Get involved! - Participate on Committees
We have positions on our committees that assist with the broader work of Downtown Toms River and contribute to the revitalization
effort. Downtown Toms River’s committees meet on a regular basis and are involved
in providing direction for every aspect of the BID ’s activities.
Committee activities range from planning promotions, to developing programs
for attracting new businesses, to projects that improve the experience
for visitors to the area.
The five committees are:
- Organization
- Economic Reorganization
- Promotion
- Design
- Master Plan
