SPRING LAKE — Director Thomas Arnone, liaison to the Division of Tourism for Monmouth County Commissioners, kicked-off the summer season with Spring Lake governmental and business leaders at a press conference Tuesday at the North End Pavilion at Spring Lake Beach.
“Summer 2022 was incredibly successful, with more than $29 million reported in beach revenue in Monmouth County,” said Commissioner Director Thomas A. Arnone, liaison to the Division of Tourism. “In 2022, beach revenue saw a five percent increase over 2021 beach revenue at roughly $27.5 million,” said Mr. Arnone in his opening remarks.
“May gets me thinking about the long summer to come such as hanging out at the beach and outdoor dining,” said Spring Lake Mayor Jennifer Naughton. “This is the magic of these small towns along the beach. They all have their own personalities and offerings to residents and visitors alike.”
“I want to thank the Monmouth County Division of Tourism for the donations you have made to our festivals,” said Ellen Manger, Executive Director of the Greater Spring Lake Chamber of Commerce. “Our Chamber is a collaborative effort among Spring Lake, Spring Lake Heights, Lake Como and Sea Girt. We let people know we have everything they would want here. This is a wonderful place and I tell everyone who comes here, ‘You will be back.’”
