Unfortunately the 2011 Seniors Luncheon was cancelled due to the unusual power outage we experienced.
Mark your calendars for 2012! Our 2012 Seniors Luncheon is planned for Saturday, November 3rd! More details to follow closer to the event. We look forward to seeing you there!
A wonderful time was had by all at Glen Gardner's Senior's Luncheon on November 6, 2010 at our very own Glen Gardner Inn. A big THANK YOU goes out to proprietors, Russ and Elaine Mayer, for providing the delicious food and the lovely ambiance.

New Jersey AniMeals delivers pet food to needy owners!
Dog and cat companions are an important part of the family, and even more so to the elderly, disabled or homebound. But this same population can have the toughest time keeping their beloved pets well fed and healthy.
Lynn Henderson of Stanton and Laura Flashberg of High Bridge have created New Jersey AniMeals, and their goal is to help ensure that no animal goes hungry. Think of it as Meals on Wheels for pets.
New Jersey AniMeals' aim is to help Hunterdon County pet owners who can't afford pet food or can't get out to shop due to disabilities, lack of transportation or even a temporary situation such as a recent surgery. Volunteers will deliver free dog and cat food and supplies every month.
New Jersey AniMeals said delivery frequencies could change depending upon the response from those in need and those who want to help.
