THANK YOU to everyone who came out and made Sailfest such an incredible day!

To everyone who shopped our 130+ vendors, supported local, ate, drank and danced along with our amazing bands, watched the sailing races, and joined us for our 9/11 Remembrance Ceremony — we are so grateful.

What many people may not realize is that Sailfest is organized each year by just a handful of local Rotarians, along with incredible volunteers and community partners.

And it’s all for a reason: all proceeds from Sailfest benefit our local community through the Rotary Club of Toms River Charitable Fund.

To our vendors, sponsors, performers, volunteers, first responders, the Island Heights community, and everyone who spent the day with us — THANK YOU for supporting Sailfest and our community.

See you next year! ⛵ SupportLocal JerseyShore OceanCountyNJ RotaryInAction ServiceAboveSelf
