Cranford Calendar
Dear Friends of Hanson Park Conservancy,
Please help HPC honor those we’ve lost to COVID-19 by contributing to a Memorial Bench.
COVID-19 has taken the lives of over 150 residents of Cranford. HPC would like to honor those lives by placing a Memorial Bench next to the Butterfly Garden –– a beautiful and serene place for remembrance and reflection.
All proceeds from this fundraiser will go directly to this memorial. Please contribute any dollar amount that you wish towards this memorial, which remembers our fellow residents. The bench is expected to be installed later this year and will include a plaque in tribute to those we’ve lost.
The unique Hanson Park benches are hand-made by a craftsman in upstate New York. They were chosen as part of the original design which envisioned a passive environmentally sensitive park along the Rahway River.
Tax-exempt contributions can be made by mailing a check directly to HPC PO Box 542, Cranford, NJ 07016, visiting our website at www.hansonparkconservancy.com, or through our Facebook page.
We’d like to thank the entire community of Cranford for always supporting HPC.
Feel free to visit the park at 38 Springfield Avenue, Cranford, NJ. Details on the bench installation will be provided at a later date.

The Roselle Park Police Department has announced that it is hosting National Night Out on Tuesday, August 3rd from 6-9pm.
The National Night Out is an event that promotes police-community partnerships and neighborhood camaraderie.
Chief McCaffery of the Roselle Park Police Department is eager for the event. “I can’t think of a better way to celebrate the hard work of Roselle Park’s police and fire departments than by hosting National Night Out. I’m excited to spend a night with the members of the community that my department works tirelessly to protect every day.”
“This will not only be a fun summer event but an important opportunity for Roselle Park residents of all ages to build a relationship with our police and fire departments,” said Roselle Park Mayor Joseph Signorello. “Here in Roselle Park, our police work hard to protect and serve our community and because of events like this, their relationship with our residents is stronger than ever. Thank you Chief McCaffery for your leadership and I look forward to a great night out.”
The National Night Out will take place at Michael J. Mauri Park, E. Grant Ave., in Roselle Park. For more information, please contact the Casano Community Center at (908)-245-0666.
