2008 Lighthouse Challenge A Success!


The 2008 New Jersey Lighthouse Challenge® is in the books and by all accounts it was very successful!  Over the course of the weekend, a combined total of 27,901 people were recorded visiting all 13 sites.  Of the 2,213 participants who started the Challenge, 1,695 completed with 163 Dual Challenge finishers and 81 Triple Challenge finishers.

We would like to share with you one of the e-mails we received from a participant thanking us for putting on the Challenge.  Dave Munyan wrote:

 
Getting up at 5:30 am and leaving the house at 6:02 am Sunday the 19th of October…...$0
   
Fuel needed for the 430 mile journey.......$86  
     
Donations to each of the lights we visited.......$110  
   
The look on my son David's face, after completing the 2008 NJ Lighthouse Challenge, in ONE day...PRICELESS!!   
     

Thank you to all of the volunteers who helped to make this year’s Challenge such a success.  Your time, your energy and your efforts are, well…priceless.
