Veterans Tribute Grows at the Ocean County Library Waretown Branch
WARETOWN – A year ago, a small photo array in the Ocean County Library Waretown Branch honored several former military members in honor of Veterans Day. Today, thanks to community members who have added to it, the display fills an entire wall and is still growing.
Branch Manager Jennifer Lennon placed the first photos before Veterans Day 2023, a gesture for family members and friends who “wore the colors.” It caught the attention of patrons, visitors and neighbors who asked if they might contribute.
“We still have people coming in and taking time to look over the pictures,” Jennifer said. “They ask if everyone is local. Some ask to be added. It makes me happy every time it happens.”
There now are 55 images of local wartime and peacetime veterans, five times the size of the original display, complete with names, branches, and theaters of operation.
“I grew up in a military family. My dad, uncle and grandfather all served. So I have always had a very healthy respect for the military and its traditions,”…

The New York City-born artist and actor describes his exhibit as an invitation to “reflect, reconnect, and remember that where there is water, there is life – and with it, the hope for renewal.” He describes his artistic philosophy as “empathy, ecology and the interconnectedness of life – ‘ecosystem over egotism’.”
Alexander takes his affinity a step further, mixing purified water from the Atlantic Ocean into his palette for striking colors and textures and thought-provoking interpretations of the beauty, power and vulnerability of the sea and its inhabitants.
“After I collect ocean water, I boil it three times,” he said. “The remaining elements change the nature and tone of my acrylics and watercolors. Owners of my paintings actually have a little bit of the Atlantic Ocean on their walls…

Knitters Seek Yarn for Kids' Holiday Gifts at the OCL Manchester Branch
MANCHESTER TOWNSHIP – The ball of yarn that you no longer need or want can bring warm smiles to the faces of Ocean County youngsters in need when the weather turns cold. The Ocean County Library Manchester Branch’s “Chicks with Sticks” will use it to make special handmade gifts in time for the end-of-year holidays.
Each year, the knitting and crocheting group supports the Ocean County Health Department’s collection drive of gloves, mittens, hats and scarves, given at holiday time to children who use the services of OCHD’s various clinics. Yarn is essential for this worthy cause, and supplies are low.
Please help if you can, by dropping off spare skeins of yarn at the OCL Manchester Branch, 21 Colonial Drive. For more information, please call Senior Library Assistant Mary Bridges, (732) 657-7600 or email mbridges@theoceancountylibrary.org.

Veterans Tribute Grows at the Ocean County Library Waretown Branch
WARETOWN – A year ago, a small photo array in the Ocean County Library Waretown Branch honored several former military members in honor of Veterans Day. Today, thanks to community members who have added to it, the display fills an entire wall and is still growing.
Branch Manager Jennifer Lennon placed the first photos before Veterans Day 2023, a gesture for family members and friends who “wore the colors.” It caught the attention of patrons, visitors and neighbors who asked if they might contribute.
“We still have people coming in and taking time to look over the pictures,” Jennifer said. “They ask if everyone is local. Some ask to be added. It makes me happy every time it happens.”
There now are 55 images of local wartime and peacetime veterans, five times the size of the original display, complete with names, branches, and theaters of operation.

The New York City-born artist and actor describes his exhibit as an invitation to “reflect, reconnect, and remember that where there is water, there is life – and with it, the hope for renewal.” He describes his artistic philosophy as “empathy, ecology and the interconnectedness of life – ‘ecosystem over egotism’.”
Alexander takes his affinity a step further, mixing purified water from the Atlantic Ocean into his palette for striking colors and textures and thought-provoking interpretations of the beauty, power and vulnerability of the sea and its inhabitants.
“After I collect ocean water, I boil it three times,” he said. “The remaining elements change the nature and tone of my acrylics and watercolors. Owners of my paintings actually have a little bit of the Atlantic Ocean on their walls…

Knitters Seek Yarn for Kids' Holiday Gifts at the OCL Manchester Branch

Each year, the knitting and crocheting group supports the Ocean County Health Department’s collection drive of gloves, mittens, hats and scarves, given at holiday time to children who use the services of OCHD’s various clinics. Yarn is essential for this worthy cause, and supplies are low.

Veterans Tribute Grows at the Ocean County Library Waretown Branch
WARETOWN – A year ago, a small photo array in the Ocean County Library Waretown Branch honored several former military members in honor of Veterans Day. Today, thanks to community members who have added to it, the display fills an entire wall and is still growing.
Branch Manager Jennifer Lennon placed the first photos before Veterans Day 2023, a gesture for family members and friends who “wore the colors.” It caught the attention of patrons, visitors and neighbors who asked if they might contribute.
“We still have people coming in and taking time to look over the pictures,” Jennifer said. “They ask if everyone is local. Some ask to be added. It makes me happy every time it happens.”
There now are 55 images of local wartime and peacetime veterans, five times the size of the original display, complete with names, branches, and theaters of operation.
“I grew up in a military family. My dad, uncle and grandfather all served. So I have always had a very healthy respect for the military and its traditions,”…

Garden Railway: World Pollinators
Charming miniature trains weave through a landscape teeming with flowers and buzzing with life and populated with artful pollinators made from natural materials like bark, leaves, twigs, hollow logs, mosses, acorns, dried flowers, seeds and stones. Visitors will be wowed by a third of a mile of track featuring seven loops and tunnels with fifteen different rail lines and two cable cars, nine bridges (including a trestle bridge you can walk under!), and bustling model trains, all set in a lovely landscape.

Puzzling Adventures Scavenger Hunt
Consistently rated the best local scavenger hunt since 2016!
Puzzling Adventures are a cross between a scavenger hunt, an adventure race, and an informative self-guided walking tour. Each adventure consists of a series of locations that you are guided to where you are required to answer a question or solve a puzzle to receive your next instruction. Compete as a group, individually or create multiple teams and race each other. Almost all of our adventures are designed to be wheelchair and stroller friendly and all are carefully crafted to be entertaining and informative with something to appeal to all ages. Complete the adventure as quickly as possible to win first place or take your time and enjoy the journey. Price is per team, not per person. Groups can be any size, but small groups are recommended for the best experience.
