Leggetts Sand Bar

LADACIN Network, a local nonprofit, is set to make a splash as participants prepare to brave the cold and take the plunge to support individuals with disabilities. This highly anticipated event is scheduled for January 17, 2026, at Manasquan Main Beach, to raise funds for LADACIN Network. 
The event will support LADACIN’s educational, therapeutic, social, residential and support services for over 3,500 infants, children and adults with complex physical and developmental disabilities or delays living in Monmouth and Ocean Counties.
All proceeds from the event support the J. Michael Hartnett Memorial to benefit LADACIN Network. Since the inaugural Plunge in 2009, the annual Plunge has raised over 1.4 million dollars for the Agency. 
Joseph J. Russell, Jr., Esq., of Manasquan, Shareholder and Chair of the Family Law Department at Wilentz, Goldman &amp; Spitzer P. A., Eatontown, and Woodbridge, founded and continues to coordinate the event. His cousin, Elizabeth Hartnett, is a client of LADACIN Network, and has inspired his involvement in supporting the Agency. Elizabeth’s father, J. Michael Hartnett, was a long-time Agency Board member and advocate for people with disabilities.
Leggett’s Sand Bar &amp; Restaurant, 217 First Avenue, Manasquan will host the post- plunge festivities. All Plungers will be treated to a 2-hour open buffet at Leggett’s. Pre-registration is strongly encouraged online and on-site registration will begin at Leggett’s at 10:30 am on January 17th. At 12:00 pm, participants will plunge into the Atlantic Ocean. There will be a 50/50 raffle and prizes will be awarded to the top three individuals/teams who display the most creative costumes. 
To sponsor the event, support a plunger, donate online, pre-register for the event or create your own fundraising page, go to: <a href="https://ladacin.org/event/2026-ladacin-plunge/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">https://ladacin.org/event/2026-ladacin-plunge/</a>

Dogtopia – Dog Daycare, Boarding, Spa & Wellness

Dogtopia of Shrewsbury

At Dogtopia, we believe your pup deserves the absolute best in care, safety, and play. Whether you’re dropping off for a few hours of play, an overnight stay, or a relaxing spa treatment, Dogtopia is your dog’s home away from home. Our dog daycare provides a safe, supervised, and engaging environment where dogs can enjoy off-leash play in spacious playrooms designed for their comfort. Each playroom is separated by size and temperament, ensuring every pup is paired with the right friends for safe socialization. Our highly trained Canine Coaches are always on hand to encourage good behavior, monitor interactions, and provide lots of love and attention. Dogtopia isn’t just about play — it’s about wellness, too. A day at Dogtopia helps your dog stay active, burn off energy, and return home happy and relaxed. To support overall health, we offer the DASH Activity Collar — a daycare-approved smart collar. DASH tracks your dog’s activity levels, rest, and wellness, giving you valuable insights into their health and behavior both at Dogtopia and at home. It’s another way we make sure your pup is not only having fun, but thriving. Our boarding services give dogs a chance to enjoy all-day play and restful nights under the care of our trusted team. And if your dog needs a little pampering, our spa services include baths, brush-outs, nail trims, and more, so they’ll look and feel their best. As pet parents ourselves, we know safety and transparency matter. That’s why every Dogtopia location is equipped with webcams, allowing you to check in on your pup throughout the day. Our facilities are sanitized with pet-safe cleaning products, and our staff is trained in canine behavior, first aid, and safety protocols. At Dogtopia, we’re passionate about giving dogs the love, exercise, and socialization they need to thrive — while giving pet parents peace of mind. Discover why so many families trust us as their dog’s second home.
