'Today' Show Gives Viewers A Tour Of Long Beach Island
New Jersey native Stephanie Ruhle highlighted several LBI businesses while she and her daughter got in on the summer fun.
LONG BEACH ISLAND, NJ — A national audience got a taste of Long Beach Island's summer fun, and how the coronavirus has affected operations.
Stephanie Ruhle — NBC's senior business correspondent and a New Jersey native — explored LBI for "Today." Ruhle and her daughter, Drew, visited Farias Surf and Sport, Thundering Surf Waterpark's mini-golf course, Holiday Snack Bar and the Show Place Ice Cream Parlour.
Of course, some things have changed at those attractions. The Thundering Surf mini-golf course can only let on a limited number of golfers, while spending extra time cleaning balls and clubs. The show goes on at the Show Place, but performers wear face masks in the outdoor tent.
