To the Editor:

On behalf of the board of trustees of the New Jersey Maritime Museum, I would like to express our heartfelt appreciation for all who supported our Sept. 12 annual fundraiser, “A Celebration of Beach Haven’s 125th Anniversary.”

Thanks to the generosity of local business owners, whose donations to our Chinese auction make it the biggest of its kind in this area, we were able to award over 50 incredible prizes to those whose tickets were drawn.
