Haddonfield Little League
will begin its 2022 season with
“Baseball Night in Haddonfield”
on Friday, April 1.
What sports did you
play as a child?
“My sport was
softball,” says MARY
BLACKMAN
of Collingswood.
“I was in the town
league from fourth
grade through
eighth. I played
second base, and
loved it.”
“My older brothers
played baseball,”
says CONNOR
BULICKI of
Pennsauken, “so it
was only natural
that I would also. I
played for the Happy
Hippo Little League
team. Outfield.”
TERRY MONTANA
of Cherry Hill grew
up in Camden and
played baseball
“because there was
not much else to do.”
Terry played outfield,
and was “a pretty
good pitcher too.”
AMY CRUTCHFIELD
of Haddonfield
swam ... a lot. “I loved
swimming but I also
loved competing,”
she says. “I got a high
from the feeling of
accomplishment,
after spending so
much time training.”
As a youngster,
ANTONNE JONES
of Mt Laurel played
baseball, football,
and basketball.
“I played in the EOM
(Edward O’Malley)
League in South
Philly. First and
third base mostly.
Good times. Good
memories.”
Haddonfield’s
CHARLIE
PRESENZA
participates in
soccer, lacrosse,
cross-country, and
track. His favorite?
Lacrosse, “because
the uniforms and
equipment are really
cool. I think we have
our first game this
week.”

and we need your help.
The bulk of the funds that pay for the Independence Day
FIREWORKS and PARADE, the HALLOWEEN PARADE, the
TREE LIGHTING, and the SANTA PARADE come from NOT
from the Borough of Haddonfield, but from ...
YOU and your neighbors.
These events are planned and presented annually by volunteer
members of Haddonfield Celebrations Association, a 501(c)(3)
nonprofit organization. We’ve been doing this for nearly 80 years.
All of our events are free, but they cost over $45,000 a year to
run. (The fireworks alone cost $15,000).
Please Donate Now! Thank you!
Your generous contribution at this time will enable us to
plan this year’s community celebrations with confidence.
Please send your tax-deductible donation to Haddonfield
Celebrations Association, PO Box 15, Haddonfield NJ 08033, or
donate online via PayPal at HaddonfieldCelebrations.org.

SYMPHONY
IN C
.
Celebrate with the Symphony: 70!
Symphony in C will celebrate its 70th anniversary on Sun Apr 24 from 5 to
9pm at Tavistock Country Club.
The Symphony was founded as a community orchestra – the Haddonfield
Symphony – in 1952. Over time, its mission evolved into that of a training
orchestra for young professionals and a comprehensive music education
organization serving people of all ages throughout the region.
Symphony in C performs at Rutgers-Camden Center for the Arts and other
venues, and contributes to the quality of life we enjoy in Greater South Jersey.
The 70th Anniversary Gala will be chaired by Penny and Stephen E. Ryan of
Marlton and Rosie Hymerling of Haddonfield. Emcee will be former Haddonfield
mayor and Symphony in C board chair, Jack Tarditi.
Guests will enjoy cocktails, gourmet dinner with wine, and entertainment by
pianist David Zipse and the Elegance Electric String Quartet. Tavistock Country
Club’s Covid protocols in effect at the time of the event will be observed.
The gala will honor Charles (Chuck) Heuisler and C. Carney (Chick) Savery,
both of whom were instrumental in guiding the former Haddonfield Symphony
from community orchestra to the music education powerhouse it is today.
The event will also remember former board chairs and Archer Law attorneys
Robert R. Kugler and Lee Hymerling, who passed away in 2021.
Proceeds from the gala will support the Symphony’s Summer Camp, Youth
Orchestra, concerts for young people, and after-school instrumental music
programs in Camden and the region.
For Gala reservations and information, including details of sponsorship
opportunities, call Denise Stuart, vice president of development, at
856-240-1503 or email her at dstuart@symphonyinc.org.
Symphony in C is a New Jersey 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, so direct
donations are tax-deductible, as are substantial portions of ticket costs and
sponsorships for the gala.

3/19: Mayor’s
Breakfast
The Lions Club,
sponsors of the annual
Mayor’s Breakfast for
the past 30 years, has
rescheduled this year’s
event to Sat Mar 19.
The location is the
Presbyterian Church’s
Fellowship Hall. Start
time: 9am.
The reason for the
postponement (from Sat
Jan 22) was the Club’s
concern for the health
of those attending, given
the recent dramatic
increase in cases of
Covid-related illness and
hospitalization.
The Lions Club is
putting plans in place to
ensure that appropriate
social distancing will
be possible. Masks and
proof of vaccination will
be required.
Those who attend
the Breakfast can
look forward to some
enhanced features
related to the Citizen of
the Year award.
The first award was
presented in 1973 and
2022 marks the 50th
anniversary, so the Lions
want to honor not only
this year’s recipient,
but also give special
recognition to past
recipients who are able
to attend.
In addition to the
Citizen of the Year
award, the Lions will
present the William
Hansen Youth of the Year
award to Maddie Cush,
president of the Leo Club
at the High School.
Tickets for the
Breakfast are $15 ($10
for those age 12 and
under). Exception: There
may be no such thing
as a free lunch, but
former Citizens get to eat
breakfast for free.

Lectures about the Revolution
Camden County College and the Skirmish
Committee are preparing to present a series of
lectures about the American Revolution, from the
perspective of our communities.
The series is part of the build-up for the Sat Jun 4
Skirmish on Kings Highway.
The series begins with a lecture on Wed Mar 30
at 7pm at the Masonic Temple (16 Kings Hwy E).
Garry Stone will describe the life of John Inskeep
(born near Haddonfield in 1757).
Inskeep volunteered in June 1776 to serve five
months in a temporary regiment sent to help
defend New York City. In fact, he served for the
next two years – as a militia cavalry man, artillerist,
quartermaster, and commissary.
He was at the battles of Princeton, Billingsport,
and Fort Mercer. Later he served as a quartermaster
for Continental Army.
His story is a vivid illustration of the ways the
American Revolution affected South Jersey.
Lecturer Garry Stone has a PhD in American
Studies from the University of Pennsylvania.
His entire career focuses on researching,
restoring, and interpreting historic sites and
landscapes.
He has served as chief archaeologist and then
director of research at Historic St. Mary’s City,
Maryland, historian at Monmouth Battlefield
State Park and historian at the Indian King Tavern
Museum in Haddonfield.
He is the author of numerous articles on
archaeology and history and a contributing author
of Fatal Sunday: George Washington, the Monmouth
Campaign, and the Politics of Battle.
The second lecture in the series, in the Borough
Hall at 7pm on Wed Apr 6, will be presented by
Doug Rauschenberger,
He will talk about life in Haddonfield during the
American Revolution.
Details about the Skirmish, and the lecture
series in particular, may be found here n, or on the
website of the Friends of the Indian Kings Tavern
Museum: IndianKingFriends.org.

Citizen of the Year
Saturday, March 19, 2022 at 9a
In January 1973, the Haddonfield Jaycees held a breakfast at the
First Baptist Church in honor of Mayor Eugene V. Hinski.
Also honored with a “special service award” was “an outstanding
citizen” – David J. Finn Sr.
Thus began two traditions that the Jaycees carried on through
1991, and that the Lions Club has continued since 1992.
On Saturday, March 19, 2022 at 9a.m., the 49th * Mayor’s Breakfast
will be held at the First Presbyterian Church, in Fellowship Hall.
During the Breakfast, Mayor Colleen Bianco Bezich will name
the 52nd * Haddonfield Citizen of the Year and join with her fellow
Commissioners to deliver a State of the Borough report. The William
G. Hansen Youth of the Year Award will be presented to Maddie
Cush, president of the Leo Club at Memorial High School.
We invite you to join us for this 50th anniversary celebration.
Admission is $15 at the door. (Age 12 and under $10.)
* Because of Covid-19, a Mayor’s Breakfast was not held in 2021.
** There were two recipients of the award in 1993, and also in 2004.

WHO ARE LIONS?
The International Association
of Lions Clubs was established in
Chicago in 1917 to address social
problems created by World War I and
rapid industrialization. By 1920, there
were clubs in 23 states and Canada
with more than 6,400 members.
During the 1925 Lions International
Convention, Helen Keller challenged
Lions to become “knights of the blind
in the crusade against darkness.”
Thus began a global commitment to
issues related to sight and blindness, a
focus that members of the Haddonfield
Lions Club have embraced since its
founding in 1944.
There are currently 1.4 million Lions
in 48,000 clubs in some 200 countries
– men and women taking action and
making a positive impact in
their own communities
and around the world,
inspired by the motto
“We Serve.”
JOIN US IN SERVICE!
Typically, we meet on the first and
third Thursday of each month, at
6:15p.m., at Tavistock Country Club.
Those interested in learning about
who we are and what we do are
always welcome.
For more information about our
Club and its activities, or to inquire
about membership, send an email to

A survey for “junior” seniors
The Mabel Kay Senior Center has created a survey geared toward “younger
seniors” – a subjective term, of course – to see what kinds of programming
might incline them to visit a senior center.
Among the questions: What would it take to get you in its doors? Day trips?
Behind-the- scenes tours of local eateries (with samples)? Learning a new skill?
Teaching a new skill? Exercise classes? Volunteer opportunities? Pickleball?
Let Mabel Kay know what would entice you. The more feedback, the better
the Senior Center can be! (No interest whatsoever in attending activities and
events at a senior center? Let them know why ... you won’t hurt their feelings).
Access the survey here: XXX or scan the QR code n with your phone or
tablet. (Open the camera and aim the camera at the QR code. Your phone
should offer you the option to open a link. Tap the link and it will take you
directly to the survey. Need assistance? Call Sheri Siegel at 856-354-8789.

Last Man’s Dinner: April 5
On April 22, 1940, during a gathering to celebrate
the 21st anniversary of the formation of Haddonfield
American Legion Post 38, 108 veterans of the Great
War organized themselves into a Last Man’s Club.
They identified four purposes:
• To preserve our memories of 1917-18
• To pay fitting tribute to our departed comrades
• To foster and perpetuate good comradeship
• To eat drink and be merry.
The charter called for “a bottle of rare brandy ...
to remain unopened until our ranks have thinned to
the last three men,” at which time “the bottle shall
be opened and a toast offered to those comrades
who have gone before.”
The 81st Last Man’s Dinner will be held at the
Tavistock Country Club on Tue Apr 5, at 6pm
(social hour) and 7pm (dinner). All are welcome.
The event honors local veterans of all American
wars, in particular those who are members of the
various “Last Man” clubs established by Post 38 in
the wake of various conflicts.
Three members of the World War II Last Man’s
Club remain: Don Beck, John Brownwell, and Tom
Reilly.
Tickets are $50 and include valet parking. To
purchase, mail a check payable to “Last Man’s Club/
American Legion Post 38” to David Tarditi,
64 Linden Avenue, Haddonfield NJ 08033.
