Since 1989, the City of Brigantine has been involved in the Brigantine Beach Triathlon. Every year since its inception, the race has benefited various entities on Brigantine Beach including the Marine Mammal Stranding Center, the American Red Cross, the Brigantine Board of Education and the Brigantine Community Education and Recreation Department (CER). Local Police, Fire, EMS. Department of Public Works, the Beach Patrol, Emergency Management, the NJ State Police, US Coast Guard, the City Manager and City Council and Mayor of Brigantine are all intimately involved in making this race a success, year after year.
After a two year hiatus, the City of Brigantine has partnered with Green Whales, Inc. to bring this event back to Brigantine! We are very excited for this joint venture to continue supporting the local community.
The several hundred athletes of all different abilities, will participate in Saturday’s event which kicks off with a ¼ mile swim in the bay, beginning at the 26th St. S. City Dock area. The race is then followed by a scenic 11 mile bike ride around the Island of Brigantine. The athletes return to 26th St. S. City Dock area where they will drop their bikes and don their running shoes for a 4 mile run to the North end of Brigantine and back finishing at the 26th St. S. Recreation Complex.
After the event all athletes will have time to relax at the 26th Street Recreation Complex with lunch, a DJ, and awards ceremony.
Green Whales, Inc. and the City of Brigantine are looking for local sponsors to support this event. With the influx of athletes in town for this race our local businesses are expected to have a busy weekend! Each sponsor will have the availability to put flyers and samples in the swag bags as well as have their logo on the participant and volunteer shirts.
As always, we are looking for volunteers to assist in the success of the race. In June/July, Green Whales, Inc., will have a table at the Brigantine Farmers Market to talk about this event and sign up volunteers. We will also have a volunteers meeting in July at the Brigantine Community Center. Please come back often to find out the dates of these events.
Sponsor signups are available through July 1st and volunteer signups are available through July 31st. Please sign up through the link below.
