Race for Recreation!

We are thrilled to have entered into our 20th year of racing through Sea Girt, N.J. As always your participation will benefit Sea Girt Recreation to fund programs, equipment and projects. This year’s race special event will be a Salute to Our Troops. A portion of the race proceeds will be donated to The Wounded Warrior Project whose mission is to honor and empower wounded US veterans.

The Sea Girt Recreation department manages and operates all Sea Girt recreational activities to encourage and enhance the development of the physical, cultural, artistic, and life skills of all residents of Sea Girt. Additionally, the department strives to provide a positive alternative to drugs, violence, and crime and to instill the values of individual pride and giving to the community. The department also seeks to promote a spirit of cooperation, build self-esteem, and develop lifelong recreational interests among program participants.

The Wounded Warrior Project lists its purpose as:

• To raise awareness and enlist the public’s aid for the needs of injured service members.
   

• To help injured service members aid and assist each other.
