Why we wrote this page
Most people who see this sweepstakes have never heard of our school. That's expected: in 2026, most of our donors were new to us. So it's reasonable to ask whether a $40,000-plus vehicle giveaway from a small New Jersey school is real before you give us your card number.
It is real. A sweepstakes is how a small independent school can reach people far beyond its own families. Donations go to the school, the platform handles the entries and the drawing under its published rules, and a local dealer supplies the vehicle. Our first one, in 2026, drew 1,620 donations and paid its winner $17,118.75. The full result is published on this site.
If anything here doesn't check out, or you'd like to talk to a person, call the office or email us. You can also walk into Ocean County Powersports and ask about the sweepstakes.
