Location

We will be staying at two beach houses generously donated by Erika Aaron and Marc Fliegelman, located in High Bar Harbor and Barnegat Light, Long Beach Island, NJ. This time of year, the beach is serene, filled with the sounds of the birds and water, and quietly welcoming us to its off-season beauty.

Our time together will be equally divided between the two houses, ¼ mile apart, connected by a flat, paved road, an estimated 20-minute walk or 5-minute drive. Beach access is available. Ample parking is available at both beach houses. We will arrange for shared carpooling between the houses.

Everyone is welcome.
