The Shark River Hills Property Owners’ Association was founded in 1923 and incorporated in 1932. The association is a nonprofit, nonpartisan organization striving to better community life in Shark River Hills. Meetings are held at the Shark River Hills Fire House on Brighton Avenue the fourth Tuesday of the month at 7:30 P.M., unless otherwise noted or announced. Membership is open to all residents and/or owners of property in Shark River Hills. New members are always welcome.

The Coaster, a paid, family-operated weekly newspaper covering the central Monmouth County area, posted an article this week on how the Shark River Hills Property Owners Association is celebrating its 85th anniversary.

An excerpt from the article:

The association represents about 265 families and issues a monthly newsletter keeping its membership up to date on important issues.

“We hold food drives, hold open forums for our members on important issues that affect our residents,” Collins said.

In addition to holding many informational forums on a variety of issues during the year, the association also maintains the Memorial Park on South Riverside Drive by planting flowers and shrubs and providing the flags for the flag pole.

“If you live in the hills come join up and meet your neighbors,” Collins said.

To join the SRHPOA telephone Collins at 732-774-2695 or send $10 for a yearly membership to SRHPOA, P.O. Box 68, Neptune, NJ 07754.

For additional information, a recent letter from SRHPOA President, JoAnne Collins, appears in the Ocean Grove Record.
