All proceeds from this event benefit Elks Camp Moore, the New Jersey Elks State Project.

Tucked away in the hill of the Ramapo Mountains, Elks Camp Moore offers a fun filled vacation away from home for children with special needs. A week at Elks Camp Moore is a remarkable experience not soon to be forgotten. The primary goal of the camp is to further develop the recreational and social skills of each child. In a relaxed and accepting atmosphere , each camper experiences new adventures, lasting friendships, and opportunities that promote independence and greater self-confidence.

Campers attend Elks Camp Moore at no charge to the families. Throughout the plunge season, each Elks lodge helps raise the funds needed to cover all camp costs. The lodge that raises the most during plunge season is announced at the John Sentner Memorial Plunge.

The Toms River Elks Lodge has been amongst the top three lodges in the state in terms of fundraising for Elks Camp Moore for seven years now. The 2024-25 Toms River Elks Plunge Committee strives to continue this tradition.
