After a few years of snow on the ground, low temperatures or heavy rain, the clear skies and mild weather was a welcome blessing for everyone able to attend the first night of Hanukkah, the Jewish Festival of Lights.
On Tuesday evening, December 20, a large crowd of local residents including Supervisor Michael Sweeton and Mayor Michael Newhard were present at Lewis Park as Moshe Schwartzberg, owner of Forever Jewelers, began officiating once more at the 18th anniversary of Warwick’s Menorah lighting.

Todd Rundgren, Newton Theatre - Newton, NJ, 09/09/11

for sale
The Newton Theatre celebrated its grand opening night on Friday, September 9, with a sold out performance by Todd Rundgren.
The crowd excitedly packed into the 670 seats, waiting for Rundgren to come out. He briefly entered in from the side door before the show, and waited back stage. The crowd went wild.
Cathy Carney, and Jane Annunziata from Vernon, had front row seats. "For us, there's a great concert in Newton, so we said, 'let's go,'" Carney contributed.
Jonathan "JP" Peirce, one of the theater owners, thanked partner Paul Larena for bringing the project to life.
Peirce also thanked Town Manager Tom Russo, and former Mayor Kristi Becker, who were both instrumental in bringing plans together.
Peirce said many volunteers came forward to help with the theater's rehabilitation, and he thanked them all.
He also recognized the support of his girlfriend, Nancy Kulpinksi, then surprised both Kulpinski and the entire audience, by going down on bended knee onstage to propose to her.
"She said 'yes!'" Peirce exclaimed, as Kulpinski and Peirce hugged onstage.
Rundgren, who played his greatest hits, was accompanied onstage with musicians Kasim Sultan, Prairie Prince, and Jesse Gress.
The next day, the group The Motels, performed onstage, to round off the kickoff weekend.
Other upcoming performances for September: Scott Henderson, Jeff Berlin, and Mike Clark on September 15, Solas on September 23, and Big Apple Comedy Club I on September 24.
