👨👩👧👦 Family Events Tips for Barnegat Light
- •Shore family events cluster activities in short windows (character appearances, contests, crafts) — screenshot the schedule so you're not hunting for a posted flyer with kids in tow.
- •Face painting, balloon, and craft lines are shortest right when the event opens.
- •Pick a visible landmark as a meetup spot when you arrive; boardwalk events get dense enough to lose sight of each other fast.
- •Parking in Barnegat Light: Free parking. No parking on Central Ave/West 4th St June-October.
