Last December, we announced that we could not conduct our normal fundraiser in September due to the lingering risk from the COVID-19 pandemic. As an alternate method to raise funds, we also announced the sale of engraved paver bricks to pave the sidewalks surrounding the museum. This will be a long term program. We had enthusiastic initial support for this proposal. At this time we have installed 123 personalized pavers in front of the museumTo keep the momentum going, we want to bring this program to your attention again.
Those of you familiar with the museum’s grounds know that our Dock Road and West Avenue sidewalks consist of paving stones; We will be offering engraved bricks at a cost of $120 each for the 9” x 6” bricks. Each brick will allow for the use of up to 4 lines, with 17 characters per line. A character can be a letter, a number, a punctuation mark or a space. Each line is automatically centered and all letters are capitalized. Installation of these bricks will be scheduled not less than twice annually.
This is an example of how the pavers look
.
The bricks can be inscribed with whatever message you want – a memorial, a celebration of life, a dedication. An order form has been created to submit your brick order. You can download it using the link below. We haven’t come up with an on-line order form using our website donation process (yes, we are working on it). In the meantime, please download this form, fill it in and mail it (or drop it off) with your check to the museum’s Beach Haven address at the top of the form.

We appreciate all the support our members and friends have given to the museum over the years. We hope you will help us on this fund drive as well. Thanks in advance for buying a brick.
