    NJ Lighthouse Challenge 2010 and 3SNJ will be there

    What: New Jersey Lighthouse Challenge 2010
    When: Saturday, October 16th through Sunday, October 17th
    Starting Point: Airport Plaza
    1390 Highway 36
    Hazlet, NJ 07730
    Time: 9:00 AM

    The NJ Lighthouse Challenge is a two day event where the 11 land based lighthouses of NJ are opened to the public for visitation and climbing. In addition to the 11 lighthouses there are two museums, one life saving station (newly added this year) and a bonus location are a part of this event. A tri-fold souvenir pamphlet will be available for purchase for $1.00. As you visit each lighthouse your souvenir will be stamped as proof of each visit. This will be your souvenir to commemorate your participation in the event. This year marks the 11th Anniversary that the NJ Lighthouse Challenge has been held since its inception.

    For more information about this event, please visit the NJ Lighthouse Society’s challenge website, New Jersey Lighthouse Society - Other Lighthouse Events or http://www.lighthousechallengenj.org/ .

    The point of this event for 3SNJ is a reason for a nice long cruise where we can visit and learn about location of this state that we are not aware of or never thought about visiting, until now. Lighthouses are also great back drops for pictures of our cars. Did I also mention that this is a relatively long cruise, about 390 miles, along most of New Jersey’s southern shoreline. This is a great opportunity for us to do what we love doing, driving and showing off our cars. This is a rain or shine event so there is no excuse to drop out because of the weather. This is basically a free event, except for fuel, food and lodging, the souvenir pamphlet is optional.

    We completed the challenge last year and we will do it again this year.




    The sites that will be part of this event/cruise will be:
    Day #1
    1. Sandy Hook Lighthouse in Highlands
    2. Twin Lighthouses of Navesink in Highlands
    3. Sea Girt Lighthouse in Sea Girt
    4. Barnegat Light Historical Museum in Barnegat Light
    5. Barnegat Lighthouse in Barnegat Light
    6. Tucker's Island Lighthouse in Tuckerton
    7. Cape May Point Lighthouse in Cape May Point (Night climb location)
    8. Absecon Lighthouse in Atlantic City (Night climb location and only night challenge location)

    Day #2
    9. Ludlam's Beach Lighthouse in Sea Isle City
    10. Tatham Life Saving Station in Stone Harbor
    11. Hereford Inlet Lighthouse in North Wildwood
    12. Cape May County Historical Museum in Cape May Court House
    13. East Point Lighthouse Heislerville
    14. Finn's Point Lighthouse in Pennsville
    15. Tinicum Lighthouse in Paulsboro

    The order in which each site is visited has not been 100% determined but will most likely be in the order which is listed above.
    Updates will be made as necessary and posted.
    Lighthouse location details will be posted at a later date.
    There will be an overnight stay in between Absecon Lighthouse in Atlantic City and Ludlam's Beach Lighthouse in Sea Isle City.
    There will not be an official hotel for this event. Lodging arrangements will be the responsibility of the participant.

    We did it last year and it was pouring for most of the time. But we still had a blast.

    Now the bad news

    Ludlam Beach lighthouse has been demolished

    http://www.nbcphiladelphia.com/news/...103436419.html

    We still haven't decided if we will be making the trek over there to pay tribute to its history.
    What does everyone think? Go or not go? This will have an effect on the route we take.

    I will post up the route info by early next week.
