Asbury Park New Jersey Crewneck Sweatshirts
Description: The Sunshine In (yes, one 'n' – it's an Aquarian thing) opened its doors as a concert venue in the summer of 1970 in Asbury Park, New Jersey. Housed in an old concrete block building with a high wooden, open rafter type ceiling that used to be a municipal bus garage, the Sunshine was bare bones to say the least. The building stood on Kingsley Street, and despite having no bar, they did alright as a strict music venue as the block had bars a plenty, and concert goers patronized them between sets. All told, the Sunshine In hosted countless acts between 1970 and 1974, many of them bands and singers that remain well known today. The venue had a unique sound that can still be experienced through live recordings from various concerts.
Description: Action Park was an amusement and water park located in Vernon Township, New Jersey, United States, on the grounds of the Vernon Valley/Great Gorge ski resort. The park consisted primarily of water-based attractions and originally opened to the public in 1978, under the ownership of Great American Recreation (GAR). Many of its attractions were unique, attracting thrill-seekers from across the New York metropolitan area. Action Park's popularity went hand-in-hand with a reputation for poorly designed rides, under-trained and under-aged staff, intoxicated guests and staff, and a consequently poor safety record. At least six people are known to have died as a result of mishaps on rides at the park.
Description: Tilly is the unofficial mascot of Asbury Park, New Jersey. He is a familiar face in town and based on a real person. The face is on buildings all over town and on lots of merchandise--from books, to pencils, to stickers--lots of stickers. The real person behind the face was either instrumental in founding the city in the late 19th century, or a relative of such person. Either way, his image is alive and well at this storied Jersey Shore destination!

Description: The Shore's surf culture can be traced back to the '60s, when Greg "Grog" Mesanko of Toms River, New Jersey hit the waves at Casino Pier with his crew. He would go on to establish what would become the Shore's premier surf shop, Grog's Surf Palace, in Seaside Park in 1970. Grog's became somewhat of a clubhouse for local surfers and played a huge part in promoting the New Jersey surfing scene, sponsoring many contests and events along the way.
