The Marlton Senior Citizen Club’s book sale on Aug. 6 was a great success, so now the club is looking to see its membership thrive and grow.

“I couldn’t believe the amount of people,” said club member Elaine Nelson of those in attendance. "We had 12 tables of books and people were just loving the books. We had every book you could think of, from children’s books to science fiction to ‘how to’ books, history books, nonfiction, fiction… It was pretty much every book you could think of.”

The club made around $400 from their first book sale. It was originally going to be just a swap between members, but they decided to open it up to the public. So many books were donated to the sale that the club has plenty left over, so they’re looking to have another one. To see so many people come out for the event was both shocking and surprising, Nelson said, but it was great that the community came out for it and it brought more awareness to the club.

Healing Art for a Hero’s Heart (HA4HH), a unique program that combines art, gratitude and community, will collaborate with MISSION BBQ in Marlton to host something special for military, police, fire and first responders on Friday, Sept. 11, from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m.

HA4HH was initiated in 2019 as a passion project by Amy Bash - a proud military spouse - when her husband, a recently retired lieutenant colonel in the Army Reserves, deployed to Kuwait with his unit for almost a year. At the time, Bash was involved with the Voorhees Arts Center and Gallery at the Echelon Mall. The timing was such that she realized that active military members would be missing out on the most important moments of their lives, including holidays, family celebrations and milestones.

On any summer morning along New Jersey’s coast, you’ll find people casting lines from the surf, dropping bait from small boats, or simply standing at the water’s edge, waiting. Fishing here is a tradition, a livelihood, and can be a way for people to learn about and come to care for the environment.
