A Great Day On Barnegat Bay
Join us on Sunday, June 1 at the 11th Annual Barnegat Bay Festival. This year the theme is "GO GREEN! We All Want Our Bay Clean!" So true that is. The Barnegat Bay is a beautiful ecosystem, as well as a spectacular recreation area for everyone.
The festival takes place in the lovely Wanamaker Park Complex in Island Heights. The bay is a spectacular backdrop to a day of education, shopping and fun. The festival is sponsored by the Barnegat Bay National Estuary Program (BBNEP)with support from our partners, Ocean County College and the Ocean County Board of Chosen Freeholders.
You can take a guided canoe ecotour for an up-close view of Dillon’s Creek with an Ocean County Park naturalist (registration required by calling Betsy Hyle @ 732-255-0472). Or you can enjoy the free scenic pontoon boat ride along the Toms River every hour on the hour beginning at 11 a.m. (first come, first served. Get your free ticket at the BBNEP Information Booth). There will be demonstrations, a native plant sale, over 50 exhibitors and over 50 craft and food vendors. To find out all the details, go to the BBNEP for times and specifics.
And don't forget to stop by the Celtic Chairde Creations booth as we celebrate the wonderful, historical, beautiful Barnegat Bay!
