Red Bank Ladder 91 Hosts Third Annual Comedy Night Featuring Doug Karpf to Support Volunteer Firefighters

Get ready for an evening full of laughter and community spirit—Red Bank Ladder 91 is gearing up for its Third Annual Comedy Night, a beloved local tradition that brings humor and heart together for a great cause. The show will take place on Friday, November 15, 2025, at the Red Bank Elks Lodge #233, located at 40 West Front Street, Red Bank, New Jersey 07701.

The event will feature stand-up comedian Doug Karpf, a New Jersey–based performer known for his sharp wit and upbeat stage presence. Doug has performed at venues across the tri-state area, including charity shows, comedy clubs, and private events, and he’s making his return to Red Bank for this annual fundraiser. You can learn more about his work on his official website or follow his upcoming events on social media.

Doors open at 7:00 PM, with the show kicking off promptly at 8:00 PM. Guests are encouraged to arrive early to grab their seats and enjoy some pre-show camaraderie. Seating is limited, and this event has sold out in past years—so it’s smart to grab tickets early.

The Comedy Night is organized to support the Navesink Hook & Ladder Company, one of the volunteer fire companies that make up the Red Bank Volunteer Fire Department. Proceeds from the evening go directly toward maintaining equipment, training, and resources that help the dedicated volunteers continue serving the Red Bank community.

“This is one of our favorite nights of the year,” shared Jim Coakley, President of Navesink Hook & Ladder Co. “It’s a fun way for the community to come together, enjoy a great show, and support the volunteers who dedicate their time to keeping Red Bank safe.”

The event’s success each year depends on generous local sponsorships. This year’s Comedy Night is supported by 26 West on the Navesink, Georgetown Men’s Shop, and the Red Bank PBA, whose contributions help make the night possible. These partnerships highlight the strong bond between Red Bank’s small businesses and its volunteer organizations.

The Red Bank Elks Lodge, the event’s host venue, is itself a hub of community gatherings and charity events throughout the year. You can explore upcoming events at the lodge by visiting the Red Bank Elks official website.

If you’re looking for a fun Friday night that blends laughter, community pride, and heartfelt support for local heroes, this is an event you won’t want to miss. Grab your friends, reserve your seats, and get ready for a night that proves—once again—that Red Bank knows how to have fun while giving back.
