For the past three years, the Garden Club of Long Beach Island has sponsored a toy drive at its holiday luncheon, in support of the Ship Bottom Police Department. This year, the sponsorship was for the RJ Barnabas Children’s Specialized Hospital in Toms River. The luncheon was held at Calloways in Eagleswood Township
