    Monmouth County Park System Recreation Assistance Program 2019 Activity Listing MonmouthCountyParks.com Who We Are The Monmouth County Park System was established in 1960 when 24 acres of land left over from the construction of the Garden State Parkway were used to create Shark River Park. We have been growing ever since. Today, we manage 43 park areas that include forests, wetland/marine habitats, golf courses, historic sites, recreation areas and conservation sites. One of our long-term goals is to preserve more than 19,000 acres - 7% of the county - as public space. Along with securing land for future generations, we also offer more than 6,000 programs, camps, activities and events each year. What We Do The Monmouth County Park System is proud to offer many opportunities for school, community, scout and other groups.

  • The Barnegat Bay Watershed Educational Resource Guide
    Barnegat Bay Watershed Educational Resource Guide Prepared by Christine R. Raabe For the Ocean County Soil Conservation District and the Barnegat Bay Watershed Environmental Educators Roundtable Updated: March 2012 by the Barnegat Bay Partnership Table of Contents Introduction How to Use this Guide 1. Organizations and Agencies Involved with Barnegat Bay Watershed Education 2. National Organizations for Additional Resources 3. A Synopsis of Teacher Resources 4. Other Resource Guides and Directories 5. Map Resources 6. Barnegat Bay Watershed Environmental Educators Roundtable Steering Committee Members i Introduction The Ocean County Soil Conservation District and the Barnegat Bay Watershed Environmental Educators Roundtable discovered that educators within the watershed need assistance in finding pertinent information and resources if they are to effectively teach about the Barnegat Bay watershed and the issues that impact it. This guide has been compiled to answer that need. What began as a simple directory has grown into an annotated compendium of resources and organizations offering numerous programs, publications, field trips, and watershed information which educators can incorporate into their lessons and activities. It is a guide that will prove useful to anyone searching for information about the features and functions of the Barnegat Bay watershed. This Educator’s Resource Guide will be updated periodically. Please help us keep the document current by e-mailing Mary Judge at [email protected] with any additions, deletions, or corrections to the entries in this directory. Thank you for your help with this ongoing project. Original funding for this guide was provided by the USEPA and the NJDEP through the Barnegat Bay Partnership (BBP, formerly Barnegat Bay National Estuary Program) and the Partnership for Nonpoint Source Pollution Control in the Barnegat Bay Watershed.

  • Project Learning Tree Correlation for the Sites in the New Jersey Wildlife Viewing Guide
    Using Project Learning Tree and Project WILD at sites described in the New Jersey Wildlife Viewing Guide The New Jersey Wildlife Viewing Guide describes 87 of the most interesting places in New Jersey from a wildlife habitat standpoint. Many of these sites offer exciting, educationally-stimulating programs that focus on local wildlife, natural and cultural history at a reasonable price. At sites without an interpretive program you can create your own natural history program by using activities from Project Learning Tree and Project WILD. This document gives some suggestions for activities you can use at the various sites. Be sure to call the phone number listed in the Viewing Guide for each site to verify bus parking and other particulars, and to avoid scheduling conflicts. Project Learning Tree correlations begin on page 2; Project WILD on page 8. The key of site numbers begins on page 11. Sponsored by N.J.
