Parade Committee to Fund 2021 Beneficiary Shore House NJ and Local Organizations
Rumson, NJ – In light of the continued health pandemic the Rumson St. Patrick’s Day Parade Committee, in conjunction with Rumson Town Council and health department, has cancelled the 2021 Rumson St. Patrick’s Day Parade.
“With an abundance of caution for the health and safety of the community, we cannot hold the parade, but the community still needs the services of our local organizations such as our 2021 beneficiary Shore House NJ. In fact, it’s even more critical that we help support mental health access during this critical time,” notes Jamie McManus, Parade Committee Member. “Although we cannot be together, we can celebrate a significant milestone. Over the past eight years the Parade raised more than $200,000 for local community organizations. We look forward to being able to celebrate together at the 2022 Parade.”

Living in a Land of Illusion - Pt. 2

In the morning hours of January 6, 2021, I submitted my column to the Atlantic Highlands Herald, in which I discussed why our nation faced such division. I talked about big cable-based news media corporations and how they serve up the news specifically tailored to their audience’s comfort levels, rather than straight up news. It is difficult to form opinions and grow when we only hear and see what we want to see. I spoke about tolerance and how we should all work to create dialogs with those that have different ideals and opinions than ours.
Hours after I submitted my column, I received a phone call from a friend (Navy Veteran) who began the conversation by saying “Are you seeing this ______???” I explained that I had been working and was instructed to turn on the news. Then I watched as armed individuals stormed the Capitol building in an attempt to stop the certification of Joe Biden as President of the United States.
