle time for smokers who attend some of this year's upcoming SummerFest events.
The Brick Township Council unanimously passed a resolution at the May 26 Township Council meeting that forbids smoking anywhere in the Windward Beach area on three of the seven scheduled nights this year.
The Brick Municipal Alliance Committee-- one of the event's major sponsors -- has requested that smoking be banned on the three nights of paid entertainment, Mayor Stephen C. Acropolis said.
The no-smoking nights include July 2, July 23 and Sept. 3, according to the resolution. . . .
