Dear ETHPS Members & Friends-
Dog Days of summer are here! Our grass is
brown, like the rest of the area, but our resident deer don't seem to
mind, and our apples are ripening nicely! Please feel free to stop by
anytime and enjoy our pleasant park!
You may have heard that Coca-Cola is
sponsoring some community building funding and one that you may all
participate in is "Vote For Your Favorite Park" - Visit
www.livepositively.com and
you can click on NJ state parks and vote for your favorite (as of today,
Tuesday, the top 2 NJ state parks voted on are Washington Crossing State
Park and Island Beach State Park!) Coke is then giving money to the
state park with the most votes (I am not clear if it is top vote getter
for each state, or just one over-al winner??) Go on and Vote for NJ!!
