There will be a beer and wine garden provided by Windward Tavern available for guests ages 21 and over (valid ID is required to enter the garden).<\/p>\n<p>Especially with Summerfest coinciding with the July 4 holiday this year, it is likely to draw a significant crowd, meaning the township\u2019s complimentary shuttle bus service will be the best way to get to the park and avoid a traffic and parking issue.<\/p>\n<p>The complimentary shuttle bus service will transport people <strong>to and from the following locations:<\/strong> Brick Township High School, Drum Point Elementary School, Lanes Mill Elementary School, Midstreams Elementary School and Veterans Memorial Middle School. Trips to Windward Beach <strong>begin at 5 p.m.<\/strong> and <strong>continue until 8 p.m. Return trips begin at 8 p.m.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u201cAnyone planning on attending Summerfest is strongly encouraged to use the Shuttle Buses,\u201d the township said in an announcement. \u201cParking at Windward Beach is very limited and fills up early.
