Save Barnegat Bay Service Project
Save Barnegat Bay Service Project
Several of our members met at Shelter Cove Beach to gather sand samples for Save Barnegat Bay's microplastic research project, followed by dinner at JoeBellas Restaurant. We were relieved to find a very small amount of microplastics locally despite the growing impact these plastic particles are having throughout the region and globally.

Meeting Speaker Phillipe Cousteau
Featured speaker Phillipe Cousteau inspired members with amazing stories of his grandfather Jacques Couteau, videos about damaged coral reefs, recovering ecosystems and areas where sharks are thriving. He shared wonderful memories about his family and their love of the outdoors. He talked about efforts happening - and still needed - worldwide to restore ocean environments, about the importance of teachers in educating today’s youth, as well as his appreciation for Rotary’s efforts in supporting environmental projects globally.  The meeting was hosted by Ocean County College to benefit their foundation.

9-11 Reflection Ceremony
9-11 Reflection Ceremony
The Rotary Sailfest NJ Event cast off on Sept 11th with a special Reflection Ceremony to honor veterans, first responders, and those who have served our country or were lost during the tragic events of 9-11. The culmination of the Ceremony was a short parade headed by the Island Heights Fire Department, and a symbolic wreath-laying.  New this year was music by members of the US Coast Guard Jazz Band for this always moving ceremony as well as afterwards on the main stage.
