FuzzFest is the name of our annual rock concert at Camp Adventure – a camp for children coping with cancer. It’s a place of recovery, fun and friendship. The camp’s FuzzFest show originated in 2004 and has had many artists donate their time to rock the kids!! This rock show is an immersive experience including an official t-shirt. Now, thanks to Mr. Beery’s and our friends at Papa G Music Productions who performed for the children at camp this year, we bring to you a benefit concert to support the kids!!
Please note that Mr.Beery’s is a bar and this is not a kid-friendly event. This is fun and responsible adult night out – and a great way to rock while supporting our children and family programs.

The BlueClaws been the Jersey Shore’s top stop for affordable, family entertainment here at the Jersey Shore – a responsibility we don’t take lightly – and we thank you for your support since 2001. Over the years, fans have seen some very special moments and some very special players. For example:

Two Phillies legends, Ryan Howard (2002) and Cole Hamels (2003) both played here. We retired both of their numbers as well, with Howard’s #29 being retired in 2010 and Hamels’ #19 being retired in 2014.
We have won three South Atlantic League Championships – 2006, 2009, and 2010 – and played for another in 2016, falling in the Championship Series to Rome.
Through 2018, we have drawn over 7.3-million fans to FirstEnergy Park – and we look forward to reaching the 8-million fan plateau soon!

Shore Town Baseball, a group led by Minor League Baseball veteran Art Matin that also includes several local partners, acquired the BlueClaws late in 2017 and they have immediately put their stamp on the BlueClaws.
The BlueClaws opened a brand-new Mini Golf Course, Home Run Pavilion (boardwalk game area), and Biergarten in 2018 and in 2019 will open brand new, revamped picnic areas.
