What is the Lighthouse Challenge?
The New Jersey Lighthouse Challenge® (a/k/a Lighthouse Challenge and the Challenge) is a non-profit event sponsored by the New Jersey Lighthouse Society (a/k/a NJLHS and the Society) for the purpose of raising awareness of and educating the public about lighthouses in general and New Jersey’s lighthouses, specifically. It is a two day event during which participants are “challenged” to visit each of New Jersey’s 11 land based lighthouses and 2 1st Order Fresnel Lenses on display at the Barnegat Historical Museum and the Cape May County Historical Museum. In 2009, we are celebrating our 10th Anniversary of presenting this event. To celebrate, we have added a Bonus Site – Ludlam’s Beach and two Bonus boat trips. Please see the Challenge Home Page for additional information. At each site, you will receive a souvenir token of that lighthouse/lens, courtesy of the New Jersey Lighthouse Society. Please note that each participant must be present at each site to receive the souvenir token. You
