Is Toms River The Best Halloween Town in New Jersey?

in Toms River News

So Halloween is right around the corner and it’s one of the most popular holidays of the year. Millions will dress up, attend parties, trick or treat, attend attractions, and attend parades. Halloween is fun and it’s all about great costumes and candy. Yes for some it’s also a good scare. There are plenty of Halloween attractions around New Jersey that will definitely give you a good shock.

My question is, with so much going on in New Jersey, what is the best Halloween town in the Garden State? I see many towns mentioned by various publications as “the best” Halloween town, but I think we have to consider Toms River, right here in Ocean County as the “best” for Halloween fun.

One of my strongest points to nominate Toms River as Jersey’s Halloween town is the annual Halloween Parade. According to Google “Toms River Halloween Parade is the 2nd largest in the world according to Guinness Book of World Records!” Now that’s not just 2nd largest in New Jersey, 2nd largest in America, it’s the second largest Halloween parade in the world! Only the Greenich Village Halloween Parade in New York City is bigger. So just this fact alone, makes Toms River the Halloween hot spot for me here in New Jersey.

The Jersey Shore’s most haunted house? Strange new developments at Bayshore mansion

in Toms River News

ATLANTIC HIGHLANDS – At a glance it’s a typical old book, a somewhat-worn hardcover shelved among others in the second-floor library of the Strauss Mansion Museum.

But the 500-page “The Victrola Book of the Opera,” published in 1917, did something odd last year.

While giving a tour of the mansion, Atlantic Highlands Historical Society board member Patty Bickauskas spotted the book perched on the edge of the top shelf, cracked open and “just dangling” at a bizarre angle.

in Toms River News

It is one of the most important days of the year and also a reminder that this one day needs to be carried out on the other 364 days on the calendar — and that’s Veterans Day.

We need to continue to find ways to not just remember Veterans and honor their sacrifice and all that they’ve done and do to protect us, but to listen to them — their stories, but, also what their needs are, how we can help, what is needed to help them, and what can be done to help active military members as well.

It’s a great tradition in November each year that schools take time out to hold special ceremonies and events dedicated to Veterans in our area.

Trenton, NJ – The New Jersey Department of Education today announced that Christine Girtain, a Science Teacher and the Director of Authentic Science Research at Toms River High School North and South, has been named the 2022-2023 New Jersey State Teacher of the Year.

Christine, a graduate of Toms River Schools herself, has been teaching science for 28 years, including Earth Science, Biology, and Authentic Science Research. The Authentic Science Research program at the Toms River Regional School District is a three-year elective program that allows students to pursue and conduct independent research on a specific science topic that interests them.

“A cornerstone of my Administration has been fostering STEM learning for our students,” said Governor Phil Murphy. “We know that high-paying, high-demand STEM careers can help young people achieve success after graduating high school. Our students are the future leaders of our state and by preparing them with a strong educational foundation in science, we will help fuel the growth of New Jersey’s economy. Christine embodies the spirit of innovation that we are seeing in our schools and throughout our State. Her hard work and dedication to her students will help prepare our next generation of leaders.
