Rex the Wallaby is safe and sound "with the help of some really cool kids and a really cool dad, we caught Rex at the Walmart!"

For 24 hours Rex the Wallaby had a taste of freedom – escaping from the Lots of Love Farm animal sanctuary and hopping and jumping to the Walmart Supercenter on the Black Horse Pike in Williamstown one mile away by car but only a half-mile as the bird flies.

On a cold, gusty, winter evening Monday, Dec. 29, the three-year-old wallaby got free from an unlocked cage, but did not opt for a meal at the IHOP on Berlin-Cross Keys Road.

Instead, on Tuesday morning, a few residents spotted Rex in the parking lot of Walmart parking lot, thinking he was a kangaroo.

Earlier that morning, the farm owners and animal control officers had begun searching for the wandering wallaby, and on Tuesday night he was spotted behind a fence in a retention pond next to the store.

As we come to the end of 2025 and look forward to the new year, here’s a look back at Williamstown's top stories.

Courtesy of Monroe Township Police Department Honor Flight of Southern NJ is the only hub that services New Jersey veterans and holds two trips throughout the year – one in October and one in April - at Williamstown High School.

Honor Flight

It’s a patriotic sight to see when the Honor Flight of Southern NJ departs from and returns to Williamstown High School.

The chamber choir and band showcase their musical talents for the veterans. Students, staff, faculty, local businesses, organizations and members of the community are on hand for a block party to welcome them back.

The honor flights to Washington, D.C., evolved from a class project in 2008 through now retired educator Pam Pontano. She still co-leads the trips alongside her husband, Ron, along with Gretchen Czbas, chair of the social studies department at the high school.
