Together, we can create a better Beach Haven for tomorrow

CELEBRATING OUR PAST & VISION FOR TOMORROW

Please help us reach our goal to beautify and enhance the recreational value of Veterans Park while promoting community engagement through environmental stewardship. Through collaborative efforts & your generosity, we strive to create an inviting, sustainable and resilient park that inspires pride, fosters connections, and provides enjoyment for residents and visitors of all ages.

We are seeking partial funding from grants and your generous tax-deductible donations.

This project will highlight Beach Haven’s rich past, educate residents and visitors, and strengthen Beach Haven’s identity as one of New Jersey’s most historic shore communities. We will create visible, lasting markers of our heritage by placing interpretive signs at significant locations and adding “Historic District” markers to street signs within our nationally and state-recognized Historic District. Please contact us if you’d like to be a project sponsor.

Beach Haven has a one-time opportunity to apply for a grant to cover an INCLUSIVE PLAYGROUND designed for children of all abilities to play together. The existing playground equipment needs to be replaced because of its age. The Borough was awarded a NJ Green Acres Grant (Jake’s Law) to cover 75% of the cost. Planning is underway for the new playground.

The new playground would include:
– Increased shade
– Padded floor covering
– Equipment for children of all abilities

SAFETY FROM THE SKY

The Beach Haven Lifeguards and Police now have an added tool to excel - drone technology to assist first responders in their life saving efforts.

– Range of several miles
– Flotation device that inflates when dropped into the water
– Can detect rip currents and hazards in the water
– Equipped with infrared camera
– Speakers to communicate
– Operators will be trained and licensed
– Already deployed in other beach communities

Thank you to our generous sponsors who funded this important community project.
