Last month, Beach Haven was voted the best beach in Ocean County in the recent New Jersey Sea Grant Consortium’s 2021 “Favorite Beaches” poll. And at the borough council meeting on Aug. 9, Mayor Colleen Lambert called it a “team effort” and honored public works, beach patrol and beach badge checkers for all playing a key role.

Special signs from the consortium were placed at the public works department headquarters and the pavilion shared by the beach patrol and the badge checkers.
