Special Services Spotlight

We recently had the opportunity to attend a presentation by the creator of the Field of Dreams complex in Toms River. If you're not already aware, The Toms River Field of Dreams (TRFOD) is a project with a mission to encourage and engage our communities (Monmouth and Ocean Counties), with a focus on those with special needs, in physical and social activity by building a community complex to provide opportunities for special needs individuals of all ages and abilities to engage, explore and socialize together.
