These sessions included an obstacle course and carnival games made out of large recyclable materials like large food cans, cardboard boxes, and old toys.

Broadway Shows Bus Trip to NYC
Choose from two great shows! 
Kiss Me, Kate or Disney's Aladdin on Saturday, March 2nd.

Kiss Me, Kate - In the constellation of musical comedy masterpieces, Kiss Me, Kate shines on perhaps Broadway's most sparkling achievement. This is the winner of the first-ever Tony Award® for Best Musical, alive with onstage romance, backstage passion, comedy high and low, a hilarious dash of Shakespeare's Shrew, and the songwriting genius of Cole Porter at his stylish, sexy, sophisticated best. Once again, Roundabout catapults you to a musical comedy heaven, with a brand-new Kiss Me, Kate. In Cole Porter's sparkling 1948 musical, the warring lovers of The Taming of Shrew are causing trouble both onstage and off. While putting on a musical version of Shakespeare's play, exes Fred Graham (Will Chase) and Lilli Vanessi (Kelli O'Hara) can't decide if they're enraged, enamored or enormously confused whenever they cross paths out of character. 

Disney's Aladdin - Experience a whole new world in a whole new way! The beloved story is brought to thrilling theatrical life in this bold musical. With just one rub of a magic lamp, Aladdin's journey sweeps you into an exotic world full of daring adventure, classic comedy, and timeless romance. It's an unforgettable experience that includes all the cherished songs from the Academy Award®-winning score and more written especially for Broadway. 

This stage production is directed and choreographed by Tony Award® winner Casey Nicholaw, and composed by Tony Award winner Alan Menken. It features lyrics penned by the legendary Howard Ashman and Tony Award® winner Tim Rice, with book and additional lyrics by Chad Beguelin. Aladdin  also showcases an incomparable design team with exquisite sets, costumes, and lighting by multiple Tony Award winners Bob Crowley, Gregg Barnes, and Natasha Katz.

Helping a Homeless Vet Drains Roxbury Social Services Account
When Roxbury Social Services Director Janet Wald learned about the Vietnam veteran living in his car, Wald did what she usually does: Everything she could to help.  Her efforts aided the fellow, at least temporarily, but they also pretty much wiped out the money Social Services sets aside for temporary housing of the homeless.  The matter was raised by Roxbury Councilman Bob DeFillippo at a recent meeting of the Roxbury Mayor and Council. He asked Roxbury residents to donate some money to help replenish Wald's temporary housing account.  "Social Services could really use some help, so I'm giving a shout-out to the community," Defillippo said. "Janet could use some donations ... to replenish that housing budget." Click here to read more from Tap Into Roxbury about this Vets story and how you can help Roxbury Social Services.

Roxbury Officials Urge Everybody to Create 'Smart 911' Profile
All Roxbury residents are being asked to sign-in to a new "smart" 911 database, especially those who rely solely on cell phones and do not have "copper-wire" home phones.  The new system, unveiled in May by Morris County, allows emergency first-responders to associate addresses with cell phone numbers. It also allows people to create profiles that can include important details such as medical requirements, the presence of pets and special access codes for gates and security systems, said Roxbury Department of Public Works Director Rick Blood.

Roxbury Firehouse Has High Hopes for Vendor Fair - Nov 3
Roxbury Fire Company 1 in Succasunna is hosting a vendor fair in November, something organizer Jennifer Markle hopes will be a successful fundraiser for the group of volunteer first-responders.  Markle, a Succasunna resident who has been a firefighter with Company 1 for almost 10 years, said the she and her colleagues would love to see at least 50 small businesses participate in the Nov. 3 event.  The fair will take place in the firehouse on Main Street, said Markle - who also serves as manager of the building's rental hall. It will run from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m.  The firefighters are considering expanding the event to include food trucks and other attractions outside the firehouse - maybe even getting township permission to close Main Street for a bit, she said.

Hundreds of Lake Hopatcong Cleanup Volunteers Needed - Nov 3
As the Lake Hopatcong community prepares for a 60-inch drawdown this fall - done by the state once every five years - the Lake Hopatcong Foundation is calling for volunteers to help remove debris from the exposed lake bed during a Lake Hopatcong Lake-Wide Cleanup to be held on Saturday, Nov. 3.

This year, the Lake Hopatcong Foundation is working in partnership with the Lake Hopatcong Commission to again bring residents together to remove accumulated litter and help make the lake a healthier place.  To coordinate the removal of all the debris, the Foundation will work in partnership with the Morris and Sussex Counties' Clean Communities programs, as well as the Departments of Public Works in Hopatcong, Jefferson, Mt. Arlington, and Roxbury.  Bridgestone Tire will be recycling tires pulled from the lake.

The Foundation is trying to recruit 40-to-50 team leaders and hundreds of volunteers. Local groups and organizations are encouraged to assemble cleanup teams. Click here for more information from the Morris County Government website.

Growing Roxbury tradition: Roxbury's Home for the Holidays Street Festival
The fourth annual "Home For The Holidays" event is coming to Roxbury Township.

Of course, the event is held in December. This year, it is planned for Saturday, Dec. 1. December is, if nothing else, always unpredictable. Last year, the weather was fairly mild, and a good time was seemed to be had by all. But, it's a big risk. If the weather is two degrees, or if there's an ice, sleet or snow storm, this event could easily be a complete bust. We guess that's not really any different than its companion event, Olde Suckasunny Day, held each September. Click here to read more from the Roxbury Register.

Vendor/crafter registrations are still be accepted the Saturday, December 1st event.  Go to  www.roxburynj.us/holidays  to get registration form. 

New this year: A contest for the most festive holiday-decorated/themed vendor booth. The winner gets a free booth at next year's event.  This family-friendly holiday street fair will run from 11 a.m. until 4 p.m. along Main Street in Succasunna by the Roxbury Public Library and churches.  Stockton Carriage Tours will be back offering free carriage rides with jingle-belled horses - sponsored by the Roxbury Area Chamber of Commerce and the Roxbury Rotary Club.
