The Bacchus Inn Bed & Breakfast is proud to have accommodated and supported the Higher Education – K-12 Bridges Conference.
The Bacchus Inn staff have worked with members of P4CE for some time providing accommodations for their semi-annual board meetings and taking on the role of their liaison to Cape May. Planning quality events such as this require a knowledge of the destination and resources. The Bacchus Inn prides itself on understanding what Cape May has to offer as a beach resort and conference destination. Through a consistent dialogue, The Bacchus Inn staff in union with The Cape May Convention Center provided information and assistance to P4CE event planners to help develop a quality experience for the conference attendees.The Bacchus Inn has been honored to provide accommodations during the conferences for keynote speakers, the executive members of the P4CE board and sponsors of this conference; Wilkes University, 3rd Learning, Chester County Intermediate Unit, Research for Better Schools, and Discovery Education.
The Bacchus Inn also hosted a networking event per the P4CE staff request. The social engagement showcased exceptional products from Cape May Winery and Seaside Cheese of West Cape May.
This 2014 Higher Education Bridges Conference in Cape May event was a success for the planners, attendees, and Cape May. A coordinated effort amongst P4CE staff, The Bacchus Inn, and the Cape May Convention Center were essential. The Bacchus Inn hopes that this conference will continue to be a model for future events showcasing our beautiful seashore resort, historic inns, and the Cape May Convention Center.

NEW CAPE MAY JAZZ FESTIVAL – NOV 9 &10
October 10th, 2012 by johnmatusiak
The inaugural “Exit 0 International Jazz Festival” in Cape May is to be held Nov. 9 to 11, 2012.
The previously held semiannual “Cape May Jazz Festival” put on by a local organization, ended a 17-year run in 2011. Debt and lack of cohesiveness within the organization is said to be the catalyst for the organization’s decision to dissolve.
The organizer of the Exit 0 International Jazz Festival wants to bring more of a New Orleans vibe to this festival. 52 year-old Michale Kline says it is because nobody knows how to have fun like people in New Orleans.
Main-stage shows will take place at the Convention Hall, which will be reconfigured as a 550-seat bistro. In all, more than 20 bands and artists will perform at 8 locations throughout Cape May.
Mr. Kline plans to continue the jazz tradition in Cape May, by presenting another jazz festival in June.
The jazz festival is a great opportunity to meet up with old friends and listen to great music in the historic beach front community of Cape May NJ. There is something special about listening to great music on a lazy afternoon watching the waves crash on the sea. Everyone can listen to great jazz but everyone should experience it down the shore in historic Cape May at least once.
