Community
Although a small organization Citytri is making strides to work with community partners. We are proud to have a relationship with them and strive to make the events as meaningful for them as they are for the rest of us. Below is a list of the organizations that we work with and a brief description of our relationship. Bass River State Forest Bass River State Forest was the first forest acquired by the state of New Jersey in 1905 for public recreation, water conservation, and wildlife and timber management. Lake Absegami, a 67-acre lake created in the 1930's, is the center of the forest's recreational activities and provides an area for swimming and a serene setting for boating and canoeing. A trail through the Absegami Natural Area wanders through a pine/oak woods and a small Atlantic white cedar bog.
Both George Reagan and Alejandra Jimenez spent endless summers biking, running, and swimming in and around this park. The clear water, quiet yet very accessible area, and friendly community were all that they needed when deciding on what would become the Bassman Triathlon & Duathlon. Although the forest is run by the NJ State Department of Environmental Protection’s Department of Parks and Recreation donations help with some of the smaller initiatives required to make things even more special. Citytri is committed to helping out in this area by contributing after every race.
