Almost a mile of it for you and your family and friends to enjoy at Seven Presidents Oceanfront Park in Long Branch. In addition to the oceanfront beach, and protected swimming areas in the summer, Seven Presidents also provides “Tony’s Place,” a playground for children of all abilities, a skateplex and in-line skating rink. Park Rangers and volunteers also work to protect nesting areas on the beach and along the dunes for the Least Tern and Piping Plover. The park is open year-round and provides an excellent site for surf fishing, bird watching or just walking on the beach and enjoying the ocean breeze. Also, be sure to check the current Park System Directory for a listing of activities and programs held throughout the year. Seven Presidents Oceanfront Park can be reached from State Route 36 (Ocean Avenue). The Park entrance is located at the intersection of Ocean Avenue and Joline Avenue in Long Branch. I want to encourage you to get out and enjoy your parks. A visit can be a great stress reliever. Volunteering with the Park System can also be a very rewarding experience and an opportunity to socialize and enjoy the outdoors. Should you wish to learn more about your Park System and volunteer opportunities, please contact us at (732) 842-4000, ext. 4238, or on our website at www.monmouthcountyparks.com. Sincerely, James J.

  • Port Hedland Turf Club
    TOWN OF PORT HEDLAND Needs Assessment, Concept Design and Implementation Plan for the Port Hedland Turf Club PART 1 NEEDS ASSESSMENT REPORT FINAL REPORT SEPTEMBER 2012 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Background The Town of Port Hedland engaged A Balanced View (ABV) Leisure Consultancy Services to conduct the “Needs Assessment, Concept Design and Implementation Plan for the Port Hedland Turf Club” study. This study will provide a long term vision for the future of equestrian sports in Port Hedland. The first component of this study is the Needs Assessment. Detailed research and consultation has been conducted to develop clear findings regarding the facility requirements for the equestrian community and the preferred location of the Port Hedland Turf Club (PHTC). The Town of Port Hedland is planning for the transformation of the Port/South Town sites into a major urban population of 50,000 persons over the next two decades and land for residential development is scarce. A decision on the future location of the PHTC is of key importance for the planning and future development of the Port Hedland town site given its size and impact on the form and function of the area. This study identifies and assesses multiple potential site locations, including the current site, to identify a viable future location for the PHTC and for the other current and potential future equestrian groups of the Town. Facility Needs Ideally, equestrian activities would be catered for in a specialised equestrian precinct promoting the benefits of collocation of compatible users and reducing unnecessary duplication of resources. It is envisaged that a total area of approximately 200 ha would allow the development of a comprehensive equestrian precinct that provides adequate room for growth in the future.
