About the event location:
The Monmouth Boat Club was listed on PNJ’s 2025 10 Most Endangered Historic Places.
The Monmouth Boat Club, listed on the National and New Jersey Registers of Historic Places, is one of the oldest yacht clubs in the U.S. and the last surviving 19th-century waterfront structure on the Navesink River. Built on wooden pilings, the building is leaning and threatened by flooding, hurricanes, and climate-related damage. Urgent foundation repairs are needed to preserve this historic landmark and prevent its loss to development. Saving the club protects New Jersey’s maritime heritage and ensures future generations can continue to connect with this cultural and community icon.
