Welcome to the Borough of Pine Beach. We are a small residential community
located along the banks of the Toms River. Pine Beach is a great place to raise
a family, with many schooling opportunities close by, or a great place to
retire. We are minutes to the ocean beaches and within easy commuting of New
York City and Philadelphia.
The location of Pine Beach is a draw for many, but the real
quality of our borough lies with its residents. Our residents take pride and
ownership in our borough. This is evidenced by the number of citizens who
volunteer for various projects including the annual Pine Beach 5k.
(pinebeach5k.com). If you would like to volunteer for any activity please
contact me, or anyone in borough hall.
We provide senior services with informational meetings,
lunches, and breakfast. Pine Beach also has numerous parks to stroll or run
through, play soccer, baseball, or basketball. Being located along the Toms
River we also provide bathing beaches with lifeguards during the summer months.
For those into sailing or boating the Pine Beach Yacht Club (pbycnj.com)
provides instructions for young and old.
I would invite you to take advantage of all that Pine Beach
has to offer and to enjoy “the Pearl of the Toms River.”
Sincerely,
Mayor Lawrence W. Cuneo
Pine Beach Adopt-a-Drain
Program
The Pine Beach Environmental Committee is
kicking off a Pine Beach Adopt-a-Drain
program. We are encouraging residents to
look after
their nearby storm drains and clear the top
grate and surrounding area of debris
year-round. Everything that is in the street
ends up in the Toms River and the Barnegat
Bay. Rainwater carries leaves, grass,
fertilizers, excess salt, trash and dirt
through the storm drain system directly to
our waters. Public works does a good job of
routinely clearing storm drains, you can
assist by keeping your storm drain grate
clear of debris.
Adopted
"your" storm drain by sweeping, raking,
and clearing leaves and other debris
from the surface of the drain
year-round. As a reminder, nothing
should ever be discarded into storm
drains, including waste oil, grass
clippings and pet waste.
Spread the word about the program. A
simple task can make a big impact on the
environment.
Remember, Only Rain Down the Drain!
